ATTENTION 1970s PROGRESSIVE ROCK AND RARE 1970s ALBUM COLLECTORS AS WELL AS FANS OF DEEP PURPLE AND JUDAS PRIEST!  HERE IS AN ORIGINAL 1ST STEREO EDITION OF A CLASSIC AND HARD TO FIND ALBUM BY TRAPEZE: "YOU ARE THE MUSIC..WE'RE JUST THE BAND".

THE BAND INCLUDES GLENN HUGHES WHO WAS LATER IN DEEP PURPLE AND DAVE HOLLAND WHO WAS LATER IN JUDAS PRIEST.

THIS ALBUM HAD VERY LITTLE ATTENTION,EXPOSURE OR SALES 42 YEARS AGO-PROBABLY DELETED WITHIN A FEW MONTHS. UNLIKE MOST OF THE CONCEPT ALBUMS OF THE ERA,THIS ONE HAS SOME GREAT GUITARWORK.

IT'S THE FIRST COPY I HAVE FOUND IN YEARS! ISSUED ON THE DECCA PRESSED THRESHOLD LABEL WITH MOST OF THE ACTS UNDER THE SUPERVISION OF THE MOODY BLUES WHO WERE THE MAIN ACT ON THE LABEL,THIS HARD TO FIND ALBUM HAS NOT HAD MANY PLAYS IN 42 YEARS!

THIS ONE HAS GLEAMING SURFACES WITH ONLY A FEW FAINT SURFACE MARKS VISIBLE IN VERY STRONG LIGHT BUT VERY LITTLE SURFACE NOISE.A FEW ISOLATED "POPS" BUT NO CLICKS,STICKS,SWISHES OR JUMPS! THICK VINYL! VERY STRICTLY GRADED AS  EXCELLENT CONDITION. THE BLIND FOLD TEST WOULD EASILY MERIT EXCELLENT++++++ FOR MOST OF THE DISCS SOUND! 

THRESHOLD THS 8 STEREO MIXES-GREAT USE OF THE STEREO IMAGE! THERE WERE NO MONOS! 

IT HAS THE EARLIEST POSSIBLE P-1/P-1 MATRIXES AS WELL AS BEING HOUSED IN THE ORIGINAL BLUE STEREO INNER SLEEVE WHICH HAS THE DATE CODE 5-72(MAY 1972)DENOTING ONE OF THE FIRST EVER PRINTED FOR THIS LP! 

  THE LABELS ARE VERY CLEAN WITH NO WRITING OR STAINING! HARDLY ANY SPINDLE WEAR. PLEASE SEE ALL OF MY PHOTOS TO SEE BOTH LABELS AND BOTH SIDES OF THE COVER.

THE COVER HAS A TINY NAME IN PEN AT THE TOP OF THE FRONT OF THE COVER+SOME TINY EDGE CREASES,EDGE WEAR AND A LITTLE RING WEAR BUT NO RIPS OR REPAIRS. PLEASE CHECKOUT MY FEEDBACK FOR STRICT GRADING REPORTS ON MANY RARE 1970s ROCK ALBUMS!  UNLIKE OTHER SELLERS, I PLAY ALL MY EBAY ITEMS THROUGH TWICE TO ENSURE REALISTIC GRADINGS.
