The original Electric Muse was released in 1975, a four-LP box set that professed (and, for the most part succeeded) to tell the story of (primarily) English folk music as it was electrified during the '60s and early '70s. A magnificent undertaking, packed with every significant name in the genre's development, it nevertheless sold poorly and slipped out of print after just a few years, to become a Holy Grail of sorts among an ever-growing army of folk-rock aficionados.
" Electric Muse-The Story Of Folk Into Rock " is one for any serious vinyl collectors.
This particular item is well looked after. That said there will be the usual marks on the record sleeve. Also there will be some hairline marks with the record. Please understand this is not a new reissue but the original pressing so it is more 40 years old.
If you can't accept those condition please don't buy and hoping to have partial refunds because it is described here.
Record: EX++ Sleeve: EX-(Original Booklet)
It's time to dislodge my massive collection of records I collect all these years. I have to call it a day after losing my hearing. There are more than 2000 records comprising Classical, Rock and Rock, Folk, Jazz and Pop music. They are mostly the first pressings or second pressing from the era, not the recent reissues which suffer from wrapping and bad sound quality.
