NEAR EXCELLENT / COMPLETE / SAMPLER COPY / FIRST PRESS / VERY RARE

This Electric mixture of HARD ROCK / PROGRESSIVE ROCK / FOLK ROCK / SYMPHONIC ROCK was released by EMI RECORDS as a SAMPLER COPY under the HARVEST LABEL in 1970 and is very notable for including the previously UNRELEASED PINK FLOYD song EMBRYO / WITHOUT THE APPROVAL OF PINK FLOYD and which the band considered was an UNFINISHED SONG, which resulted in THIS ALBUM being PROMPTLY WITHDRAWN FROM SALES, so consequently ALL LATER ISSUES DID NOT SHOW / OR CREDIT THIS SONG, also EMI took their logo off later re- issues of the gate-fold sleeve making this FIRST PRESS / VERY RARE COPY.

This album features such bands as DEEP PURPLE / PINK FLOYD / PRETTY THINGS / BARCLAY JAMES HARVEST / ROY HARPER / plus 13 other Bands / Artists.

This SAMPLER COPY IS NEAR EXCELLENT CONDITION, hardly a spindle mark, plays and sounds great with NO JUMPS / STICKS, with only 2 faint hairlines to show for it's 46 years age which does not affect the GREAT SOUND / QUALITY of this VERY RARE ALBUM.

Gate-fold Record Sleeve is in EXCELLENT CONDITION / NO STORAGE WEAR/ RIPS / TEARS / FULLY READABLE SPINE, / BOTH VINYL RECORDS are still in their ORIGINAL INNER SLEEVES, everything about this SAMPLER COPY / VERY RARE ALBUM is absolutely as it should be.

All vinyl listed is fully played and graded honestly.
