Only once in a while you come across an album that is still as new as it was first sold over the counter so many years ago. Those are special moments and this is such a delightful album.

 

ELUSIVE PROGMONSTER!!!! VINYL IN A UNIQUE NM CONDITION!!!FIRST PRESS TAN COLOUR LABELS!!!THE LATER RED LABEL WAS A SECOND PRESS!!!THIS IS WORTHY OF A FINAL UPGRADE AND AS SUCH A VERITABLE QUALITY ITEM.

 

 

 

In the last few years I have only come across a few copies of this great Caravan album which in my opinion is just as hard to find as "If I Could ...".  Sensational sound quality, NO skips or jumps. NO clicks,  NO crackle or static noise, this is really a stunning heavy vinyl with a beautiful deep gloss. This vinyl has probably just been played once !!! A definite NM!!!  There are NO hairlines, NO scuffs, NO marks. Don't be mistaken, this is a top quality vinyl, worthy of inclusion into a top collection!!! Inspected under an intense lightsource and angled. I'm listening to side Two as I am writing this... It is absolutely OUTSTANDING quality songcraft with fantastic guitar freakouts on track 2 .

 

I have played this in FULL> The replay is ASTOUNDING!!! I first played for a general listen and a second time for a more in-depth observation. Of course there are NO skips, jumps, clicks or sticks. Unbelievably as it may sound there is not any  background noise at all, there are no hairlines or scuffs at all!! Impossible to find for this 1972 vinyl!!!  This is the ultimate upgrade for this stunning album!!! Great songcraft and a strange thing really that Caravan did not break into the big league like Genesis and Yes.  I played this on my Technics turntable with a Linn cartridge and through my very revealing B&W three way speakers!!!

 

Vinyl: NM , a final upgrade. This is a seriously desirable album and very rare in this formidable condition!!! For all my regulars in Italy, Russia, Japan and the States, you know who you are, it does not get better than this. I sold an NM of this album 2 years ago and thought it would be impossible to better. But here it is, an absolutely pristine vinyl AND gatefold sleeve.

Gatefold sleeve: NM+ Gatefold sleeve. Pristine !!!!!! NO WEAR AT ALL!!! Not even any rubbing on the edges. NO creases, NO writing, NO marks, this is the very best sleeve left on this planet, no doubt whatsoever. The winner of this auction is going to salivate over this!!!!

This comes with the original blue printed polylined inner sleeve in EX++ condition.

This is a unique investment opportunity!!! Finding this album in any condition at all is nearly impossible, LEAVE ALONE IN THIS STUNNING NM CONDITION!!!

 

Labels are NM with only minor spindling.

 

Important : Due to the value and supreme condition of this album it will be sent registered and insured.

This an excellent investment opportunity!!! Any questions please ask me and I will try to answer soon.
