Sealed 1977 Texture Jacket Original. For An Avid Reader Of Science Fiction In The 70s, This Album Was Awesome. This Album Is Like A Sci-Fi Book For The Ears. Just Like Any Great Sci-Fi Book, Where Not Very Page Or Every Chapter Is Fabulously Written, Not Every Song On Hope Is Wondrous. But As The Chapters Work To Make The Great Book, Hope's Songs Make An Awesome Album. Still Have My Vinyl And Still Listen To The It The Way It Was Meant To Be, Front To Back, In Its Entirety. I Can't End This Without Mention Of The Title Song, "Hope". Phenomenal Lyrics; "All Is Lost If One Abandons Hope."
