FOLKAL POINT - SAME - MIDAS UK 1972 MONSTER RARE ORIGINAL!
***********AT LAST - THE RAREST UK FOLK GEM**************
MIR 003 A1/B1 ORIGINALLY FROM BRISTOL - AN ACCOMPLISHED FOUR PIECE WITH ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL VOCALS OF CHERIE MUSIALIK -
A COMPARISON HAS TO BE A MIDDLE AREA BETWEEN MANDY MORTON & VASHTI BUNYAN.
RATED BY THE FEW WHO HAVE HEARD,TO BE THE PINNACLE OF UK FOLK ALBUMS, NOT TRADITIONAL HOWEVER AS THIS HAS A CERTAIN HAUNTING EDGE THAT GOES SOME WAY TO BRIDGE THE GAP THROUGH TO A MORE PSYCHEDELIC OTHERWORDLY FEEL.
ACCORDING TO EXPERTS - 500 WERE PRESSED BACK THEN,BUT NEARLY 300 GOT DESTROYED IN A CELLAR FLOOD & OF THE 200+ LEFT,VERY VERY FEW ARE STILL IN
EXISTANCE. THIS IS A VERY RARE OPPORTUNITY TO OBTAIN THE ONE GEM THAT EVEN THE BIGGEST COLLECTORS DONT HAVE.
UNLIKELY TO SEE ANOTHER OFFERED IN THE FAR FUTURE!!
SLEEVE - LAMINATED FLAPBACK - NO WRITING ,TEARS - A LITTLE FADING & LOW KEY CORNER CREASE - A NICE EX
DISC - THIS LOOKS TO HAVE BEEN PLAYED AROUND 4 OR 5 TIMES - HAS A WONDERFUL SHINE - A FEW SPINDLE MARKS ARE PRESENT ON THE MATT ROUGH RED LABEL.
HAVING PLAYED THIS IN ITS ENTIRETY - I CAN CONFIRM IT IS AS GORGEOUS AS THE REVIEW BY 'TIME HAS TOLD ME' (GOOGLE - FOLKAL POINT)ENTHUSIAST!!!
THE 1ST TRACK SIDE 1 HAS A SMALL MARK THAT PROBABLY IS A PRESSING ERROR - THIS CAUSES ABOUT 6 LOWFI CLICKS & THERE IS SOME CRACKLE PRESENT AT TIMES
AS YOU WOULD EXPECT FROM A PRIVATE PRESSING - BUT NO-WAY DOES THIS DETRACT FROM THE PURE ESSENCE OF OUTSTANDING BEAUTY THAT WE HAVE HERE.
VISUALLY I WOULD GRADE THIS AS EX+ - BUT WITH THE FEW MINOR FAULTS OUTLINED ABOVE WILL GO VG+ TO EX
A MINT EXAMPLE HAS NEVER BEEN PROVED TO EXIST!!! DOESN'T GET ANY RARER THAN THIS!!!
HIGH BIDS ARE EXPECTED ON THIS - PERHAPS THE RAREST ORIGINAL ON EBAY AT PRESENT.
CONDITION - EX/VG++
