ATTENTION PROGRESSIVE ROCK MUSIC,PEGASUS LABEL AND RARE 1970s LP COLLECTORS!

ATOMIC ROOSTER:
"IN HEARING OF ATOMIC ROOSTER"

THE 1ST LP ON THE SHORT LIVED AND VERY COLLECTABLE PEGASUS LABEL FROM 40 YEARS AGO ON IT'S VERY FIRST UK PRESSING! 

A SUPERB ORIGINAL UK 1971 THICK VINYL LP IN  EXCELLENT CONDITION WITH ONLY MINOR SIGNS OF WEAR,ULTRA FAINT AND TINY SURFACE MARKS AND HARDLY ANY SURFACE NOISE!

THE GATEFOLD COVER HAS SOME SLIGHT STAINING AND A FEW TINY EDGE CREASES BUT NO WRITING,RIPS OR REPAIRS! 

THIS LP IS VERY HARD TO FIND ON THIS ISSUE AND MY GRADING ARE BASED ON SIGHT AND SOUND!

PEG 1-A STEREO ONLY ISSUE WITH THICK VINYL UNLIKE LATER REPRESSES.

A-1U+B-1U MATRIXES-THE EARLIEST POSSIBLE!.

OF ALL THE PEGASUS LABEL ALBUMS THIS IS ONE OF THE BEST AND MOST POPULAR SO EXPECT KEEN BIDDING ON THIS ONE AT THE LAST MINUTE!

REMEMBER THAT BACK IN 1971,THERE WERE VERY FEW RADIO STATIONS IN THE UK AND MOST OF THE TIME,ALBUM TRACKS OR ALBUM BASED ARTISTS WERE ONLY TO BE HEARD ON LATE NIGHT SPECIALIST SHOWS SUCH AS SOUNDS OF THE 70s WITH JOHN PEEL.AWAY FROM THE UK,RADIO LUXEMBOURG HAD A LATE NIGHT ROCK SHOW BUT MOST FANS OF THE GENRE HAD TO EITHER BUY"BLIND"OR TRY OUT NEW RELEASES AT THE LOCAL RECORD SHOP,MOST OF WHICH WOULD ONLY GET THE MORE OBSCURE ALBUMS SUCH AS THIS ONE TO SPECIAL ORDER.

THIS IS THE FIRST TRULY DECENT COPY I HAVE FOUND IN AGES AND MORE OFTEN THAN NOT WHEN THESE LPs TURN UP,THEY TEND TO  HAVE BEEN STORED IN DAMP LOFTS OR GARAGES FOR YEARS,HAVING BEEN BADLY TREATED OR TAKEN TO PARTIES WHERE OF COURSE CASUAL,CLUMSY HANDLING RESULTED IN DEEP SCRATCHES AND WEAR.ALSO A RARELY CHANGED STYLI WOULD LEAVE BEHIND A NASTY FILM OF GROOVE DISTORTION"FIZZ".

THIS COPY HAS NOT HAD ANY OF THOSE PROBLEMS! A VERY NICE COPY!  

A NICE COPY FROM A RELIABLE  SELLER AND LONG TERM COLLECTOR!  

MANY COPIES WERE PLAYED ON PORTABLE PLAYERS,OR OLD EQUIPMENT AND EVEN THE MOST CAREFUL FANS WOULD HAVE PLAYED THEM DOZENS OF TIMES,THIS LP HAS HAD A FEW PLAYS BUT APART FROM A FEW FAINT SURFACE MARKS AND A LITTLE CRACKLE HERE AND THERE AT QUIETER MOMENTS,THE GROOVES ARE FREE OF NASTY POPS,CLICKS AND HISSES!

IT PLAYS AND SOUNDS EXCELLENT! 

HARDLY ANY SURFACE NOISE WHATSOEVER !

CLEAN LABELS AND COVER WITH NO WRITING OR MAJOR STAINING.  STILL IN GREAT SHAPE-BETTER THAN MOST OF THE ERA THAT SURVIVE!

PLEASE SEE THE PHOTOS! 

MY STRICT  GRADINGS BASED ON SIGHT AND SOUND ARE IN MOST CASES REGARDED BY MANY AS NEAR MINT! BID WITH TOTAL CONFIDENCE!

PLEASE CHECK OUT MY FEEDBACK! 

IT IS TIME FOR ANOTHER DELIGHT FROM ONE OF THE UKs LEADING RECORD  EXPERTS/DEALERS.

 THESE RECORDINGS MAY BE POSSIBLE TO FIND ON CD BUT SOUND BEST ON THICK PRESSED STEREO VINYL!

THE SOUND IS CLEAR,WITH  HARDLY ANY SURFACE NOISE WHATSOEVER!

THE TRACKS ARE AS FOLLOWS:

BREAKTHROUGH

BREAK THE ICE

DECISION-INDECISION

A SPOONFUL OF BROMIDE HELPS THE PULSE RATE GO DOWN

BLACK SNAKE

HEAD IN THE SKY

A PROGRESSIVE ROCK/PEGASUS LABEL COLLECTORS DREAM-PLEASE READ ON FOR IN DEPTH DETAILS!!

