John Renbourn, So Early in the Spring, LP Japan Denon 1980 ‎ - YX 7258 ND 

 

Recorded by Masao Hayashi at Nippon Columbia 2nd Studio, this vinyl was virtually unavailable until 2006, when Castle decided to reissue it digitally, at the initiative of Roger Dopson. The recording is of good quality, and Renbourn's performance is very interesting. The cover photograph, taken by Kenji Sugiyama, shows an unidentifiable location. Artwork by Jack Dawkins. Total time 40:16
