This is a plain white stock cover that has THE SAILOR BAND "SAILOR" stamped on front. Formerly blank white back has a sailboat picture hand drawn and signed by previous owner. It says "Patric", but she was a Kathy Patric -and a gem of a hippie, Greenpeace Big Sur mama. She also sailed her own boat across the Pacific! (with this LP). Cover has withstood 2 water stains (1 front, top and 1 back, side.) No mold, odor or deterioration of cover. just discoloration. Seams/spine are solid all around with a couple of tiny spots of wear at top seam. No splits.

Enormously obscure and tough to find original album!
Released in 1974 on their own private label, this has to be one of the best private prog LPs' from the USA, with some fantastic fuzz guitar and keyboard work. From Minnesota and surprisingly sophisticated for such a private release. Most privately released progressive albums from 1974 have a strong, churning hard rock element, and there’s little of that here with this jazz and classically inspired album. Plenty of jazz fusion guitar and piano as well as amp'd up electric guitar and Hammond organ. Almost all instrumental except the final track. A super find.

Low starting bid, don't miss out on this one!
