This is a classic Prog album in stunning condition. It will be a long long time before this album turns up again in this condition. With this most unsettling of debut albums, Catapilla staked their claim as perhaps the most dramatic and certainly most visionary of all the British progressive bands saddled with the epithet "jazz-rock". "Catapilla" features intricate arrangements, the gyrations of vocalist extraordinaire Anna Meek and some mighty heavy riffing, courtesy of the Catapilla horn section.

 I am a private collector who has been buying and selling on ebay for more than 16 years without problem so bid with confidence. I always try to describe items accurately but it is not always easy, condition is sometimes a matter of opinion, especially with vinyl records so please feel free to ask questions.


I am also always willing to combine postage for won items if possible and pass on a postage discount – please ask , and look at my other items for sale. I do not try and make a profit from postage but to simply cover my costs. I always use cardboard mailers designed for posting records
