Description
Masterchord MCL 412. This record was recorded in 1983, and was signed by five of the band members. I can identify four of the five signatures - I can't make out the fifth. The four I can identify are in the center of LP, and from left to right, they include Colin Mason, Alastair Hume, Simon Carrington, and Bob Chilcott. The autograph on the bottom appears to begin with a "C", the first name possibly ending in "y", the last name ending in "w" or "n".
The gatefold jacket in excellent condition with very light corner wear, little to no edge wear, no marks (except signatures), rings or splits. LP stored in clear plastic inner sleeve and looks great, no scratches seen and grading it NM. Also present in the lyric sheet.
From Wikipedia on this group from the UK:
"The King's Singers are a British a cappella vocal ensemble founded in 1968. They are named after King's College in Cambridge, England, where the group was formed by six choral scholars. In the United Kingdom, their popularity peaked in the 1970s and early 1980s. Thereafter they began to reach a wider international audience, appearing frequently on The Tonight Show Starring Johnny Carson in the U.S. In 1987, they were prominently featured as guests on the Emmy Award winning ABC-TV special Julie Andrews: The Sound of Christmas.
Today the ensemble travels worldwide for its performances, appearing in around 125 concerts each year, mostly in Europe, the U.S. and the Far East, having recently added the People's Republic of China to their list of touring territories. In recent years the group has had several UK appearances at the Royal Albert Hall Proms and concerts as part of the Three Choirs Festival and the City of London Festival."
