Crown Of Creation

Very smart clean vinyl with nice flipback high gloss cover.

Crown of Creation was released in 1968 and is the fourth album by the San Francisco rock band Jefferson Airplane, released as RCA Victor LSP-4058 (stereo). A mono version was released only to radio in the US (as LPM-4058), but was released commercially in other countries. This was the last Jefferson Airplane album to be released in mono. In addition, although the cover features the newer "modern" RCA Victor logos, initial stereo pressings and all mono pressings were on the black "Nipper" label (instead of the orange label associated with those logos). The album peaked at number 6 on the album charts and was eventually certified gold. The David Crosby-penned "Triad" is the only track not composed by an Airplane member, except that the lyrics to the title song are based on lines from John Wyndham's novel The Chrysalids) - unattributed, but with his permission. "Triad" was previously rejected for release by Crosby's group The Byrds as being too risqué.
