      I could describe this further in my own words, but I’ll let Scott and Felberg do that for me, as reviewed in The Archivist:

      “Spectacular art rock from Austin, Texas band featuring Kemper and Bekah Crabb…[Previously] known as ‘Redemption’…by 1980, their artistic vision had grown a hundred-fold with this album of what they termed ‘apocalyptic rock’. The striking cover art as well as the music is full of imagery of Tolkien, wizards, dragons, castles and winged ships. An incredible variety of instruments were employed…(37 in all!), all described on the elaborate fold-out insert that’s bordered with runic letters. Heavy at times (Morning’s Anthem) but mostly moody and melodic, often with a renaissance or medieval quality to it...Creativity par excellence”.

      You get the idea. Don’t miss the opportunity to own this RARE GEM!

      CONDITION (See GRADING GUIDELINES below for further details)

    • VINYL: VG++
    • COVER: VG++
    • LABELS: VG++

      • LP GRADING GUIDELINES

    • Guidelines reflect TYPICAL factors determining grade - variations are noted in the description.
    • Please note I DO NOT USE EXCELLENT (EX) as a grade.
    • Please note my VG and G grades for vinyl generally are BETTER THAN GOLDMINE'S
    • Flaws for ALL covers graded VG or less, and labels graded VG+ or less, are noted in the description.
    • Vinyl graded VG or less is appropriately spot play-graded to assure sound quality.
    • Grades below G are not listed, as I typically do not sell merchandise in such condition.
    • Intermediate grades (e.g., NM-, VG/VG+, G+) are used, as applicable.

    • MINT Factory Sealed; cover virtually flawless

    • NM+ (Near Mint Plus) - Factory sealed with minor cover flaws, OR an otherwise mint LP recently opened by me and played in spots for demonstration purposes

    • NM (Near Mint) - vinyl, cover and labels nearly flawless

    • VG+ (Very Good Plus) - what many refer to as "excellent"; pretty close to NM. Full or nearly full-gloss vinyl with a few minor surface or sleeve marks; possibly one or a couple small, light scuffs or scratches (if basically inaudible) on an otherwise NM piece. Expect minimal or very slight (at worst) surface noise in spots. Cover has very slight general wear, OR minimal wear and a couple of very minor flaws (noted as applicable in the description)

    • VG (Very Good) - Vinyl still very shiny, has a few light scuffs, sleeve marks and hairline scratches. Expect only slight surface noise in spots

    • VG- (Very Good Minus) - Vinyl still shiny or very shiny, has a few light scuffs, surface marks and/or small scratches, plus some sleeve marks and hairline scratches. Expect slight surface noise that's noticeable but NOT overwhelming.

    • G (Good) - Vinyl typically still shiny (sometimes very shiny); has some scuffs and some surface marks, generally a few or some light scratches, plus lots of sleeve marks and hairline scratches. Expect some surface noise throughout that's noticeable but NOT overwhelming - NO skips, sticks, heavy scuffs, deep scratches, excessive noise, or loud pops or clicks (unless noted in description)
