Description: We are called Rita's Rare Finds because all the albums and collectibles we list are hard to find in the condition we have them. I am probably one of the only sellers who has the original release of this iconic music from all these English bands I had never heard of and that pretty much changed my life and started the sixties era of new and different music in near mint condition. I'm sure you can find lots of the same record in good or very good condition or reissues from the year 2,000 and something, but not in near mint, not the first release from 1969. We are unusual because I made it a point with my collection to only let me be the one to play my records being very careful, holding them by the edges and not messing them up in the process of recording them so I wouldn't have to keep playing the record if I wanted to listen to it again. This was how I kept my collection in the excellent condition my albums are in. Some online record sellers show albums that look great but they were actually professionally cleaned. I do have some good records I got second hand in my collection but I will always price them lower and inform the buyer of the way I got the album. This album has a compilation of different bands from England and every song is excellent. When I want to hear different kinds of music without having to keep putting on record after record I listen to this recording and never get tired of it. At the time this record introduced me to King Crimson, Nick Drake, Heavy Jelly, and Blodwyn Pig. I went on to buy albums from all these bands because they were good and different than main stream groups like Boston, Journey, and others you hear on the radio all day long. If you want to hear what was coming out of the UK in 1969 you won't be disappointed with Nice Enough To Eat. A collectors item to enjoy and treasure.Side one[edit]"Cajun Woman" (Thompson) – Fairport Convention – (from Unhalfbricking (ILPS 9102)) - 2:41"At the Crossroads" (Sahm) – Mott the Hoople – (from Mott the Hoople (ILPS 9108)) - 5:28"Better By You, Better Than Me" (Wright) – Spooky Tooth – (from Spooky Two (ILPS 9098)) - 3:29"We Used To Know" (Anderson) - Jethro Tull – (from Stand Up (ILPS 9103)) - 3:58"Woman" (Fraser/Rodgers) – Free – (from Free (ILPS 9104)) - 3:45"I Keep Singing That Same Old Song" (Gibson)[3] – Heavy Jelly – Island 7" (b/w "Blue") (WIP 6049) - 8:19Side two[edit]"Sing Me A Song That I Know" (Abrahams) – Blodwyn Pig – (from Ahead Rings Out (ILPS 9101))- 3:04"(Roamin' Thro' The Gloamin' With) Forty Thousand Headmen" (Winwood/Capaldi) – Traffic – (from Best of Traffic)[4] (ILPS 9112)) - 3:12"Time Has Told Me" (Drake) – Nick Drake – (from Five Leaves Left (ILPS 9105)) - 4:23"21st Century Schizoid Man" (Fripp/McDonald/Lake/Giles/Sinfield)– King Crimson – (from In the Court of the Crimson King[5] (ILPS 9111)) - 7:20"Gungamai" (Rothfield/Shankar/Bhava) – Quintessence – (from In Blissful Company (ILPS 9110Q)) - 4:17"Strangely Strange But Oddly Normal" (Pawle) – Dr. Strangely Strange – (from Kip of the Serenes (ILPS 9106)) - 4:26
