Very interesting lineup! I have a balance on a gift card and will probably purchase this.

Thanks - and Amazon! It's an (egads!) Amazon gift card so I'll have to buy it from there!

Now the sound quality isn't all that great because this vinyl is pretty much a bootleg,
so keep that in mind before buying it. I can send you a sample if you want to hear it before buying it.

I played that track to death when I first got Hurdy Gurdy Man.

A modern anthem.

Already ordered I’m afraid – but thanks for the offer.

It's one of those tracks I don't get tired of. I remember reading in Donovan's autobiography that he started incorporating incorporating jazzy elements into his work because he and his circle of friends were deeply into Miles Davis' Seven Steps To Heaven at the time.
