Description

Here we have a never seen before grail of Charisma pressings, Audience's Friends Friends Friends on UK pink Charisma But this never seen before pressing has textured pink labels with a heavyweight vinyl and deep groove press.. On the Outter rim of the label is a groove and also on the inner is another deep groove. Like something you would see from a Decca Contract Pressing of a rare Beatles Lp.. what makes this SO RARE IS THE MATRIX IS ALSO TOTALLY DIFFERENT ON THIS PRESSING.. the Matrix on the B side is also pressed on the actual label!! there are no stampers on either side.. i can only conclude that this was thee first ever press of this record?..It's ULTRA RARE and as i've said before it's totally undocumented until now!! for the Prog collectors, Charisma Label collectors etc. this is a holy Grail...especially since it's a obscure and fantastic press of such a TOP ALBUM... Housed in its gatefold Sleeve with the marvellous artwork it's a think of rare beauty!

Matrix are as follows:

Side A: CAS + 1012+A

Side B: CAS + 1012+B (stamped on outer rim of label!!)
