DAVY GRAHAM & ALEXIS KORNER 3/4 A.D. (2013 UK limited
edition 3-track 7" vinyl EP, originally issued in 1962, picture
sleeve reproducing the first issue sleeve artwork. The first
recordings by the legendary Davy Graham, recorded by Bill
Leaderat his home in London in April 1961 and released one
year later. Starting off with the signature tune 'Angi' [or
'Anji'], this had as much of an effect on English acoustic music
as Jimi Hendrix had for the electric. This was the tune that set
the benchmark for all others to strive to reach before they
could classify themselves a 'competent' player. The second
side contains a duet with Alexis Korner from which the title of
the EP comes, being the time signature & the initial letters of
both their Christian names. This is a welcome re-issue of a
very hard to find classic - Still in the original opened shrink
