Description
A great copy of UK'S SELF TITLED DEBUT LP pressed in 1978. CAT # PD1 6146. They were a supergroup from the start. With Bill Bruford on drums having played with King Crimson and Yes on their most brilliant 70s works. John Wetton on Bass and Vocals also coming from mid 70's King Crimson power trio era of RED, LARK TOUNGES IN ASPIC, and STARLESS AND BIBLE BLACK, as well as ASIA. ALLAN HOLDSWORTH, the fluid virtuoso guitarist who played on those Pierre Morlean and Gong LPs, and Eddie Jobson who came out of Zappa and Roxy Music and plays electric violin and keys. This first UK LP hit like lightning when it was released. It's one of my favorite progressive LPs, and I dropped everything at the time to go see the 2 area shows at the Palladium in NYC and in Connecticut. This first band would only record this LP. The band would record Danger Money with Terry Bozzio on drums, but it wasn't the same, and that band was short lived. This is a super album, and in great condition.
The cover is VG+ with some ring wear and a bit of handling. The vinyl is in beautiful shape, and plays NM, it has a very slight warp to it that does not affect play, but should be mentioned. The original inner is in VG+ condition with overall handling and ring wear.
