Coming Your Way
This album is from a DJ's personal collection.
Played once for recording on tape, and then taken home and put back in a protective inner sleeve, which is plastic on the inside and paper on the outside. He also put them in a heavy protective plastic album covers.
So they have been double sealed.In some case over, 40 + years. Since that time they have been rarely played.

SUPERB ALBUM GEM!!!
"Then Play On" album is a joyful experience. The amazing Peter Green (guitar, vocals), the steady rhythm section of Mick Fleetwood (drums) and John McVie (bass), all fresh from some serious schooling in the ranks of the legendary John Mayall's Bluesbreakers, formed Fleetwood Mac in 1967, joined by guitarist Jeremy Spencer, and, just before this set was recorded, guitarist Danny Kirwin. Their first couple of albums [FLEETWOOD MAC (1967) and MR.WONDERFUL (1968)] were well-received by critics and fans alike in theie native UK -- with THEN PLAY ON, the band began to expand their songwriting horizons, while remaining true to their blues roots.
The guitar work from the triumvirate of Green/Spencer/Kirwan is stunning, as are their vocals -- each infusing his own compositions with a unique personality, yet fitting into the overall sound of the band at the same time. There are some memorable unbeat, rockin' tunes here -- but what stands out after all of these years are the slower, moodier pieces -- vocals and instrumentals alike.
Green's 'Closing my eyes', the second track on the album, is one of the most heartfelt expressions of loneliness and despair heard -- but it's not maudlin. He can sing '...one day I'll die -- maybe then I'll be with you' and it doesn't come across as trite for even a second. Danny Kirwan contributes three tunes in this laid-back but strongly emotional vein as well: 'Although the sun is shining' has an achingly beautiful, unusual chord progression -- 'When you say' and 'Like Crying' are gems as well. The instrumentals -- Kirwan's 'My dream', Green's 'Underway', are things of beauty, and the two jams 'Searching for Madge' and 'Fighting for Madge' allow the bandmembers to stretch out a bit in a more upbeat vein.
There are rockers here as well -- notably two classics from Peter Green, the classic 'Coming My Way' and the playfully nasty 'Rattlesnake Shake' ...
