Description

Everyone Involved - Either/Or. Original 1972 Limited Private Pressing + Poster. Arcturus.
"Everyone Involved was a hippie collective formed by well-trained musicians, assembled by Alan Wakeman and Michael Klein (Solid British Hat Band) to record a set of environmental protest songs. Some of the members of this London-based recording commune included vocalist Freya Hogue (ex-Sunforest), guitar player Lucinha Turnbull (later with Cilibrinas Do Eden/Rita Lee), and bass player Arnaldo "Liminha" Filho (Os Mutantes) among others. Either/Or is a perfectly played and professionally recorded album (something very unusual for a private pressing). Top-notch psychedelic folk-rock/acid-folk with male-female vocals, flute, electric-acoustic guitars, bass, drums and some freaky/weird arrangements/effects. The album is now also famous for including "A Gay Song," which is probably the earliest known example of a pro-open gay song. The original pressing of 1,000 copies was never distributed or sold at stores" (from forcedexposure.com).
This is from the original pressing of 1000 copies. I had some responsibility for booking bands for my college. Everyone Involved visited to see if they could get a gig and gave me this album.
It was my habit to play albums once to tape them, then put them away. As far as I recall, this hasn't been played for over 45 years. The vinyl appears to be in great condition. The plain white embossed cover has some discolouration but no rips. Same goes for the poster.
I have photographed this as best I can (sorry for the quality), please study the photos to satisfy yourself that my description is honest, but if you have any questions, please feel free to message me (no offers please).

I will package this in purpose-bought packaging with an extra corrugated cardboard stiffener, and send it Royal Mail tracked 48 with signature and up to £100 loss/damage cover. If bids go over £100, I will send it Royal Mail Special delivery to ensure that there is adequate loss or damage cover. (Ebay wouldn't let me choose either of these, so please ignore their postage description).
