Tasavallan Presidentti Milky Way Moses 12" Vinyl LP Sonet 1974 - Mint Condition Complete with inner booklet with lyrics.
Tasavallan Presidentti (in English President of the Republic) is a Finnish progressive rock band. It was founded in 1969 by guitarist Jukka Tolonen and drummer Vesa Aaltonen. Other founder members were Måns Groundstroem (bass) and Frank Robson (vocals), previously of Blues Section. Juhani Aaltonen (saxophone/flute) had earlier played in Soulset; he was replaced in 1970 by Pekka Pöyry. Eero Raittinen replaced Robson as a vocalist in 1972, the same year as the album Lambertland was released in UK. The album was a tight fusion of jazz and folk rock with highly inventive and imaginative lyrics which charted at the number 7 position in Finland. Milky Way Moses reached number 12 in Finland in 1974. The band toured in continental Europe and the United Kingdom in 1973 and 1974, but Pöyry, stricken with bouts of manic depression, was occasionally replaced with keyboardist Esa Kotilainen on live dates. Tasavallan Presidentti disbanded in 1974
These LPs we have rated as some of the best condition you will ever find. They have come from a private family collector, many of the LPs for sale from this collection have only ever been a handful of times, each.  Each album when played, was catalogued; when it was played, which side and how often.  They have NOT been touched or played since 1980. Stored upright in special LP storage cases. Stored in a heated home nearly 40 years.  There will of course be the signs of natural ageing of the covers and inner sleeves but the records themselves will be mark free. Vinyl Condition: Excellent - virtually unplayed Sleeve: Very Good, clean, uncreased.
