Description
In the world of British underground rock, the Greasy Truckers Party ... ... looms about as large as the Monterey International Pop Festival does in American rock lore; it wasn't the biggest gig ever played by the bands involved, but for reasons of exposure, and resulting word-of-mouth, and the excerpted live album that followed, it came to define what they were capable of.
—?Bruce Eder, AllmusicGreasy Truckers Party is a 1972 live album by various artists recorded at a February 1972 Greasy Truckers concert at the Roundhouse London. The concert featured three bands, Man - Brinsley Schwarz and Hawkwind, and musician Magic Michael. Originally a double vinyl album, in a limited edition of 20,000 and sold at just £1.50, it rapidly sold out, and became a collector's item.
THIS IS THE LIMITED 1ST PRESS DOUBLE LP VINYL - easily grades at EX+ on ALL sides though note a scratch type mark on side 3 that does not affect play - lovely full gloss all sides and ORIGINAL 2U stampers for all matrix numbers. LABELS - are pristine - easily EX+ 1 PHOTO SHOWN BUT ALL SIDES EQUAL TO THAT PHOTO - ALL ARE SO CLEAN. SLEEVE- easily EX - being cautious as obviously has been handled. INNERS - standard original white inners it came with - EX+ EXTRA - UNIQUE ORIGINAL A4 SHEET THAT EXPLAINS THE PROJECT OF THE GREASY TRUCKERS - ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC TO GET THIS INCLUDED !!!!
THE GIG ITSELF HAS A BRILLIANT HISTORY OF POWER CUTS, COMMUNITY EFFORT AROUND THE MUSIC - REAL OLD SCHOOL PROG / HIPPY TYPE IDEAS - A REAL MOMENT IN TIME.
Will be sent signed for (buyer/seller protection) and in a proper mailer - thanks.
