This highly sought after and ESSENTIAL album rarely turns up for sale in such FANTASTIC CONDITION! It is so hard to find as good as this example! Don't forget that in 1972,most equipment being used was not kind to the delicate grooves,such as autochangers and small portable players! It was from the collection of Mike Coxhead,a well known,succesful and respected British rock music industry businessman who also worked as a roadie and engineer for bands such as PINK FLOYD,THE WHO and LED ZEPPELIN and many more as well as being a guitarist and keen record collector! The majority of the albums in this collection have not been played for years and are for the most part in Excellent condition,having been hardly played and when they were only played with extreme care on superb equipment! ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND LIKE THIS! The vast majority of copies sold of this album were often played on poor equipment,in many cases taken to parties,not well cared for with no long term investment in mind! An ideal opportunity to add a fine album in super condition to your collection that is bound to rise in value!
