RARE 1971 ORIGINAL U.S. PRESSING!

"STRING CHEESE- s/t"

1971 Woden Nickel WNS-1001 label

The condition of the gatefold cover is EX+.  The disc is a M- and plays great!

Original 1971 first pressing VINYL in thick grainy gatefold cover of ultra cool and happening electrified folk-psych that has a HIGH rating with collectors ...led by female/male vocals and rich harmonies...The Chicago hippie crew "String Cheese" could have been the next "It's A Beautiful Day" with proper backing and encouragement. Like that San Francisco band, String Cheese’s sound was steeped in sparkling hippie subject matter, strongly delivered by chanteuse Sally Smaller and aided by electric violin & acidy guitar leads. Unfortunately, their debut album was also their last. Lead, 12-string guitarist and co-vocalist Lawrence Wendelken wrote most of the songs on String Cheese, and there are some truly tasteful arrangements contained within. "Soul Of Man", for example, benefits from lush, live arrangements with folksy acoustic guitar picking and sparse drums, while a Larry and Sally voice trade offs and harmonies shine on the winding road that is the human experience. Meanwhile, the harpsichord-led intro to "Woke Up This Morning" comes straight out of a renaissance court, progressing to a summery, psychedelic electric sitar jam with lyricism glowing in sunshine-induced optimism. There is some serious talent on display here. The winding acid guitar throughoutthe album is a highlight ...

After their debut album failed to register a blip in the marketplace due only to poor promotion and not lack of talent, "String Cheese" promptly faded away.

There will be no reserve and a low minimum bid of $19.99!  Bid with confidence!  GOOD LUCK!!
