Although Sweet Child is usually cited as the group's high-water mark, Basket of Light finds them at their most progressive and exciting. Highlights of this album -- which actually reached the Top Five in the U.K. -- include the buzzing jazz dynamics of "Light Flight," their moving rendition of the traditional folk song "Once I Had a Sweetheart," their reinvention of the girl group smash "Sally Go Round the Roses," and "Springtime Promises," one of their finest original tunes
Side One:
Light Flight (Theme From "Take Three Girls")
Once I Had A Sweetheart
Springtime Promises
Lyke-Wake Dirge
Train Song
Side Two:
Hunting Song
Sally Go Round The Roses
The Cuckoo
House Carpenter
LABELS: NEAR MINT
An Immaculate set of labels with barely a spindle trace to be seen
VINYL Visual: EXCELLENT
Both surfaces shine like new with just some audibly harmless light misting.
A very strong EXCELLENT
VINYL Audio: NEAR MINT
Plays beautifully throughout with just the (very) occasional tick, nothing really and nothing else to fault the crystal clear, clean sound
SLEEVE: EXCELLENT
The cover has storage rub but is clean and unmarked and all spine text is clear and bold
