Various Artists - Heads Together, First Round (Vertigo 1971) 24-bit/96kHz Vinyl Rip

Waiting in the darkness of many publishing offices are songwriters wanting their freedom-Songwriters’ Workshop has opened the door. Fourteen such songwriters have come together, not only to play football, but also to create an album which we hope will indicate the importance of the songwriter. Unlike a sampler, it does not represent other albums. It is an entity, presenting new songs, new writers, and giving light to songs that would otherwise be lost. This is just the first round of HEADS TOGETHER-a hope for the future. Cas Thomas, Songwriters’ Workshop (original sleeve notes)
