Ok, folks. I got it from a Polish profile "Codziennie inna okładka płyty progresywnej" (A different progressive album cover every day) on Facebook.

"The First International Sex Opera Band - Anita (1969)
The band of one album that was ‘Anita’ is also the band of .... a rather controversial to some and ambiguous album. It was not even clear who was playing and ‘singing’ here, as the musicians hid their names under pseudonyms. The album was not even sold in official shop distribution, but was to be found in sex shops and erotic clubs in Amsterdam. The whole thing is filled with two 15-minute tracks with characteristics similar to jazz-rock, psychedelic and krautrock jams with pretty decent guitar and organ parts with overlaid moans, whimpers, screams and cries."

I've owned this one for a few years now but never considered suggesting it here. To me it sounds experimental much like Cromagnon and other far out trips of the 60s but not really prog or even prog related.

Certain free form albums just don't seem like they fit here.

Probably can't hurt to evaluate it at least.

I wouldn't mind evaluating it, but we need an actual original biography before we can proceed.

They have been cleared for addition, but we still need Tuzvihar to provide a biography.

^ which is a reminder not to evaluate suggestions unless a bio is presented first

I have a hunch the recorded music was just an excuse to get this lewd artwork into print. :)
