Found this nice collection of EX-/VG+ records in London today. I own a few of these, but not in this good of condition, so today is upgrade day. Or second copy day as the case may be.
VDGG is German, Octopus is Dutch, the rest are UK first pressings.
Surface Noise, Louisville, KY. The owner is a great guy and tells it like it is!
Found what appears to be an unplayed Italian first pressing yesterday at a local shop. Same stampers as the UK pressing.
This is my first time listening to this album. I can definite hear the Genesis influence.
VDGG is my favorite of the somewhat obscure prog bands of the 1970s. Driven by the organ, saxophone, and Peter Hammill’s unique vocals, they sound unlike anything else.
I’ve been on a quest to find their original vinyl. UK 1st playing here. The bass is fantastic!
