* Rarely seen on eBay *

Axe Records  AXM-1001, original issue/pressing Canada Stereo

(Greg Hambleton's very collectable "Axe"  label)

Very difficult-to-find third (and last) LP from this Toronto-based band, who evolved from the 60's R&B-garage band "The Toronto Shotgun".

Released a few years after their 2 better-known (but still obscure) folk-psych efforts ("Weighin' Heavy" and ""A Better Road"),  "Armoured Car" seemingly vanished from sight upon it's release.....in fact, the isn't even listed on most band bios and discographies.

With original members, John Dudgeon (future Mojo Grande member) on guitars and lead vocals, Bob Forrester (keyboards),  Rob Cockell (bass),  Tony Dunning (guitar), and Dennis Watson (drums).

** Never released on CD ** 

Labels...NM          Vinyl (paper sleeve scuffs)...NM-           Cover...NM-

Only very minor shelf wear with perhaps a minor flaw….an overall excellent collectible cover (a cover that was very well stored)
