Brian Auger's contribution to music has been considerable, someone who has demonstrated a rare devotion and dedication and who has always been prepared to make sacrifices for what he believed was right. Today, and perhaps belatedly, he is finally acknowledged as one of the most considerable influences in the development of new musical forms, based upon the fusion of two elements, pop and jazz.

Track Listing:
Side 1: A Day in the Life / George Bruno Money / Far Horizon / John Brown's Body
Side 2: Red Beans and Rice / Bumpin' on Sunset / If You Live / Definitely What!

LABELS: The labels are CLEAN, BRIGHT and UNMARKED with NO evident spindle traces. THIS COPY HAS CLEARLY HARDLY EVER BEEN PLAYED
VINYL Visual: The surfaces are CLEAN and BRIGHT with a DEEP GLOSSY SHEEN. There are just one or two (mega) light hairlines which have NO audio consequence - the LP plays FLAWLESSLY throughout
VINYL Audio: OUTSTANDING - CRYSTAL CLEAR, BEAUTIFUL, DEEP, RICH VIBRANT SOUND - FANTASTIC CUT. There are NO scratches, NO sticks, NO jumps, NO clicks/pops and NO surface noise AT ALL. The sound quality is simply SENSATIONAL with NO groove-wear and NO distortion. A REALLY BEAUTIFUL COPY. Must be graded MINT(-) for audio - silly grade really as the playback is FLAWLESS and MINT but as the copy is not new and sealed MINT(-) is my top grading. NOT over-graded in ANY way as I use STRICT RECORD COLLECTOR grading standards (please refer to my feedback and 'about me' page)
SLEEVE: The cover is also in MINT(-) condition - practically AS-NEW with NO edge or spine wear and only a couple of very light and extremely minor laminate creases. BEAUTIFUL SLEEVE

PLEASE HAVE A LOOK AT MY PICTURES - I USUALLY TAKE QUITE A FEW SO YOU CAN GET A CLEAR INDICATION OF EVERY DETAIL OF THE RECORD AND SLEEVE
I HAVE UPLOADED AS MANY PICTURES AS I CAN BUT I WOULD BE MORE THAN HAPPY TO SUPPLY ANY ADDITIONAL PHOTOS ON REQUEST
STUNNING COPY OF AN EXTREMELY RARE UK FIRST STEREO PRESSING A FINER COPY I THINK WOULD BE VERY HARD TO LOCATE INDEED - HIGHLY RECOMMENDED
AS WITH ALL MY RECORDS THIS HAS A LOW START PRICE AND NO RESERVE
