Very nice copy of this solo album from 1974 by Soft Machine virtuoso Robert Wyatt featuring many of his bandmates in support. It's an intriguing mix of experimental progressive rock, jazz and studio wizardry, and one of Wyatt's most acclaimed albums. 

The sleeve has a touch of ringwear but no major damage and it grades VG++. 

The vinyl is bright and glossy and while there is the odd mark or hairline it plays extremely well and grades excellent. 

The Virgin 'twin' labels are in excellent shape with the colours rich and full, and the vinyl is housed in a new lined white inner sleeve, although the original more worn inner is also included. 

Attractive start price for an increasingly collected album.
