Description
This is the ultimate MONSTER of folk-rock collectable albums
Great progressive folk-rock band Mushroom featuring Aonghus McAnally (Gtr, Wstl, Voc) Cam Lynch (Bodhran, Perc, Voc) Alan Brown (Bass, 12 String Gtr) Michael Power (Org, Harpsic, Moog) & Pat Collins (Manic Violin, Mandolin, Voc)
You've seen the re-issues (no poster, different sleeve, crappy CDs etc etc).......well this is the real deal. An extremely rare vinyl record from my own collection, sold with many regrets - but needs must etc
MUSHROOM "Early One Morning" UK Original Vinyl LP
Hawk Records HALPX.116 circa 1973
Gatefold Sleeve with the brilliant Red & White Mushroom front & back. Inside is a superb psychedelic photo of the band on stage
Inside is the really really rare additional item - when this record occasionally surfaces, it's almost always missing........ the great full-colour poster
Oh and also there's the original Inner Sleeve (white with Black text) that is often missing or completely wrecked - well not this time, baby!
The record itelf has the red Mushroom logo on a white background, and the text in black
Tracks: Early One Morning, The Liathdan, Crying, Unborn Child, Johnny The Jumper, Potters Wheel, Standing Alone, Devil Among The Tailors, Tenpenny Piece, Drowsey Maggie & King Of Alba
Condition
Vinyl - There are a couple of minor surface marks, but they are nothing at all serious. In fact I have taped this record (remember taping..... ?) and I noticed no noise whatsoever on play & tape playback. It's a really nice copy indeed, to be sure
Cover - A very strong VG+....... a couple of minor blemishes which to me look like manufacturing flaws, under the lamination (a bit like you sometimes get with pottery). No tears, no writing, just a very nice copy of a very old and very rare album sleeve.
Poster - VG+ ..... obviously it's folded to fit in the sleeve. No tears or tape, really really great condition
Inner Sleeve- VGC (not Mint, but it's complete, no tears, nice)
Due to it's rarity there is a 'reserve' (minimum bid) on this album. However its a great item to own and to hold. Also (and this is quite unusual for 'rare' records) it's actually really great to listen to as well - great manic fiddle over pych guitar & raw vocals - a real treat for the Fairport Convention and Frank Zappa fan alike !
Surely this will be the best item you'll see on eBay this week, next week, or for many moons to come...go on, treat thyself. Ah ye will............
Good Luck with your bids
