GENTLE GIANT
"ACQUIRING THE TASTE"
VERTIGO RECORDS # 6360 041
Matrices end '1 / 3'
************************************
A special psych album in it's original 1971 copy issue - rare and in really great condition.
Through the 1960's 'Simon Dupree And The Big Sound' cut several excellent singles and a soulful psych album too. Despite the name then, the 3 Schulman were the core band-members, with no person named Simon Dupree apparently!
It's a rather misleading and olde fashioned moniker too, which needed changing for their progressive revolution in style.
Fantastic progressive folk-psych ensued, and imaginative music was abounding - this band pushed the envelope, as was their unique, stated ethic!
Gentle Giant made their own style over several releases.
This is certainly in very respectable quality condition, playing and sounding great.
Vinyl UK flat, solid quality heavy pressing.
CONDITION;
The UK pressing is strong
EX with lovely shine.
Labels are in clean EX condition, no pen, stickers or tears.
The GATEFOLD COVER is VG+ overall. Quite clean and bright, a small sticker tear on the rear, and on the front at the top corner.
See photos.
