I think this might be my favourite album cover in the world.

I've been fascinated by Homer, Jay, John and Hardy for many years, and it was inevitable that one day I would own this- an original 1974 pressing. I ended up with an absolutely minty fresh SEALED copy, just by chance. I can never open it, although I've wanted to, because its a piece of art. I've got one of those 1977 copies that I like to listen to.

NM. Stereo. No publishing Credits. 1st day press. Actually rarer than a stereo second state butcher cover!

Sacred UK psych object. Mono, so it's pretty cool and stuff.

Yup, this one too. This copy has a "watermark" on the first half of B1. I knew you'd be curious.

Holy mother of god UK original, 1969.

You gotta have it.

You have also gotta have this.

And, this.

(UK mono) This is the bomb, the jam, the sickest shit since Charlie Patton stopped making 78s. I've been fairly obsessed with this sensational platter since discovering back in the day, and have tirelessly preached the cause of this underdog, to mix a metaphor. Michael Giles' genius is fully on display. Hey, I love "Lark's Tongues in Apsic" too, so what do you think of that!?

(German UA w/ poster) This is more prized than all my other Krautrock albums because it has the poster. This raises the awesomeness (and value) about 10 times.

One of those "the only album that matters" albums.

Another Can LP? OK, it's not "holy mackerel" like if I had the Music Factory version, but this is second best: a laminated 1st press on the burgundy label. I'm also in the minority in that I prefer the early Malcolm period.

I'm delighted that this exists. A promo only mono album, 5 years after mono albums became unavailable to consumers in the US. The fact that it is such a hi-fi recording makes it more wonderful. And, actually, the sound on this thing is terrific.

A heavenly object. Mine came with a label catalogue which is a treasure in itself (see pics right here).

This UK copy not only has the coolest cover of any edition of this LP, it's also the most sought after version- for good reason!

In the top 10 best UK psych LPs.

Nice original UK pressing. This is prized by me not only because it's brain-meltingly heavy, but also because it was given to me by a dear and dearly missed friend.

And, their second and final album.

That's both Trees UK originals in the bag. Huzzah!

Great British electric folk with more acid bite than Fairport or Steeleye. Amazing!

Magical item from the Nigerian master guitarist. The colour scheme/design only add to the alchemy. His albums from the 70s are just about the best ever from the continent, and still affordable...for now!

Honestly, I've got no idea if this is from '68 or if they kept pressing it into the 70s. Either way, it's mindblowing shit and I'm glad I own it. Hot take: the second album is even better!

The ultimate in Deep Woods Nightmare folk, plus insert.

One of the best ever private pressings.
