Rare 1971 UK Original With A1/B1 Stampers. Record Appears Glossy, Unplayed. Cover Has Very Light Seam Wear. “Of All The Projects Robert Wyatt Created Apart From His Tenure With Soft Machine And Matching Mole, The End Of An Ear Has To Be The Strangest, And Among The Most Beautiful And Misunderstood Recordings Of His Career. Recorded Near The End Of His Membership In Soft Machine, End Of An Ear Finds Wyatt Experimenting Far More With Jazz And Avant-Garde Material Than In The Jazz-Rock-Structured Environment Of His Band. The Wyatt On The End Of An Ear (A Play On Words For The End Of The SM Era, And Another Session Called "Ear Of The Beholder") Is Still Very Much The Fiery Drummer And Percussionist Who Is Interested In Electronic Effects And Out Jazz And Not The Composer And Interpretive Singer Of His Post-Accident Years.” – Thom Jurek, AMG
