Description

 

This is a great one. You are looking at the very rare jazz-prog self titled LP by BEN, on the highly-collectible UK Vertigo label. This LP is from 1971, housed in a non-laminated gatefold cover and featuring the "swirl" label that looks amazing in action. This has machine-stamped matrix numbers reading 6360052 (A and B), but is probably a second pressing due to the lack of writing on the spine and the color scheme on the front being orange rather than purple. Still, this is an obscenely rare LP and this is a beautiful copy. Vinyl is the strongest EX; it  looks super-mint in normal daylight, and under a harsh bulb one can see only the most miniscule of hairlines from sleeve removal. REALLY nice. Cover is also a strong EX with only the tiniest amount of visible wear on the back side, and two tiny stickers on the upper left of the back as well. Do not miss out on this one!
