USA - (lime green) CAPITOL RECORDS - SW-676 WAS FACTORY SEALED ... that's right, FACTORY SEALED .... OPENED ONLY TO
CHECK THE LABEL TO DETERMINE PRESSING...it's a FIRST PRINT on the RARE
LIME GREEN CAPITOL LABEL that was only produced by Capitol for a number
of months...
RARE!!! ORIGINAL 1970 first pressing a perfect copy! Released in the same year as their first album in 1970, If # '2' saw the English prog/fusion/rock band deliver a killer follow-up album that was just as good, if just a little more instantly approachable than their very first LP ... One
of the things that makes this album such a winner is that, in addition
to the obviously top-notch musical displays and improvisational skills
of the musicians, the band have crafted those elements to a selection of
accessible and melodic tunes, without really being any more overly
commercial. Soul, psych, funk, jazz and heavy R&B styles are all
blended seamlessly with a hard rocking sound, with thrilling
instrumental runs carefully executed between strong vocal passages. Oh,
and it also happens to groove the whole time!!
CONDITION: is rated: opened for label inspection, was STILL FACTORY SEALED ... flat, square and 4 sharp corners ... a Fantastic UN-PLAYED 1970 FIRST PRINT ...
