Label/Sleeve -> Original Rough Pink label with Orangle/Black Ball Logo. Laminated Front sleeve printed by E.J. Day Group, London and Bedford.
Grade (Cover/Vinyl) -> VG+ / VG++
Description -> Thick rigid Vinyl is in superb playing condition. Superb fidelity, plays with barely audible light background sound. Some Superficial hairlines visible under lights. The label on one side had a name written in ink which has been removed possibly thru the use of some cleaner fading the label right between the island logo and track listing. (see picture). Cover has some light/medium rub wear, creases, cracking along the seam.. ALL Seams intact, D2 written on the back of the cover in pen, some coffee stain at the back. (see picture).
Extremely hard album to find and a copy worth enjoying for its fidelity and sound. Cosmetically, great copies can be way more expensive of this rarity.
The record, incorporating touches of blues and his characteristic guitar and vocal, doesn't really prepare you for what's to come from Martyn. The album is a basic, no-frills, guitar and voice effort, although one track, the droning dulcimer and flute-driven "Rolling Home," shows Martyn's urge to stretch, which would become much more evident in the coming years. His vocal delivery is traditionally British, while his playing is steeped in the eclectic folk of British artists such as Davey Graham and Bert Jansch, as well as American blues and folk.
