MkII + head.

Gracious - original UK pressing

2013-07-07 by tronbros

I am selling a very clean copy of the first Gracious album in a well preserved sleeve. I am offering it to this list first. I know what it is worth but if you are interested and want to bid privately to tronbros@aol.com, I will take a look at the end of Thursday this week and if there is a bid that satisfies.....it's yours! Of course you may all hate the album, just like I do.

My best,

Martin

Thanks for posting. I thoroughly enjoyed it, reminded me a bit of Spike Jones.

You're right Bruce, I can't think of any track, no matter how awful that doesn't sound a little better with a mellotron. The group doing the backing appear to be a german progressive rock band. Thinking of the british progressive rock bands I couldn't see King Crimson, Yes or even Barclay James Harvest doing this, maybe the Moody Blues?

I love that album! I have multiple copies including the US version with different cover & band pics.
