THE POLL " S/T" STEREO POLYDOR 2421025 ,GREECE ........ MY ALLTIME FAVOURITE GREEK BAND ( INCLUDING KOSTAS TOURNAS also MY FAVOURITE GREEK PSYCH COMPOSER ) , BOTH THEIR LP'S ARE A SMALL MIRACLE TO FIND NOWDAYS ,SINCE BOTH HAD AN AMAZING AND UNIQUE FOR GREEK STANDARDS OF THE TIME COVER , A TRUE ARTWORK . THE 1ST CAME OUT ON A BAG AS COVER INCLUDING THE MEGA RARE POSTER AND INSERT , THIS ONE THE FOLLOW UP FROM 1972 IS GATEFOLD AND INCLUDES INSIDE A BOOKLET OF 10 PAGES COLOR COMIC-BOOK WITH THE BAND MEMBERS AS SPACE HEROES WHO ARE KIDNAPED BY MAD PROFESSOR etc... GREAT AND TRUE GEM ACCORDING THE 60s/70s PSYCH-ERA COVERS .AS YOU UNDERSTAND BOTH LP'S IF EVER FOUND ARE MISSING SOMETHING OR ARE NON PLAYABLE COPIES ....1ST IS ALWAYS FOUND WITHOUT THE POSTER OR THE BAG OR THE RARE INSERT WITH PHOTOS AND PICS .WHILE THIS ,THE 2ND ONE COMES ALWAYS WITH THE COMICS MISSING , ALWAYS TRASHED BUT STILL CHANGES HANDS IN GREEK CIRCUIT HANDS FOR OVER 100-150 EUROS LIKE THIS... CLEAN COPIES GO FOR OVER 600 EUROS ....... BUT TO BE HONEST I ONLY HAVE FOUND A MINT COPY , 3 YEARS AGO AND IN GENERALLY 3 COPIES IN LAST 7-8 YEARS . SO STILL IS TUFF TO FIND IN ANY SHAPE NOWDAYS .......... I KNOW ALL FOREIGN COLLECTORS LOVE "FOUR LEVELS OF EXISTENCE " MAINLY FOR ITS FUZZY UNDERGROUND SOUND , BUT THE COMPOSITIONS ARE REALLY WEAK TO MY HUMBLE OPINION .... IT'S NOT ONLY IF IT HAS FUZZ OR MELLOTRON , FOR ME WHAT IS MOST IMPORTANT IS THE MUSIC AND HOW GREAT THE COMPOSITIONS ARE .MUSICALLY THE POLL 2ND LP IT IS PSYCHEDELIC WITH FOLKY TOUCHES , IT ALSO HAS A FANTASTIC FURIOUS WILD EXPLOITO KIND INSTRUMENTAL WITH HAMMOND ,EFFECTS AND WILD FUZZ ATTACK LEADS ,ALL TRACKS ARE WINNERS , NO CRAP HERE, NO BORING ART-ROCK ENDLESS JAMMING, NO COUNTRY ELEMENTS ( that most acid folk Us lp's have ) NO STRAIGHT FM HARD ROCKERS, REAL GROUP FROM WHICH 3 MEMEBERS WENT SOLO AFTER THEIR DISMISS , KOSTAS TOURNAS MADE 4 GREAT SOLO LP'S , WHILE LOGARIDIS FORMED THE LEGENDARY AKRITAS PROG LP , SO REALLY SKILLFUL COMPOSERS -MUSICIANS , RECOMENDED MORE THAN ANYTHING ELSE FROM GREECE ( AND FROM ME ) ...CONDITION IS: COVER GATEFOLD LAMINATED , FRONT IS EX- , THE INNER IS VG++ / BACK HAS SOME TAPE REMAINING MARKS THAT WERE PULLED OFF BUT LEFT A HINT THAT SOMETHING WAS THERE ..... LIKE VG+ BACK , BUT OVERALL GREAT LOOKING SLKEEVE , COMIC-BOOK INTACT IN M- / RECORD LOOKS VG CONDITION WITH SUPERFICIAL MOSTLY LIGHT SCUFFS, BUT I PLAYED IT THROUGH WHOLE OF IT. IT JUST PLAYS LIKE STRONG VG++ , WHICH MEANS SOME MINIMAL SURFACE NOISE ALWAYS UNDERNEATH THE MUSIC AND NOT DISTURBING ATALL , IT DOESNT CREATE NO POPS OR TICKS ATALL ......EVEN IF IT WAS AN EX LOOKING COPY ,IT WOULD STILL PLAY WITH SOME MINIMAL SURFACE ,SO IT'S A NICE OPPORTUNITY COPY FOR SURE , A SMART COPY I WOULD CALL !!!
