THE KINGFISHERS It’s Real MEGA RARE PRIVATE PRESSING on CRA 1970 STEREO
Here we go with one of the Rarest Albums in the UK-
THE KINGFISHERS - It’s real on Christian Recording Associates Label CRA/MS 115/1
Fragile folk Christian with female vocals
we are delighted to offer one of the rarest pressings in the uk Quite possibly the first to be offered on E bay
Another Kingfishers album has previously appeared on Popsike title Hosanna Songs - Ark of the glory which was undated and mono which may point to it being an earlier album than this one which is stereo
I was only able to date this using the Cross- Rythmns christian music data base as there is no date on the label insert or sleeve - But that was about the only information I could find about this anywhere on the web.
There is now a clip on Youtube if you would like to hear a flavour of this album
The Kingfishers Stars were shining
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GhtVf_2RuOA
However this is a bit of a gem - 11 tracks of original fragile acoustic folk with lovely hushed harmonising female vocals throughout and beautiful chamber folk arrangements
The Kingfishers were Sally Breeze - Violin percussion and recorder
Valerie Breeze -Guitar recorder and chime bars
Jennifer Muschamp
Brenda Piper Guitar +Piano
Gregory Smith Double bass
Kenneth Fitchew - Flute
All words and music composed by Brenda Piper
arranged by Sally Breeze
Comes with original lyric insert - printed on both sides
Condition Front cover is close to Excellent with just a few signs of wear
there is a small mark towards the top edge which I hope you can see in the photo which could be a printing flaw
or perhaps something was spilt on the sleeve sometime in the last 40 years !
The unusual sleeve design is taken from a Scandinavian rock carving of the Bronze age
Rear cover is Excellent with bright yellow colour showing just very light colour fading on the extreme spine edge
labels are EXCELLENT
Vinyl is very close to Excellent with just a few very light surface marks
Insert is excellent with just a light crease to one corner
A very rare album with a great deal of spiritual honesty and charm - I suspect less than 100 pressed .
Tracks are
Side One
A busy Thoroughfare
God is there
Thank you
There’s a place
Wherever I look- reading from the Living Bible
Side Two
Long long ago
Stars were shining
Hear my prayer
Dreams
Lord have you searched me
Psalm 139
People turn
