Calm Before... The Rising Storm - 1992 US Stanton Park 12-track reissue Lp

Scarce 1992 Stanton park label 12-track LP - the immensely rare and potent garage- and folk rock prep-school effort by Phillips Academy, Andover, Ma., band originally released on the Remnant label in 1966 - approximately half the songs are copvers - half 'are originals, and they're surprisingly subtle and ambitious stuff, moody folk-rock that often suggests the subtle influence of the psychedelic revolution that was looming on the musical horizon.'*


Condition: M- (vinyl and labels)/VG++ (Cover):
Perfect supershiny vinyl - mint labels. Cover has upper corner dents... which looks more caused by the tight shrink wrapping than from actual handling - lowering the otherwise perfect cover grading to near perfect - a super copy.
