Description

Banco, vinyl LP on the Manticore Records label, released in 1975, Stereo, Cat N K53507.

From an on-line review:

1975 is 35 years ago. At that time lots of pompous progressive rock was being washed into my young brain, and this sumptuous offering seemed to slip by unnoticed. Big mistake. Not only does this band show more musicological ability than great bands like PFM from the peninsula, they could blitz the best in the world. For one thing singer Francesco di Giacomo can really sing, and the compositions are so beautifully crafted and played - with feeling - that really this band is head and shoulders above its peers. If you like 1970s progressive rock, or merely like good music, you should not let this gem slip by again. I am glad I made up for my youthful ignorance.

COVER. Un-laminated gatefold sleeve format, with white plain paper inner. Very flat with spine and edges in very good condition with some wear, some creases to spine (see scan) no writing, no tears, no seam splits and no sticker residue. Some age grubbiness to cover in places. The opening edges are sharp and true. Paper inner yellowed with age. Overall in excellent condition. EX-    

LABELS. There are no stickers, no tears and no writing. EX+

VINYL. Visually both sides are in exceptional condition with only a couple of minor paper scuffs - approaching near mint condition. Both sides gleam. EX+

Events have conspired to force the sale of a friend's huge and eclectic collection. CDs to start with and some vinyl but most later on. Prog, psych, rock, folk rock, jazz rock, blues, metal, world, dub, indie, jazz, avant garde, and the unclassifiable.
