A fine specimen indeed. with Gary's handwritten explanation ... 'album of Chrysalis artists'
Robin Trower very kindly signed the sleeve, and the record label, to enrich this item from GB's legacy: Twice Removed from Yesterday
The Trower album, other side: CHR 1039
Self-explanatory ... the 'Prime Cuts' A-side
Self-explanatory ... the 'Prime Cuts' B-side. Track 4 gives you the bonus of Dave Ball on guitar as well!
Gary Brooker signs the cover of the eight-page inner booklet

The track listing, Sellotaped on!
If you can't read it, please see all the details spelt out on the white labels
below
Absolutely cracking stuff on this first side ... but it's damaged, and a couple of tracks probably won't play properly
Side 2, the Procol content. Track 2's 'Fisher' credit doesn't quite ring true. Vinyl looks to be in good order
One can never have too many singles by The Move. Off-centre label!
The marks are just reflections on the vinyl, which looks to be in good order
Interesting label-mates for the Procols: vinyl looks to be in good order
Back to the main list of auction vinyl to see the full range of goodies on offer. The auction proceeds will be shared between cancer charities chosen by Franky Brooker, and the Procol website, as was Gary's wish.'
