Tracklisting & More Information

Condition:

Due to the matte finish, the sleeve shows a degree of scuffing with a few light paper marks but remains more than respectable with bright colours & just light general shelfwear. The swirl inner is the correct type for the period, poly lined & dated 1070.

The labels are the 'large' swirl variety with the 'VERTIGO' print at the bottom of the Side B label. There are a few spindle marks visible around the centre hole but again nothing extreme. The labels are free from stickers, tears or writing.

The vinyl has reacted with the inner and has left a few cosmetic surface marks, whilst not mint, manages to retain its integrity & is free of any major defect.

This is a copy certainly sitting at the upper edge of 'VG' & very nearly makes it into the 'EX' category. A wonderful chance to pick up a copy of this Vertigo rarity at an advantageous price.

Tracklisting:
1. Poet and Peasant - 7:11
2. Passacaglia - 7:04
3. Memory - 3:56
4. Raymond's Road - 11:49
5. Light Cavalry - 11:55
