Rarity Scale – Mega Rare
Here we have one of the rarest UK psychedelic albums from the late 60’s. To find decent copies of this album getting more difficult every day.
The disc of this copy is in EX condition. Visual the disc looks lovely with only a few very tiny hairlines which are inaudible. Visual the disc looks great. The disc produces a bit of crackle at the very beginning and run-out of both sides and between tracks. The music plays loud and clear. Fantastic disc!
The laminated fragile single sleeve is in EX- condition. It is fully intact. No tears, no major creases and stains. Just some age and storage wear.
The laminate is fully intact. There is only some lamination lift near the spine but this is quite small. The spine is lovely and fully readable. The opening is in OK condition. Minimal wear.
The front of the sleeve shows a few banana creases which is very common.
The back of the sleeve is lovely with only some minor age wear.
Please take a very good look at the photos to get a good impression!

About this record.
Most collectors with a focus on the late 60’s psych scene, know this album very well. Among with Kaleidoscope and Pussy, this album is one of the rarest UK pop/psych classics from the late 60’s.
If you want to hear typical English psych from the late 60’s, this album is something for you! Great pop/psych songs which are made by the one album band “The Open Mind”. The band was originally called “The Apaches” and “The Drag Set” but eventually called “The Open Mind”. The band has four members. Mike Brancaccio, and Terry Martin are on vocals and guitar, Timothy du Feu plays bass and Phil Fox is on drums.
Besides this album the band released some singles and EP’s around the same time. There most famous and best song is “Magic Potion”. It was released as a 7” inch record in 1969 but unfortunately never came on the album.
This is considered as an important piece of the UK psych era together with albums like “The Fox” and both “Kaleidoscope” albums.
After the release of this album the band disappeared from the stage.
