TONTON MACOUTE Tonton Macoute: Rare and in demand original 1971 UK Neon label 7-track LP of British jazz-rock with blues and psych touches, revered by the prog intelligentsia, housed in a superb Keef-designed matt gatefold picture sleeve printed and made by the EJ Day Group. The sleeve displays some scuffing to its edges, yet the spine is clearly legible and the inside print immaculate with just a small pen mark next to one of the tracks. The vinyl is housed in its die-cut poly-linedinner and remains excellent with only a few light cosmetic surface scuffs but shows only light evidence of play. Recommended, more info hereFAIRFIELD PARLOUR From Home To Home: Rare 1970 UK 12-track stereo vinyl LP on the Vertigo ‘swirl’ label, with the original swirl inner and textured gatefold picture sleeve designed and photographed by Marcus Keef. The sleeve displays some wear mostly to the edges & corners, the labels have only a few light spindle marks whilst the vinyl remains very clean with only very light evidence of play. A highly respectable example of this very sought after, over forty five year old pressing and the first we have seen in seven years, more info here DEEP PURPLE Fireball: Beautiful archive quality 1971 first UK issue 7-track stereo vinyl LP, with A2/ B3 matrices, ‘Gramophone Co.’ label credit & EMI logo, housed in a wonderful fully textured gatefold picture sleeve complete with company inner&rare lyric insert. Obtained from the private archives of a one-previous owner collection, stored away from direct sunlight with just a little light corner & edge wear.
