Description
COMPANY CAINE: Dr Chop.
Only 300 ever pressed.
Extremely rare Oz classic in very rare like new condition.
Dr Chop, mostly produced by Ross Wilson, with liner notes by rock writer David "Dr Pepper" Pepperell.
Comprising a mixture of live and studio tracks, it's especially valuable for the inclusion of the full-length versions of two songs from the Product era -- "Dear Carolyn and Now I'm Together. the 1971 single tracks (produced by Gus McNeil) which were only released in shortened form at the time.
Dr Chop is one of the rarest and most collectible of all Australian recordings.
According to musician Keith Glass, Pepperell's Lamington label was teetering on the verge of collapse when the record was made -- hence the half-live, half-studio configuration. The band (unwillingly) had to compromise on this format because Lamington simply couldn't afford more studio time.
Only about 300 copies were ever pressed before the label folded, thus accounting for its rarity.
Excellent Condition.
