70's Compilation Album


Does anyone recall the double album that came out in the 70s? I think it had some kind of denim look on the sleeve and may have been the first album to call the different line-ups 'Mark 1' and 'Mark 2'. Is there any further info on this with track listing etc? Sorry if this is a glaringly obvious query with an easy answer but it has only just come back to me after all these years.

Yes I remember. Don't know the exact tracklist, but I see it sometimes for sale on Ebay, most of the times for very unreasonnable prices.

That's the one. I got it confused with another one...'Purple Passages'.

 Without doing a bit of research, I've wondered through the years whether that pic - both front & rear jacket shots - were, in fact, of a female...let's face it, without 100% conclusive evidence to the contrary, it's possib;e that that's a male in the pics. emoticon
