Blending melodic sophistication, atmospheric keyboards, intricate arrangements, and subtle psychedelic influences, this album captures the adventurous spirit of the British progressive underground at the turn of the decade. Original UK Vertigo Swirl pressings are increasingly sought after by collectors, and this particularly strong copy is distinguished by its pristine, lustrous vinyl and inclusion of the original Vertigo poly-lined inner sleeve. A rare and attractive example of an important early progressive rock release.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cspan\u003eRecord Details\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul data-spread=\"false\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eArtist:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Cressida\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAlbum:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Cressida\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eYear:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e 1970\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCountry:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e United Kingdom\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFormat:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Vinyl LP\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePressing:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Original UK pressing\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eLabel:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Vertigo Swirl\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCatalogue Number:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e VO 7\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSide A Runout \/ Matrix:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e 847904 1Y\/\/1▽420 11 6\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCondition Details\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eVinyl: M- (Near Mint)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe vinyl is shiny and pristine, retaining its full original luster with no visible signs of wear or damage.
