Description

Lovely UK folk concept album consisting entirely of self-written songs, issued in 1974 by the private Mime label.  Very homemade package, in fact the flimsy, slightly oversized sleeve (12.5" x 12") is made from recycled card!  Includes a large (21" x 15") fold-out illustrated lyric insert (scan shows a small detail of it) with a contact address written on the back.  Very limited localised issue, this seems to be only the second copy to surface, and I'd guess that only a couple of hundred or so were made, possibly less.

Due to a minor pressing fault (it was clearly a low-budget pressing), there are about eight or nine clicks during the track 'William Harvey', otherwise I'd say that the sleeve, insert and disc are all in Ex condition.
