Description
Please be aware that all records are VISUALLY graded only - all grades are given based on how they appear under my desk lamp - since I do not own a record player. I cannot guarantee that discs will be click and skip free, although any marks and scratches that might possibly cause such problems will be highlighted clearly in the description.

JOHN LENNON
Wedding Album
This listing is for an original UK pressing of the John Lennon solo LP 'The Wedding Album' from 1969.
The Wedding Album was the third experimental, or avant garde, album that John recorded with Yoko (the previous 2 being Two Virgins and Life With the Lions). The album contains just 2 tracks - track one titled John & Yoko which is just John and Yoko yelling each others names over and over, and Amsterdam, which starts off with Yoko screeching the word 'Peace' for a few minutes, then features interviews that the couple did whilst in Amsterdam for their Bed In protest for peace.
The Wedding Album was only available as a boxset which contained the album and a variety of cuttings and photos, all presented in a simple, white box with a photo of the couple on the front. This listing is for the album only.
Due to its highly experimental nature, this album sold extremely poorly and, in the UK, never even charted. Today, it is exceptionally hard to find a copy of this record!
Please check out large, detailed photos of this record at the bottom of this listing.

It's holding up fine with a little damage here and there. There's some light ringwear and the laminate has started to come away at the bottom left on the front cover. The back has some light but noticeable ringwear and a bubble of laminate at the bottom left corner. Seams are holding fine. The spine has a little damage with a couple of little creases running through it, but is fully legible. There's a little damage at the bottom of the spine. The inside is clean with a little, light browning around the edges and some little creases. Overall, showing its age but holding up okay. Inner Sleeve Condition - Inserts Condition - Disc Condition The disc is in EX+ condition. The disc has a gorgeous, rich shine to it and doesn't look like it's been played much at all! There are a few little hairline scuffs here and there - one slightly more noticeable one on side 1, 1 o'clock, that I can just about feel under my fingertip - if it wasn't for this light mark then the disc would have been graded a solid NM. Label Condition The labels are in M- condition. The labels are pretty much perfect with no wear, rubbing, marking, writing etc. There's no visible spindlewear or any wear whatsoever around the centrehole. Top labels!!
All records have been visually graded under a strong, 125W natural light desk lamp.
