About Import Dates: These change frequently for a host of reasons: customs, transportation, communication issues, etc. They usually fill but sometimes weeks after the published date. Treat them as guidelines only.

Special order. We may not stock this in the shop, but we'd be glad to order one for you. Orders placed less than 30 days before release typically fill, but on allocated products there's a greater chance they won't or will be delayed. If it doesn't fill, which is rare, we'll give you a full refund.

Description

180gm translucent red vinyl, gatefold outer sleeve, printed inner sleeve with deluxe trifold booklet. Grave New World, released on 4 February 1972, reached number 11 in the UK Albums chart, selling almost 100,000 copies in the UK alone. It was one of the albums of which David Cousins was most proud. He continued to perform songs such as New World and Benedictus throughout his career. In developing Strawbs 50th Anniversary, to be held in Lakewood, New Jersey, USA from 26 April through 28 April 2019, David decided that the programme should include the only live performance of the album. As such, he invited Wesley Stace to collaborate with him in writing a narration for this 'theatrical performance'.
