Description
AGAIN FROM MY PERSONAL VAST COLLECTION, THIS IS THE INCREDIBLY RARE & ESSENTIAL PROG MONSTER LP BY AARDVARK FROM 1970. JUST ONE SPINDLE TRACE THIS RECORD HAS BARELY BEEN PLAYED AT ALL. THE VERY EARLIEST MADE IN GT. BRITAIN FIRST 1970 DREAM NOVA PRESSING. RECORD DN17 WITH MATRICES ARL 9459P-2A (side 1) and ARL 9460P-1A (side 2). THERE ARE A FEW BUT NOT VERY MANY LIGHT SURFACE MARKS WHICH ARE INAUDIBLE, EXCEPT FOR A MARK WHICH CAUSES A LIGHT TICK ON EACH REVOLUTION THROUGH THE TRACK 'ONCE UPON A HILL' ON SIDE TWO. SO ALTHOUGH ONLY PLAYED A VERY FEW TIMES INDEED THE VINYL IS VG to VG+. APART FROM THE TICK ON THE SECOND TRACK ON SIDE TWO IT PLAYS ABSOLUTELY FINE WITH FANTASTIC UNWORN DYNAMIC SOUND. THE LAMINATED FRONT/ UNLAMINATED BACK COVER MADE BY CLOUT & BAKER Ltd IS VG+ ALSO. THE FRONT IS VERY NICE WITH JUST A BIT OF CREASING BUT A SMALL RECTANGULAR HOLE HAS BEEN CUT OUT ON THE BACK TOWARDS THE BOTTOM ON THE LEFT HAND SIDE. FINE SPINE etc. I HAVE TAKEN 7 PHOTOS TO TRY & SHOW EVERYTHING AS CLEARLY AS I POSSIBLY CAN. THIS IS AN ABSOLUTE MUST FOR THE PROGRESSIVE/HEAVY COLLECTOR & AMAZING MUSIC. EXTINCT NOW PARTICULARLY IN MONO. SO HARDLY PLAYED BUT VG+. Postage is £3.99 to UK First Class Recorded, £8.99 to Europe Signed For Airmail and £10.99 to the rest of the world Signed for Airmail. Sent in new card board mailers with card board stiffeners either side.
