Description

Includes original Decca company inner sleeve.

This is the first album by "EAST OF EDEN" called "Mercator Projected" - take one electric violin which blows rock, and Bartok, add one flute from the East, mix in Sumerian saxophones, bass, drums, guitar and liquid word pictures and you get "East of Eden".

Vinyl is in excellent condition apart from a small scratch on Track 1, Side 1 where there is an audible light click for around 30secs.  As I say, apart from that, the rest of the record is near mint.

Red & white Deram labels are near mint.

The original front-laminated cover is is in very good + condition.  Has some ring-wear on the front but very little wear to the edges or spine - no splits or tears.

  1. Northern Hemisphere - Decline and fall of Western Civilization and Violin Pie
  2. Isadora - Flute and soprano dance
  3. Waterways - Nilotic landscape in 5/4

    Side Two:
  1. Bathers - Lake Balaton is in Hungary
