Description
PLEASE READ BEFORE BIDDING: Please read the entire auction listing, including shipping costs, before writing to ask a question. OUR GOAL IS CUSTOMER SATISFACTION. In order to meet that goal, we will ALWAYS work with our customers on any concerns that may arise. Because of that dedication, there should be no need to open a resolution dispute before working with us. Please keep in mind, we would prefer to continue to provide you the opportunity to acquire the rare music we present each and every week. Payment is required within seven days. We mail all paid items ONE WEEK after auctions end. Our listings are time consuming in detail and we are often traveling to find these gems, which at times delays the delivery schedule by a day or two. We ALWAYS process and ship every paid order. We have no control over parcels once they are mailed from our local Post Office. Overseas mail to some countries (Italy, Russia, France, in particular) has become very slow. Opening a dispute for slow mail is unacceptable.

CREAM meets TRAFFIC in BLIND * FAITH
This is a 1969 first press TOP COPY and SUPER RARITY of the so-called "banned" cover issue that (then, 50+ years later) drew negative reaction within the USA ...WHEN certain blockheads couldn't wrap their minds around the art statement presented, and labeled it something that it wasn't,
no not at all ...
Nevertheless, the 1970 "ATCO" (USA version) quickly scrambled,
re-releasing a totally ((inferior)) Blind Faith cover ...
.............................................................
BLIND * FAITH
Was infarct, as cursed at its very inception by being billed as a super-group.
.............................................................
This album was truly a pity, because for all the classic beauty of its only recording, Blind Faith was a band that never had a legitimate opportunity to come together as a performing ensemble. Hyped to the hilt and rushed into a massive, chaotic tour, the band fell apart after its final American concerts when Eric Clapton packed it in..............
BLIND * FAITH scored a big hit with its evocative "Can't Find My Way Home," featuring Winwood's raspy falsetto, Clapton's poignant guitar, and Baker's pulsing brush work. But then, every song on BLIND FAITH has become a classic FM radio staple. "Presence of the Lord" with Winwood's fervent vocals, "Had to Cry Today" (featuring Clapton's dense, multi-tracked blues leads), and the jacked-up rockabilly grooves on "Well Alright," are all good examples. But the band never had much of a life outside the studio, and after Blind Faith folded, Winwood and Grech joined Baker's Air Force before reforming Traffic. Clapton began moving away from extended improvisations into more tightly structured song forms on his first solo album, ERIC CLAPTON, and proceeded in the same direction with Derek & The Dominos. Some fans (here) highlight the long 'Do What You Like" (a Ginger Baker composition) as the albums finest moments, complete with percussion work like only the master can supply....
