Description
Plastic People Of The Universe - Egon Bondy's LP Prague Sounding like a meeting between Zappa, Henry Cow, and Allen Ginsberg, this is a wild, politically charged chunk of avant-garde agit-prop. Egon Bondy's poetry may not be the most lyrical you've ever heard, but his imagery is striking in its desperation and anger. Lots of honking saxes courtesy of Vratislav Brabenec, who is a big-time blower in the style of German free jazz player Peter Brotzmann. For those whose love for late-'60s/early-'70s progressive rock is boundless, this is absolutely essential. But, even if you're squeamish about anything labeled art rock, don't pass this by; the raw emotions and intense idealism in the face of oppression, despite their being sung in a language you don't speak (there are English lyrics on the LP jacket), are very moving. AMG
This is the original issue in EX condition for the vinyl and VG+ for the sleeve - it's so shiny it's hard to photograph. It comes with the 60 page book which is also EX.
Due to eBay's stupid new postage rules I've had to increase the start price of my records - this is good for international customers because I've been able to discount your shipping but I can't reduce it if you buy more.
Three or more records will be sent Registered at no extra cost to you though.
Like many of the records I'm selling today this came from the large collection of a busy man now aged 60. Due to the size of his collection many of the LPs were only played once or twice from new - some were never played and they were all properly looked after. His musical taste was towards the avant garde/free end of the jazz spectrum. I will be selling selected records from his collection over the next few years so please add me to your favourites list!
