227 copies limited with glossy cover and insert. The sound of the pre-Afghan/Greatcoat UK underground exudes from every inch of The Ultra Smooth Swagger Band who merge Neil Young-esque west-coast jams, melodic progressive Help Yourself/Man-style twin-guitar smokers and propulsive Pink Fairies style rockers on this LP, originally recorded in 1972. Eight tracks carefully recovered from the original tape, opening with the sucker-punch of 'Turn Me On Dead Man,' ending with the 11-minute guitar-fest 'It Grows On You.' Recommended to those who wear embroidered denim shirts and love the smell of a Nepalese Temple Ball. Limited to 227 copies.
