This is Hardest To Find Album of Mike Hanopol, The legendary leader of Juan De La Cruz Band. I have encountered his other 3 LPs , but this one is the most elusive. I was told by a record bar owner that there were a very limited copies made. This is his 4th album, copyright in 1980. Manufactured in the Philippines and produced by BLACKGOLD Records. Contain the songs:

Side A:

• Umiikut-ikot
• Gasolina Rock
• Hating Gabi
• Nag –Iisa
• Hangang Libing

Side B:

• Ichon
• Mag-ingat Ka
• Sa Bayan Ni Juan
• Dahil Sa Iyong Pag-Ibig
• Paunawa.

I am not an expert on grading records but will give you a general description. This is a moderately played record. Vinyl has the usual scratches, but still playable. Jacket has some wear due to age. Has 2-punch hole marks done by the record bar to indicate that this album was marked-down for sale. Please take a look at the photo for better description.

Still one of the HARDEST to find Pinoy Rock Psych / Progressive Album.   Complete your MIKE HANOPOL. I have posted my entire Juan Dela Cruz, Mike Hanopol, and the Rock / Psych / Progressive LPs on eBay

About MIKE HANOPOL

When it comes to Pinoy Rock Music, only one male performer reigns supreme up to this day, Mike Hanopol - noted of his black beret and powerful raspy voice.

Long before today’s young showbands, like the Eraserheads, Rockstar, Introvoys, True Faith and Alamid, came to fore, there was already the Juan De La Cruz Band where Mike Hanopol started out in 1974. The group recorded such hits as "Balong Malalim", "Karagatan", and "Divisoria".

In 1976, Mike Hanopol started on a solo career. His hit songs included, Buhay Musikero, with Willy Cruz and Danny Javier(of Apo) as his record producers.

In 1977, Mike Hanopol’s name soared higher as he released "Laki Sa Layaw", which gives rise to the term "JEPROX". Mike earned three albums for Blackgold and a reunion LP with the Juan de la Cruz Band
