graded VG++/EX- for a strict Record Collector magazine grading system


label: The label it's light blue matrix NR 10788 and it's in very nice conditions and I can't see any wear also around the spindle hole or oher sign of wear hence EX it's the higher grade for an used vinyl.
cover: the cover it's the original pasted on with a blue negative photo of Mark Mc Donald himself on front and the group notes on the back. It's still in the original shrink and the glued paper sheets front and back are a bit wavy for maybe some more humidity hence my VG++ grade because for the rest the cover it's perfect with perfect squared corners.
vinyl:The vinyl it's great conditions too with 1 very very light mark on side 1 ... I have played it in full and the sound it's perfect without crackles in any spot but I prefere give an EX- for this mark, the vinyl appear shining and close to unplayed.
review: This is an original copy of a legendary album pressed in 250 copies only with this pasted on sheets over a white disco cover and then other 250 copies have been pressed with just the plain white disco covers. Musically he seems to have been influenced by Hawkwinds or by  Pink Floyd sometimes  but he have basically a totally proper heavy psychedelic sound with 2 keyboarders,  2 electric lead guitarists and one it's Marcus himself, 2 bass players, 2 rythms guitarists. The sound it's a full psychedelic with great electric guitar solos... sometime spacey  and it's really enjoyable for a psych/progressive serious collector with roots also in the psych songwriters as maybe a some years later Gandalf The Grey ... because lirycs and melody seems to be very important here especially in the side two ... it's very hard to find for album ...this is a decent price so...Don't miss! SORRY for the reserve price but this is really the minimum I can accept for a so rare item and this is a correct auction very different the many "pushed up" auctions I see all around! Please open your eyes!
