FIVE DAY RAIN - FIVE DAY RAIN LP (ORIGINAL UK WHITE LABEL TEST PRESSING). Amazing to uncover original (UK) white label test pressing of the only eponymous 1970 LP from Five Day Rain. This copy is generously consigned from the son of original bass player Clive Shepherd. The record (white labels with hand written artist information) is in solid VG condition showing some light surface marks/scuffs though absolutely no heavier feelable scratches. Machine stamped in the matrix 'A' and 'B'. The band never saw an official release at the time and which took some 20 years to resurface. The band had been formed in early 1970 when Sussex-based power trio Iron Prophet was augmented by Graham Maitland of The Scots Of St. James and Les Fleur De Lys. By the beginning of 1971 the band had broken up, with some members moving to Studd Pump. One of only a handful of copies that are known to exist.
