Album Cover
The Bevis Frond
Bevis Through The Looking Glass (The Great Magnet Disaster)

Album UK 1987 on Woronzow label
Rock (Folk Rock, Psychedelic Rock)

Collection of very early recordings, in a limited edition of 500 copies, issued in a white sleeve with paper sticker and an insert booklet, a parody on lists as sent by dealers in prog and psych rock. All copies are signed by Nick Solomon on front and handnumbered. Blank labels. The subtitle (The Great Magnet Disaster) refers to the accidental erasure with a speaker magnet of the master tapes for the planned album, this was compiled & released instead. [Now re-released by Rubric Records on CD, 2005 RUB21] All the tracks from this LP were also issued as bonus tracks on Reckless Records CD issues of various Bevis Frond CDs. ----- Additional notes: ATTENTION! Most of the copies which are on the market are counterfeits. Most of them stem from Italy. The original item MUST have the runout information as shown above. It also should have written a few words from Nick Salomon as he also signed the sleeve, and the yellow square should be stuck on with glue. All copies all have different messages on the front. From Nick Saloman (The Bevis Frond) on 9/14/2018: They'd be signed 'Bevis Frond', they should have a 'rare records' booklet inserted, and each side of the vinyl has a message in the run-out grooves, as follows: 'enublian heglon, tangerine infringement beak, spunj toecap, and 'lymph gland'. If the vinyl doesn't have these, then it's not an original. Unnumbered copies are counterfeits, as are copies numbered 229, which also lack the signing of Solomon.
