Description
Various Artists - US (UK - Village Thing VTSAM15 - 1972) Ex-/Ex - cover listed first
Fantastic and rare Village Thing label compilation released in September 1972, includes the previously unreleased Sun Also Rises track 'Fafnir And The Knights'. A wonderful collection that captures the spirit of this legendary label.
Dave Evans - 'Only Blue' / Tight Like That 'West End Rag' / Wizz Jones 'Beggarman' / Fred Wedlock 'The Folker' / Steve Tilston 'I Really Wanted You' / Ian A. Anderson 'One More Chance' / Tucker Zimmerman 'Another Normal Day' / Pigsy Hill Light Orchestra 'Sweet Miss Emmaline' / Sun Also Rises 'Fafnir And The Knights' / Hunt & Turner 'Hold me Now'.
The metallic silver cover with it's blue overprint was notoriously unstable and vulnerable and consequently unworn copies are practically impossible to find. This is as close as you'll get to an 'as new' copy !
Lovely unlaminated sleeve is clean and uncreased with just the merest hint of rubbing at the top (see image) no other marks. Edges are tight and unworn. Labels are clean and free from any spindle traces. Heavy Transatlantic manufactured vinyl is clean and shiny with no marks at all - looks unplayed !. I'm certain you'd be very hard pressed to find another copy in this sort of condition.
