Description
On offer here is a very VERY rare LP (especially in this condition!!!!) by Cream called "Disraeli Gears" and is an ORIGINAL 1967 UK 1st Pressing on the 1st Press Blue Reaction label!!!! THIS LP IS SERIOUSLY RARE AND VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND!!!! IT IS ONE OF CREAM'S RAREST LPs EVER - AND VIRTUALLY NEVER TURNS UP FOR SALE!!!! JUST TRY AND FIND ANOTHER ONE!!!! THIS IS ONE OF THE MOST SOUGHT AFTER LPs OF ALL TIME, AND IS INCREDIBLY HARD TO FIND TODAY!!!! BUT WHAT MAKES THIS LP REALLY SPECIAL - IS THAT IT IS 1ST PRESSED IN MEGA RARE STEREO!!!! AND THIS IS VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND ON THIS LP!!!! WHEN THIS LP WAS FIRST RELEASED IN THE UK BACK IN 1967, NEARLY EVERY 1ST PRESSING WAS MADE IN COMMON MONO - WITH VIRTUALLY NONE IN MEGA RARE STEREO AT ALL!!!! AND DEMAND FOR STEREOs WAS SO ABSOLUTELY TINY, THAT MOST SHOPS STILL DIDNT EVEN STOCK STEREOs AS STANDARD IN 1967 - AND STEREO 1ST PRESSINGS WERE ONLY AVAILABLE BY 'SPECIAL ORDER' ONLY!!!! AS A RESULT, FINDING A 1ST PRESSING OF THIS LP IN MEGA RARE STEREO IS VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE - AS BARELY ANY WERE EVER MADE!!!!
AND PLEASE BE VERY AWARE - WHILST LATER STEREO PRESSINGS FROM 1968/69 ARE VERY COMMON INDEED - THIS ULTRA RARE 'EARLIEST' 1ST PRESS 'DAY OF RELEASE' STEREO PRESSING IS OF THE UTMOST RARITY, AND BARELY EVER SEEN - SO PLEASE READ ON, FOR THIS LP IS TRULY RARE IN EVERY RESPECT!!!!
THIS LP IS QUITE LITERALLY THE 'EARLIEST' 1ST PRESSING EVER MADE - WITH SOME AMAZING DIFFERENCES THAT ALL LATER PRESSINGS SIMPLY NEVER HAD!!!! I WILL NOW EXPLAIN THE VERY IMPORTANT DIFFERENCES:- FIRSTLY THIS LP HAS A1/B1 STEREO MATRIX ENDINGS (ALL LATER STEREO PRESSINGS DONT!)!!!! SECONDLY ON THE SIDE 2 LABEL - IT HAS THE CORRECT RELEASE DATE '1967' - WHEREAS ON ALL LATER PRESSINGS THIS WAS SUDDENLY CHANGED TO '1966' (ON ACCOUNT OF SOME SONGS BEING WRITTEN IN 1966)!!!! IT IS ALSO VERY IMPORTANT TO NOTE THAT THE VINYL IS ALSO MUCH MUCH HEAVIER THAN ALL LATER PRESSINGS (LATER ONES ARE MUCH THINNER!)!!!! ONLY THE ULTRA RARE 'EARLIEST' 1967 STEREO 1ST PRESSINGS OF THIS LP HAVE 1/1 STEREO MATRIX ENDINGS, & THE 1967 DATE TO BOTH LABELS - AND ARE SERIOUSLY RARE IN EVERY RESPECT!!!!
AND OF COURSE - BEING THE 'EARLIEST POSSIBLE' STEREO 1ST PRESSING EVER MADE - THIS LP ALSO HAS A FULLY LAMINATED 'E.J.DAY' STEREO 'PATENTS PENDING' COVER!!!! AND THIS FULLY LAMINATED COVER IS AGAIN THE 'EARLIEST POSSIBLE' WITH THE REACTION LOGO (BOTTOM LEFT ON REVERSE) IN WHITE (LATER ONES WERE IN BLACK) AND THE RIGHT HAND TRACK LISTING ON THE REVERSE OF THE COVER IS ALSO IN WHITE - WHEREAS LATER COVERS HAD THIS IN BLACK!!!! ALSO AS A 1ST PRESS COVER - THE TEXT 'STEREO 594 003' IS PRINTED IN THICK BLACK TEXT IN THE TOP LEFT CORNER ON THE REVERSE OF THE FULLY LAMINATED COVER (LATER COVERS HAD A WHITE BOX INSTEAD IN THE TOP RIGHT!). THIS ONLY EVER APPLIED TO 'EARLIEST' 1ST PRESSINGS ONLY - AND WAS IMMEDIATELY CORRECTED!!!! SO THIS IS WITHOUT ANY DOUBT THE 'EARLIEST POSSIBLE' FULLY LAMINATED 1ST PRESS COVER FOR THIS LP - AND COMPLETELY ORIGINAL TO THE RECORD!!!! AND COUPLED WITH ITS ORIGINAL 'EARLIEST POSSIBLE' 1ST PRESS RECORD - IT MAKES THIS THE 'EARLIEST' & RAREST 1ST PRESSING OF THIS LP YOU CAN POSSIBLY GET!!!!
