Description
Gordon Giltrap was born in 1948 and started to learn the guitar at age 12. Never receiving any formal tuition on the instrument, he gradually developed his own style and technique, considered unique by many other guitarists. His musical career started to take off in the 1960s, playing live in London in the burgeoning folk scene, alongside contemporaries such as Bert Jansch (who greatly influenced the young guitarist), John Renbourn and Mike Oldfield. At age 18 he signed to Transatlantic Records and released this album in 1968. It has a laminated flipback sleeve, making it a first pressing. It is very hard to find original copies of this album in any condition and this one is NM. The cover is very clean but has a very small tear in the upper right corner making it VG. As I said...VERY hard to find in this condition. Good luck with your bids .......................PLEASE check my other auctions for more rarities and obscurities of the vinyl variety.
