Description

This is a fine original U.S. pressing copy of the debut LP by Philadelphia psych group the Mandrake Memorial, released in 1968.  The group forged a unique jazz-inflected sound with electric harpsichord and thickly distorted guitar, and became a popular regional opening act.  (According to the Wikipedia page on them, they even appeared on TV with Pink Floyd.)  Highlights of their debut include "Bird Journey," "Here I Am," "Dark Lady," and "To a Lonely."  The jacket has a cutout hole, and is otherwise close to pristine with light corner wear -- EX(+).  The disc is clean with some light scraping and scuffing, and plays with occasional light surface noise (EX+).

I’m in the process of selling off a large personal collection amassed over two decades. All discs have been stored in plastic lined inner sleeves separate from their jackets. The jackets have been stored in plastic sleeves. I have play graded (spot checked) discs except where otherwise noted.

If you'd like to order multiple items, I'll happily combine them so that you won't have to pay multiple shipping charges.
