Spiral Press, 1957. First edition. Rare and wonderful music record, LP that is, with Thomas's booming Welsh voice. The record seems in good shape but it is the original Frasconi sleeve that takes the cake. A bold beauty by Frasconi that is awfully hard to come by these days. An early Spiral Press item as well, the artwork was executed especially for this recording. and the cover printed by Joseph Blumenthal's Spiral Press
