LEAF HOUND Growers Of Mushroom (Once voted the number one
most collectable rock record by Q Magazine, this 1971 UK 9-track LP,
an incredible progressive masterpiece that was criminally ignored
during its lifetime, has since gone on to attain legendary status & quite
rightly so. The album was recorded in one eleven hour session at Spot
Studios in Mayfair, London in late 1970 with Peter Fench on Vocals,
Mick Halls on Guitar, Derek Brooks on Guitar, with his brother Stuart
on Bass & Keith George-Young on drums. The band had previously
been active, with various lineups, as Black Cat Bones. A victim of
circumstances and a sequence of disputes with their management, led
to the band touring Germany with the album still unreleased. Because
of their success on this tour, German label Telefunken released both
the album and a single. On returning to the UK, the album still
remained unissued & the band finally broke up before it was released,
losing the opportunity to promote it, and it disappeared without trace.
Many years later, the album was re-discovered, rightly proclaimed a
classic & people set out to to try to obtain copies, without success.
Seriously bootlegged, as original copies were almost impossible to
obtain, it is suspected that like the Dr Z 'Three Parts To My Soul' LP,
the actual copies sold were measured in handfuls.
This is one of those original
copies!
Unlike the majority of the few surviving
copies, this copy is in spectacular condition with minimal wear to the
sleeve & immaculate vinyl. How it survived in this state is unknown,
but it did & here it is. We are overjoyed to be able to offer it to you
all & can guarantee that there isn't a better original copy on the
planet.
Yes, it's expensive, but good things often are. Miss this
one & there won't be another along like it.
Forever is a
long time to regret not doing something...
Not buying this copy,
if you ever went looking for it, you WILL
regret.
'Growers Of Mushroom', just one
copy, in fantastic condition, ONLY available here!
