Of all moody, minor-key, brooding 1960's albums, this one - as the title suggest - has got to be one of the moodiest, minor-key-est and most introvert of them all, certainly in terms of its overall texture, structure and form (contents, too). It also happens to be one of Tim Buckley's most beloved works and one of the true gems of the psychedelic singers/songwriters era. Done in one bold stroke during the summer of 1969 (the recording sessions also produced material for his "Lorca" album, for a different label - Elektra), Buckley recorded this gorgeous work just as he was contemplating the direction his music and his life were taking at this point. He apparently believed that he was needlessly being pushed into commercialism and he decided to take a 180-degree turn. Before he exploded into full-fledged hermeticism of the "Starsailor" (1970), he managed to record an album that everyone could - and would - love, and relate to. This is the music to drift away by. Music to meditate on the meaning of Cosmos, or - simply - music to watch people go by. A timeless piece of meditative, transcendent, luminous poetry, backed by an incredibly talented and competent, but also unobtrusive and subtle bunch of musicians. The original album, recorded for Frank Zappa's "Bizzare" label, sold a meager few thousand copies and promptly disappeared from the stores, never to be seen again until the equally rare Rhino/Bizzare 1989 CD reissue, which - unfortunately - shared the exact, same fate of its predecessor and has been out of print for almost twenty years. Grab this great, legendary psych album before someone else does!!

·       CONDITION:

·       RECORD

 (IMPORTANT NOTE: unless otherwise noted, ALL records are graded visually, and NOT play-graded!; we  grade records under the strong, diffuse room light or discrete sunlight)

(a)          WE GRADE THE VINYL  AS  (WEAK) NEAR MINT. Some VERY LIGHT AND SUPERFICIAL abrasions – mostly sleeve scuffs -  are (barely) visible, but are probably inaudible,  and do not affect visual integrity or beauty of the vinyl. The original luster is very much intact, and the vinyl shines and sparkles almost like new.

(b)          The record comes in the original stock inner sleeve.

(c)           The record is pressed on a beautiful, thick, inflexible vinyl, which was usually used for the first or very early pressings. Usually, the sound on such thick vinyl pressings is full-bodied, vivid, and even dramatic. Do not expect to obtain such a majestic analog sound from a digital recording!

(d)          Of course, this is a full-bodied ANALOG recording, and not an inferior, digital recording!!!

·       COVER

THE COVER IS NICE --- ABOUT VERY GOOD++ (VG++).

The following flaws or imperfections are noted on the cover:

-        The gatefold cover has partially split seams on 1 out of 4 "legs" of the cover (about 3 inches / 1 inch = 2.5 centimeters). This split seam was delicately taped by the previous owner with a piece of transparent scotch tape

-         Cover has some light ring wear (nothing significant); On the scale from 1 to 10 (1 being the least, and  10 being the most severe), we assess the severity of ring wear as 4

-        Cover has a few tiny wrinkles along the spine

-         Cover has two corners slightly worn / dinged  (nothing significant)

-         Minor shelf wear noted on the seams (nothing significant)

NO OTHER IMPERFECTIONS ON THE COVER:

-        No cut-out (drill) holes.

-        No cut-out corners

-        No saw-marks or indents

-        No dirt/dust rubbing stains (friction marks caused by rubbing against other covers)

-        No yellowing from aging

-        No writing

-        No stamps

-        No peel-off marks

-        No stains
