Some words on this issue: CZAR: “S/T” (Fontana – 6309.009) Original first press UK copy of this fantastic, dark Crimson inspired heavy prog of the highest echelon. 4 piece outfit whose sole album showcases brilliant organ/ mellotron and guitar interplay, spread over long tracks where they let the beast out and short ones where some of their pop sensibility shimmers through, an element that most prog bands sadly lacked but Czar succeeded in pulling of convincingly. Cover has only one tiny upper right corner perforated hole and no lamination creasing and is exceptionally clean, the disc itself has a couple of non-sounding hairlines, NO damages or scratches and plays solid EX~NM all way through. In all a great and solid keeper copy. Tough to find in such a nice nick as this one here. Great copy.

Our grading scale: Mint/ Near Mint/ Excellent/ VG++/. We don’t sell anything below VG++. VG++ grade is basically that the record has some scuffs and has wear. Excellent: record has hardly no visible defects and is preserved with care and attention, the condition most collectors take pride in to file away. Near Mint: a dash below mint, just perfect. Mint: like new.
