HERON Heron (Debut 1970 UK 13-track LP on the Dawn label, a stunning piece of British pastoral Folk / Psych which saw the band set up mics in a field in Manor Farm, Appleford, Berkshire a few miles from Traffic's own rural retreat in Aston Tirrold, for a truly authentic sound, fully textured gatefold picture sleeve with illustrated credits insert. The sleeve is a gorgeous off white with just a spot of ever so light age wear in places, barely noticeable [name written on inside lip]. The heavyweight vinyl is a clean VG+/EX-; there is a fair amount of spindle marks by the centre holes to suggest play, with some mild paper scuffs & faint hairlines in addition, which have very little to no effect on sound during playback. A seldom heard masterpiece of its kind & recommended DNLS3010)
