RARE ... Original 1975 rarity, first pressings like this go for three figures... it's an impressive limited local pressing released on a tiny label in England...
Thankfully , there is no commercial potential.
Rather it's a quite consistent throughout heavy-edged hard psych LP; all guitar oriented featuring strong self composed material ...
Musically, this is fantastic progressive hard rock, featuring a highlight within the cool tracks a leader tone of strong guitar and some sound effects, mainly with great song writing. Obviously, this will appeal mostly to hard rock fans, but psych and progressive aficionados may be interested as well.
Interesting dynamics are the rattling low-pitched mud-sandy harsh electric guitar and the fill-in riffs structuring this underground heavy-psych artifact.
There are usual angular minimalist repetitions in Jimi Hendrix '69 guitar-work qualities, but also much variance, a bit like in some krautrock. The playing seems very smooth, easy, and sharp, but bending, nicely crooked. Basically it's like the right sound in the cool old early '70s heavy psych grooves. In the words of Frank Zappa, "it really makes it" ...
So usually most will dislike underground-rock being called honest, but this is rather honest in a good way.

CONDITION: The cover: rated: M- very scarce UK fragile production ... this is as about as nice as you'll find ... we paid dearly to secure this copy, decidedly letting it go due to the issues with the one track in play grade below, otherwise, no way would let go ... if you can get past the description below take advantage of owning a gem. Recently located an "EX" copy at $500, and so there ya go... there are no delete marks, no split seams, no bends, and no writing ...
The vinyl: Rated: most all is clean "EX" (excellent) ***except for third track on side one has needle damage that contains noticeable obtrusive ticks (VG-) ... the rest of the LP plays very enjoyable without issue... both UK Birds Nest labels are clean
A cool addition to anyone's music library!
