THE UNDERGROUND FAILURE - S/T - 1972

$

30

Beyond rare Swedish underground acid/psych/folk artifact. English vocals. This was never sold in shops, only locally at gigs by the group themselves, or sold and given away to friends. This is the Black Light label version made by a friend of the band with light yellow cover and picture. Only 130 of these were made. The group depleted these at shows and put together 200 more Lps with a paste on later on. The  paste on cover was the more common version.  Very few of the Black Light label records are around. This cover has some minor ring wear.

Sorry about this folks. There was a question about this being a boot issue. I really can't tell one way or the other. When I traded for this years ago, I was told it was legit.

I found pictures of some other Underground Failure albums; both boot and originals. Most boot copies have the rounded white sleeve, this has a squared sleeve (and is a bit tattered). One original suspposedly had a lyric sheet inside. This one does not have a lyric sheet. The cardboard cover is thin, which is consistant with many european cover sleeves back then, but the cover is not the white prefab stuff that most of the 80's reissues had.

Again, I was told this was an original. But the question has been raised about the authenticity. Because of this I have dropped the price considerably. So if somebody decides to purchase this, they will either get a pretty good deal on a rare reissue copy or get a Hell of steal on an original.

I'll even pay for postage on this one if shipped within the USA.

This is the first listing of about 10,000 psych Lps that I have collected over the past 45 years and will be listing them here over the next few months.

Underground Failure was formed in the late 60's and lasted until summer of 1972. They come across like the weird folk/psych of "Dr Strangely Strange" or "The Incredible Stringband", two bands that were very popular and had major label releases. This is a private press.
