TOWARDS THE BLUES
My apologies to e-bayer who bid on my record. I had an error on the listing and did not want to mislead anyone. Sorry!
The error was on label description, so please check it out.
THIS IS MOST LIKELY THE BEST PROGRESSIVE BLUES ALBUM EVER RELEASED IN AUSTRALIA.
THE BAND PLAYING ON IS:
MATT TAYLOR (VOC, HARP)
PHILL MANNING - GUITAR
BARRY SULLIVAN (BIG GOOSE) - BASS
BARRY HARVEY (LITTLE GOOSE) - DRUMS
THE RECORD WAS ISSUED AS A GATEFOLD SLEEVE WITH A PICTURE OF THE BAND COVERING THE INSIDE.
ACCORDING TO THE HISTORIANS THERE ARE 2 DIFFERENT SLEEVES, ONE HAVING THE MIRROR VIEW OF THE THE OTHER.
AS I'M NOT SURE WHICH ONE IS THE FIRST, I TOOK A PICTURE SO YOU CAN MAKE UP YOUR MIND IF IT IS THE ONE YOU ARE CHASING.
IF IS THE MUSIC YOU ARE AFTER HERE IT IS A GREAT COPY.
THERE ARE FEW HAIRLINES VISIBLE ONLY UNDER STRONG LIGHT, WHICH ARE NOT DIMINISHING THE QUALITY OF THE SOUND MUCH, AND ONE LIGHT SCUFF, ON THE FIRST TRACK. THIS "DELIVERS" SOME SUCCESSIVE "POPS", LIKELY ON A PART OF RECORD WITH A PRETTY HEAVY SOUND. A FEW LIGHT CLICKS ON TRACK 2.
THE COVER HAS A SMALL PEALED AREA ON THE FRONT. APART OF THIS I EASILY CAN CALL IT NEAR MINT.
SO, IS NOT PERFECT (UNFORTUNATELY!), BUT IS A COPY I CAN SAY IS CLOSE TO EXCELLENT.
MADE IN: AUS 1971
LABEL: INFINITY SINL 934295
RECORD CONDITION: RECORD LOOKS EXCELLENT- UNDER STRONG LIGHT - SEE ABOVE DETAILED DESCRIPTION
COVER CONDITION: SEE ABOVE
SEE PICTURES, THEY ARE PICTURES OF THE ITEM FOR SALE (AS ALWAYS!!!)
LABELS: AS SEEN ON THE PICTURES THERE IS A RUBBER STAMPED NAME FADED ON EACH LABEL. SEE PICTURES..
UNFORTUNATELY I CAN'T PLAY ALL THE RECORDS I'M LISTING.