I HAVE NOT FOUND SUCH BREATHTAKING QUALITY FOR AN LP OF THIS VINTAGE FOR QUITE SOMETIME.THEY ARE SIMPLY NOT TURNING UP AS FREQUENTLY AS THEY DID,EVEN FIVE YEARS AGO.MOST HAVE NOW LEFT THE UK FOR THE COLLECTIONS OF JAPAN,AMERICA AND THE FAR EAST NEVER TO RETURN TO THE SELLING MARKET.

THIS MAY BE YOUR LAST CHANCE TO GET SUCH A BRILLIANT COPY LIKE THIS ONE IN EXCELLENT CONDITION!

PLEASE LOOK AT THE PHOTOS OF THE BRIGHTNESS AND SHARPNESS OF THE LABEL AND THE COVER!

DON'T FORGET JUST HOW EXPENSIVE LPs WERE FOR THE AVERAGE BUYER.AN LP WAS USUALLY A CAREFULLY CONSIDERED PURCHASE OVER WEEKS AND EVEN MONTHS,WHICH EXPLAINS WHY SO FEW TURN UP.

CHECK OUT YOUR COPY IF YOU HAVE ONE-CAN YOU REALLY PUT UP WITH THE ONE YOU HAVE GOT AND WILL YOU REGRET IT LATER? IF NOTHING ELSE THIS IS A FANTASTIC INVESTMENT!

I AM SURE TO REGRET NOT KEEPING IT BUT THAT'S LIFE! THE HOUSE IS FULL AS IT IS! 

THE PREVIOUS OWNER WAS A HI-FI BUFF.IT IS HIGHLY PROBABLE THAT THIS IS ONE OF THE BEST EXAMPLES OF THIS RECORD TO APPEAR ON EBAY FOR YEARS DIRECT FROM SOMEONE WHO WAS A CONNOISEUR! 

THOSE OF YOU WHO HAVE BEEN DEALING WITH ME ON EBAY SINCE 2002 AND INDEED ELSEWHERE BEFORE SINCE 1986, WILL PROBABLY KNOW I HAVE BEEN A RESPECTED  MUSIC EXPERT AND COLLECTOR FOR MANY YEARS CALLED UPON BY RADIO,TV AND PRICE GUIDES FOR MY ADVICE AND KNOWLEDGE.

WHILST I AM IN THE BUSINESS TO SELL, I CARE DEEPLY ABOUT THE ITEMS I AM SELLING.

IN A COMPETITIVE MARKET SUCH AS EBAY, THIS IS GETTING RARE SO YOU CAN BID WITH COMPLETE CONFIDENCE!

A VERY NICE THICK VINYL PRESSING!  

MOST COPIES THAT SURVIVE ARE IN POOR CONDITION.THIS ONE IS IN DECENT ORDER WITH HARDLY ANY SURFACE NOISE EVEN WITH THE TREBLE FULL ON TO"CATCH"ANY GROOVE WEAR AND THAT IS BEING STRICT! 

NO STICKS!/NO JUMPS!/NO CLICKS!/NO SWISHES!/NO DISTORTION!

The STEREO mixes are Superb and full of bass, with a natural warmth from those LP days OF 40 YEARS AGO!

In the early 1970s, many were using terrible old and heavy equipment and using worn styli or nasty autochangers that would scuff the discs forever in seconds at the time not aware that years later even the slightest damage would be evident on more sophisticated audio.

The 1970s equipment was quite often a bit basic and it was suggested to play LPs at between 5 and 8 grammes, which of course after a few plays would produce on later plays that nasty"film of fizzy distortion"so often IGNORED by sellers and in MY LISTENING GRADING is ALWAYS LISTENED OUT FOR WITH THE TREBLE FULL ON AND PLAYED TO ENSURE THE BEST AND MOST ACURATE GRADING!!!!

 To find SUPER copies all these years later is getting almost impossible!FACT!

THEY ARE SIMPLY DRYING UP! 

These mixes are far punchier but are rather flat on the CDs that have come out!

Vinyl is still the best way to hear PROGRESSIVE ROCK MUSIC and always will be!  

GREAT WIDE RANGE SOUND WITH GREAT BASS!

I TEST ALL THE WAY THROUGH WITHOUT FILTERING OR A MONO SWITCH.

There is no spindle wear.  

Look elsewhere on ebay and you MIGHT see other copies-Look closer and you will find they are often reissues or lower grade copies with all manner of faults.

MOST RECORDS ON EBAY ARE IN DIABOLICAL, BAD CONDITIONS ATTEMPTED TO BE  SOLD BY PEOPLE WHO DO NOT KNOW HOW TO GRADE OR BOTHER TO ACTUALLY PLAY THEM FOR AN ACURATE DESCRIPTION!

This is A POSSIBLE UPGRADER COPY-EXAMINE YOURS IF YOU HAVE ONE AT ALL AND IT MAY NOT BE AS GOOD AS YOU THINK! .

THE LP WILL BE REMOVED FROM IT'S COVER BEFORE SENDING!
