Description
- Dave Mason was a co-founder of the legendary 1960's supergroup Traffic along with Steve Winwood and Jim Capaldi. This 1970 album is Mason's solo debut and it was a huge hit. It features guest appearances by Leon Russell, Jim Keltner, Carl Radle, Delaney & Bonnie, Jim Gordon, Rita Coolidge, Jim Capaldi, and John Barbata. It was released on Blue Thumb Records (BST-19) and was co-produced by Tommy LiPuma.
- The unique packaging helps make this album stand the test of time. It has a special tri-fold, die-cut jacket that was also designed as a wall hanger (note the hole in the top hat). The vinyl fit in a pocket inside and originally came without an inner sleeve. I've added a round bottom inner sleeve to protect the record. Please note the initials written on the Side A label of the disc and other faint writing on the jacket as can be seen in the last picture.
- This album was pressed with multi-color Splash vinyl. Only about 30% of the first 1970 pressing was produced with this "spin art" or "marbled" vinyl. The rest were done on ordinary black vinyl.
- Free shipping is included in the corrugated album mailer seen in the last picture.
- In addition to its original packaging, this album will come with a high quality Anti-Static Round Bottom Sleeve to hold the vinyl disc and a sturdy 3 mil. polyethylene Archival Quality Outer Sleeve.
- This vintage 12" vinyl album has been sitting upright on a shelf in climate controlled storage for the past 50 years. It has not been played for decades other than a quick test spin for this sale which found no skips or obvious flaws. Like all used records it should be cleaned with an anti-static brush to minimize the occasional pops that are part of playing vinyl albums. Buyers should note that this is a well-cared for but used record and it will have some minor imperfections.
