THE NICE/IN MEMORIAM 2C 054-91.951 (-7?) FRANCE

An alternative Nice compilation with exclusive cover and tracking. I'm having a really hard time finding early genuine collections with the group, not belonging to packrat series or low budget compilation lines. So far the best I've come across is the German "The Best Of The Nice" I posted a while ago - and this. Both have eight tracks and five in common - "America", "The Diamond Hard Blue Apples Of The Moon", "Intermezzo From The Karelia Suite", "Thoughts Of Emerlist Davjack" and "Brandenburger". Exclusive to this is the live version of "Rondo '69", "Azrael Revisited" and "Hang On To A Dream". As far as I can hear all cuts are the common versions with "America" and DTHBAOTM in fake stereo. DTHBAOTM sounds bad as always but the rest have top audio. I'm uncertain what year this first press was issued. Some say 1970 some 1973, but the thick vinyl, thick laminated cover and lilac label sure points towards an earlier date. (YDÄ*)(ÄPY*)(MFÄX*)
