Some words on this issue: KHAN: “Space Shanty” (King Records Japan/ DERAM – SL-288) Rare 1st issue Japanese pressing of 1976. Khan was recorded during early 1972 and employed Egg keyboardist Dave Stewart, Arzachel mastermind and future Gong gun slinger Steve Hillage as the key protagonists. By turns mellow and forthright, and possessing something of the tone of post-Syd Pink Floyd, the music floats away on Hillage’s singular guitar playing, while the lyrics are charged with a beautifully described emotional energy. Space Shanty is an impressive work for Hillage to have opened his account with, a Canterbury-influenced mix of progressive and jazz-rock. An old skool classic that has lost none of its initial luster and bewitching beauty. Killer in its field. Top copy Japanese 1st original pressing.

New to the e-bay game but long experience in selling records so bid with confidence.

Our grading scale: Mint/ Near Mint/ Excellent/ VG++/. We don’t sell anything below VG++. VG++ grade is basically that the record has some scuffs and has wear. Excellent: record has hardly no visible defects and is preserved with care and attention, the condition most collectors take pride in to file away. Near Mint: a dash below mint, just perfect. Mint: like new.
