Description
Way before RUMORS, Fleetwood Mac was a blues rock band fronted by Peter Green (vocals, guitar, harmonica, and with Jeremy Spencer on slide guitar, vocals, and piano as well as John McVie and Mick Fleetwood on Bass and Drums respectively, and the pair would stay with The Mac through thick and thin. This was not the most commercially popular of the Mac incarnations, but they were amazing. It wasn't long after Muddy Waters played Newport and caused an international awareness of American Blues, that almost every aspiring rock star kid in the UK picked up LPs by American Blues greats, notably Muddy and Howlin Wolf. That did set the stage for every Britt invasion band to be grounded in the blues, and Peter Green was one that tried to stay very true to the blues while electrifying it. They were great, and because the band was not a big commercial success, these original LPs are few and far between.
This is the FIRST UK MONO PRESSING.
The COVER is VG with handling , a few bends, soft corners, and with bottom right corner 1/4" damage. The top seam is good, but the bottom seam is not split, however the glue has come undone and the bottom back cover is separated from the inside. This could be fixed easily with glue, but I never do anything like that. Despite the issues, the cover does display nicely. The spine has a fair amount of lamination removed , but the cat# is still visible towards the bottom. The VINYL is VG+. UK Mono's of this LP are rare.
