Some words on this issue: KENSO: “S/T” (PAM – PAM-001) Bloody rare Japanese mid-1970s privately released progressive/ psychedelic masterpiece. Very accomplished progressive rock beast, heavily on flute and mellotron and venturing into the realms of an Eastern inspired Canterbury & Hatfield and the North styled group. Long tracks, all instrumentals, lysergic guitar splashes in between mellotron and organ waves, deep pulsating vibe and rubbing shoulders with the best progressive rock joints of that era. If I had to compare it, Anglagrad comes close but be it with a Japonica feel attached to it and spiked up with dashes of Caravan inspired fairy dust and a faintly Quella Vecchio Locanda vibe. Here and there some ghostlike female vocals simmer through the washes of sound, making the 1st privately Kenso album a true masterpiece in its genre. Hardly ever offered since they were released in an edition of around 300 copies only. This copy is MINT all the way and comes with the always-missing insert. Japanese Original copy of very complex dark prog with a touch of unique Japanese traditions throwing in. This is their rarest debut in awesome black & white Demon cover w/insert, all in all fantastic condition! Cover is Near Mint, disc is very close to Mint !

New to the e-bay game but long experience in selling records so bid with confidence.

Excellent: record has hardly no visible defects and is preserved with care and attention, the condition most collectors take pride in to file away. Near Mint: a dash below mint, just perfect. Mint: like new.
