Blegavd's 2015 book is described at www.colinsackett.co.uk. But, for some reason, the web address is blacklisted by Wikipedia. But I now see it is already circumvented by means of www.webcitation.org.Martinevans123 (talk) 21:18, 28 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
The reasons cited should be attributed better or labeled as original research as neither are real reaons but are probably at best a joke someone made. In reality the album did not sell well as it was not a pop album and was not one of the fluke non-pop albums to come to wide notice - as Mike Oldfield's Tubular Bells managed to do. But the Sex Pistols and "anti-intelectual zeitgeist" had nothing to do with its lack of sales!

I've added an "Additional citations needed" tag to that statement. —Bruce1eetalk 15:53, 9 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Not sure it's a joke. But not sure it's a robust explanation either. Mentioned in a blog review at jazzmusicarchves here where the reviewer describes it as "last relics of the fading prog scene of the 70s". Virgin, like most other commercial labels in 1977, needed to cover all the market bases they could Martinevans123 (talk) 16:03, 9 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
