I have played this twice and it is pretty freaky Pink Floyd like stuff with their own twist of course. They did a lot of instrumental and vocal experimentations. If I did not know any better I would have thought them being part of the early British invasion. In my opinion they rank up there with the likes of Pink Floyd, The Beatles, David Bowie, Yes...and etc. This is the first, should I say "Indiana homegrown underground psyche rock" American band I have ever heard that performed like this. Very trippy. Actually, I had never seen any of their albums until now. All the lyrics are printed on the back of the jacket.
This plays well with some background noise. Some pops. It did not have any skips or jumps. The very glossy vinyl does have sleeve and scuff marks and side 2 label had a plastic dyna-label attached to it by the High School's Media Center (more provenance). The sleeve is white. I am grading the vinyl VG- although others say VG. The cello enveloped jacket has the inscriptions on upper right corner, as stated above, and a small catalog label placed at the bottom right front corner by the High School Media Center (provenance again...:)). It does show some wear but not intolerable. It is encased in a clear, yellowed somewhat, cello outer sleeve. I am grading the jacket VG- also and again I am told it could rate higher but rating is really subjective. Bid this early because I may decide to keep it or sell it on the street so to speak. Also, I will consider a good reasonable offer.
