Rarity Scale – Mega Rare
One of the very best acts on the legendary Vertigo Swirl album! This is a 1st UK Vertigo pressing!! This is the most wanted issue of this album!
The record of this copy is in NM to Mint- condition. Both sides play lovely without any issues. There is some minimal crackle at the very beginning of both sides (pressing). Also the labels are amazing without spindle traces. This copy almost looks like new!! Simply amazing.
The sleeve is in EX+ to NM. It has minimal wear near the edges. The spine is absolutely perfect! The opening is also amazing! It is really sharp. also the back of the unlaminated gatefold sleeve is lovely with some minimal wear here and there. The inside of the gatefold has some minimal issues caused by the production of the sleeve. During production of UK Vertigo sleeve the gatefold were closed almost immediately after production. Wet ink was able to stick and causes some damages. You see this often with UK Vertigo releases. We think this is nothing serious, especially this is caused during the production and not by previous owners.
This copy comes with the original UK Vertigo Swirl inner.

A large selection of rare vinyl records from the golden era.
Cressida is in our opinion one of the best bands on the Vertigo label. The UK prog band started in 1969 and released their outstanding debut album also on Vertigo (VO7). Asylum was their second and final album during the Golden Era. It was released in famous Vertigo 6360 series on number 25 (6360 025).
The music is very progressive with outstanding arranged tracks and great musicianship. The band had their typical own sound with shorter progressive songs. That was unique during the period.
The beautiful artistic cover was done by the master “Marcus Keef” who did a lot of covers for the Vertigo label, but also others like RCA Neon and Fontana.
This album is one of our favourite albums from the Golden Era.
