"A WIZARD A TRUE STAR" 1973 DIE-CUT US STEREO GATEFOLD LP, BEARSVILLE BR-2133, STILL SEALED!

The album, and especially the first side of the vinyl recording, is an extended medley after the fashion of The Beatles' late recordings - brief songs segue into one another, and the lyrics are frequently humorous or hallucinatory. The first side features a cover version of "Never Never Land" from the Broadway version of Peter Pan. The second side features a much-applauded medley of covers of doo-wop and bubblegum soul hits. Its length (55:56) pushed the limits of just how much music could fit on an LP, as a result, the sound quality of this LP is usually less-than-stellar.  The first issue on vinyl (JW - 1 is written in the trail-off), the only pressing made from the original master, has the best fidelity, finding one in near mint condition is not easy. Arthur Wood made the curious cover painting that is featured on the original recording.

First issues of the vinyl LP included a "band aid" poem written by Patti Smith, a short bio about the album as well as a postcard encouraging purchasers to send their name to be included on a poster in Todd's next album. Re-issues of the vinyl LP did not include any of these extras and the cover was a standard square cover instead of die-cut.

This classic, iconic LP also contained one of Todd's most memorable originals, "Just One Victory". 

WE HAVE NO WAY TO CHECK THE MATRIX NUMBERS SINCE THIS IS SEALED, BUT THIS IS DIE-CUT WITH NO BAR CODE AND NO C/O MARKINGS, AND ALL AVAILABLE INFORMATION SUGGEST THAT THE DIE-CUT COVERS ARE ONLY ON THE ORIGINAL ISSUE, THEREFORE WE WOULD EXPECT TO FIND THE POSTCARD & POEM INSIDE. WE DO NOT GUARANTEE THIS SINCE WE CAN'T VISUALLY VERIFY IT !
