VERY NICE ORIGINAL COPY WHICH PLAYS WELL AND SOUNDS GREAT

THE RECORD IS HOUSED IN THE ORIGINAL MATT GATEFOLD SLEEVE WITH INTERNAL BAND POP-UP

The group's second album, with Anderson (vocals, flute, acoustic guitars, keyboards, balalaika), Martin Barre (electric guitar, flute), Clive Bunker (drums), and Glen Cornick (bass), solidified the group's sound.
There is still an element of blues, but except for "A New Day Yesterday," it is far more muted than on their first album, as Mick Abrahams' blues stylings are largely absent from Martin Barre's playing.
The influence of folk music also began to manifest itself ("Look Into the Sun"). The instrumental "Bouree," which could've been an early Blood, Sweat & Tears track, became a favorite concert number, although at this point Anderson's flute playing on-stage needed a lot of work; by his own admission, he just wasn't that good.
Bassist Cornick would last through only one more album, but he gets his best moments here, on "Bouree."
As a story song with opaque lyrics and jarring tempo changes, "Back to the Family" is the forerunner to Thick as a Brick
Side One:
A New Day Yesterday
Jeffrey Goes To Leicester Square
Bourée
Back To The Family
Look Into The Sun
Side Two:
Nothing Is Easy
Fat Man
We Used To Know
Reasons For Waiting

LABELS: EXCELLENT
Clean, fresh and unmarked labels with some spindle rub
VINYL Visual: EXCELLENT
Some light marks/scuffs visible but none of these have any major significance
VINYL Audio: EXCELLENT
Plays extremely well throughout and sounds great.
No groove-wear or distortion noted just an occasional low-level tick and a touch of background between some of the tracks.
All-in-all a really, really nice playing copy
SLEEVE: VERY GOOD
Apart from some rub to the edges and spine and grubbiness to the white back (the original owners name is rubbed out in the top corner) the cover is good and solid with the internal pop-up in perfect condition
