The Nice ‎– Ars Longa Vita Brevis

RARE/2HAND VINYL ON IMMEDIATE 1968

Immediate, 020 made in the UK. 

Vinyl VG+. Cover VG.

The Nice's second album, and their first as a trio, was a genuinely groundbreaking effort, and now it sounds the way it was always supposed to. The 1998 Castle Communications reissue (ESM 646), part of its Essential Masters series, puts even the version in the 1995 Charly box to shame -- that was clean and clear, where this is bright, with a much more solid high end and richer bass as well.
