Fairport Convention, Unhalfbricking, LP USA A&M (November 1969) - SP4206

The American edition of "Unhalfbricking" has very naive, almost surreal graphics (the clouds, the elephants) which contrast with the much more classic version of Island (Sandy's elderly parents in front of the garden of their house). Art direction of Tom Wilkes.

L'edizione americana, decisamente da collezione, ha una grafica molto naif, quasi surreale (le nuvole, gli elefanti) che fa contrasto con quella,molto più classica, della Island (gli anziani genitori di Sandy davanti al giardino della loro villa). La grafica dicopertina è opera di Tom Wilkes.
