GENTLE GIANT, Octopus (Vertigo 6360 080, UK 1972) The 4th album from the "Shulman Brothers" - an absolute classic in the 70ies UK prog direction, released in December 1972..........Here as UK 2nd "Excellency Music" pressing from the same year....... comes in non laminated gatefold cover with original "swirl" inner sleeve..........  PS: "Discogs" says that the "Alucard" pressing is the very 1st release, don´t know it really exactly............


The vinyl is in excellent (ex) condition..........looks top, here and there some faint tiny surface cracklings in the background are hearing in places - but NOT in a loud or disturbing way........
The gatefold cover is in excellent(ex) condition also........showing only tiny wear on corners and has an "Import" sticker on front cover (see scan)..........
