'Close To The Edge'

Atlantic, UK, 1972

K50012

ONCE AGAIN the band deliver a masterpiece of progressive rock leaving no stone unturned in their quest to take this music to the very outer limits of human possibilities. Side one is turned over to just a single track, the gargantuan 'Close To The Edge' whilst side two contains just two more songs in 'And You And I' and 'Siberian Khatru'. You'll find full-on progging here with all the trimmings and more - a sound to behold!

Beautiful original UK pressing - the cover is almost a piece of art in itself.

Pressing: Atlantic, UK, 1972

Vinyl: Nice condition. Only minor signs of use. A few spindle marks and some light wear and hairline scuffs visible in bright light mainly due to sliding in and out of the inner sleeve. Grades as Ex

Cover: Minimal signs of use. Original 1st press textured gatefold cover designed by Roger Dean. Sharp corners, no dings, no bends, no ring wear, no seam splits and no creases. Solid spine - a little flattened but straight and crisp. Beautiful and impossible to find like this 41 years after release. Grades as MINT-!

Inserts: Original green lyric inner sleeve with a little wear.
