Ultra rare UK first pressing of Escalator by Sam Gopal on Stable (SLE 8001), signed by Sam Gopal himself at The Tabernacle, London, in 2002. Sam Gopal's Escalator stands as one of the most sought-after and elusive British progressive rock albums of the late 1960s. Originally released in 1969 on the independent Stable label, original pressings are extraordinarily scarce. This copy is further elevated by Sam Gopal's personal signature, making it an exceptional collector's piece and true holy grail for serious enthusiasts of obscure UK rock. Sam Gopal’s 1969 psychedelic masterwork Escalator is legendary among collectors largely because it features Ian "Lemmy" Kilmister—then credited as Ian Willis—years before he founded Motörhead ⸻ Sleeve (VG+): The gatefold sleeve presents in strong condition, showing only light shelfwear consistent with careful handling and storage.
