** A Holy Grale album for Jazz & MIKE TAYLOR QUARTET Collectors **

MIKE TAYLOR QUARTET - Pendulum

Very scarce 1966 Lansdowne Series original UK 6 track vinyl record. On the early blue Columbia label. Original UK 1st press vinyl LP record with on the early black/blue COLUMBIA Lansdowne Series record label from 1966.

A lovely copy of this very rare and very important LP. Absolutely essential for any collector of British jazz, Taylor's influence on the scene cannot be underestimated. Neil Ardley was an early supporter and via collaborators Jack Bruce and later, Ginger Baker, even the first 'supergroup', Cream. That he only lived to record two LPs remains a tragedy. Taylor's work was visionary, no doubt, pushing even Bill Evans. Evans lived to make many many records... Mike Taylor left us with only two... and they sold hardly at all. Bid hard on this short 5 day auction, you'll not see one of these in this condition for a long time. Fabulous. You will not be disappointed. Sorry... I have said more than usual... but for good reason. Check all the pics.. and make the most of the enlargement facility! I do not use stock photo's, what you see is what you get. The purge of the collection continues.....
