MIKE D'ABO - UNRELEASED 1972 ACETATE LP RECORDING

MIKE D'ABO - UNRELEASED 1972 ACETATE LP RECORDING. Top to see unreleased 1972 untitled 9 track studio recording from the influential British singer and songwriter Mike D'Abo (Manfred Mann, A Band Of Angels, Wizard's Convention amongst others). The double sided acetate recording features the 9 songs D'abo recorded at Olympic Studios between October and December 1972 and are (side 1): For Jackson, Fuel To Burn (different version to that was later released in 1974), Relax and All At Sea and (side 2): Poor Old Joe, I'm A Ram, May, Soldier, Sailor and The Day That War Broke Out. None of the songs have ever released on vinyl (the majority of the recordings were later released in 2004 on the CD compilation Hidden Gems & Treasured Friends). The acetate (hand written labels) is in clean Ex condition showing only a couple of light and minor surface marks and without any problems to playback. Housed with original generic sleeve handwritten 'Mike D'Abo Studio Recording'. A fascinating piece.
