FAIRPORT CONVENTION Fairport Convention (Extremely rare
1968 UK first issue 12-track stereo vinyl LP, featuring Ian
MacDonald, Judy Dyble, Richard Thompson, Simon Nichol,
'Tyger' Hutchings & Martin Lamble, produced by Joe & Tod
Lloyd for Witchseason Productions. Recorded well in advance
of their future popularity, this debut record sold quite poorly
& has now become very difficult to find. Apart from the
optimistic single 'If [Stomp]' that was released, most of the
rest of this album has long since disappeared into history.
Complete with the fully laminated picture sleeve, see 'more
info' for condition details...).

| Tracklisting / Additional Info: |
Condition
The sleeve is fully laminated with a pinched spine; there are a couple of light scratches to the laminate in the front, but nothing obtrusive, whilst the edges are still sharp & creasing is minimal. The colours are rich & fantastic looking & there is no writing, some light ring wear is inevitable.
The vinyl has been professionally cleaned and has come up looking really nice, grading Excellent. There is a little minor spindle wear by the centre hole to indicate play & nice playback.
Although this is not a mint copy, this is still a great example of this cult debut that, although overlooked at the time, is now seen as the groundbreaking album that it actually was. Get this really nice copy while you can at an advantageous price, or you could be waiting a very long time for another one to surface...