NOT ONLY THAT BUT THIS LP IS IN BRILLIANT CONDITION - AND CLEARLY HASNT BEEN PLAYED MUCH AT ALL!!!! JUST TAKE A LOOK AT THE PICTURES!!!! THIS IS THE ORIGINAL 1967 UK 'EARLIEST' STEREO 1ST PRESSING ON THE 'EARLIEST' 1ST PRESS REACTION LABELS, 'EARLIEST' 1ST PRESS 1/1 STEREO MATRIX ENDINGS, 'EARLIEST' 1ST PRESS INNER SLEEVE, AND 'EARLIEST' 1ST PRESS FULLY LAMINATED 'PATENTS PENDING' E.J.DAY STEREO COVER!!!! THIS LP IS SERIOUSLY RARE AND VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND AS A 100% GENIUNE 1967 'EARLIEST' UK STEREO 1ST PRESSING (WITH THESE AMAZING DIFFERENCES!) - SO DONT MISS OUT ON THIS INCREDIBLE OPPORTUNITY!!!! This is the ORIGINAL UK Reaction 1st Pressing from 1967 and is in BRILLIANT condition!!!! The record is pressed on MEGA THICK quality vinyl (MUCH thicker vinyl than ANY later pressing!)!!!! The Cat. No is 594 003 on the ORIGINAL 1st Press Blue Reaction Label (see picture) and is a much MUCH rarer UK STEREO 1st pressing!!!!
The record labels are in SUPERB condition (see pictures) with NO wear, NO writing, and only a few VERY light spindle marks!!!! IT IS VERY CLEAR THAT THIS RECORD HASNT BEEN PLAYED MUCH AT ALL!!!! The vinyl is in BRILLIANT condition!!!! Most of these 60s LPs had been to a lot of wild parties and are usually found totally worn out, and almost unplayable. This one is NOT and has NO scratches, NO hairlines, only 2 or 3 VERY light scufflines, and only a VERY few of the lightest paper scuffs only visible under light!!!! ITS AS SIMPLE AS THAT!!!! THE RECORD STILL RETAINS ITS ORIGINAL 'JUST PRESSED' LOOK AND SHINES LIKE NEW!!!! It is great to find that the record plays almost as STUNNINGLY as the visual with NO pops, barely ANY clicks AT ALL, NO sticking, NO jumps, barely ANY crackle AT ALL, and only some slight background sound on the run on grooves & gaps - NOT in the music AT ALL!!!! The sound quality is simply SUPERB with NO groovewear and NO distortion either!!!! The record must visually grade Very Good++++ if not better (with the playing grade slightly less)!!!! Believe me this record is NOT overgraded in ANY way!!!! I use STRICT RC grading standards - it is not in my interest not to!!!! Brillant!!!! The record also comes in its ORIGINAL 1st Press inner sleeve which is in BRILLIANT condition!!!! The ORIGINAL 'Earliest' 1st Press 'E.J.Day' FULLY Laminated 'Patents Pending' STEREO Cover is in BRILLIANT condition!!!! The cover has NO edge wear, NO spinal wear, only VERY slight corner wear (NOT through the colour), NO splits, only a VERY few light creases (cover is VERY flat looking indeed!), VERY shiny laminate, NO rips, NO tears, only some VERY minor evidence of 'tipping in' to the corners, NO annotations, and NO writing!!!! The opening edge is beautifully straight with barely ANY feathering AT ALL!!!! Even the laminated back of the cover is in BRILLIANT condition with NO grubbyness, NO yellowing, and NO writing!!!! The cover must grade Very Good++++ if not better!!!! BRILLIANT COVER!!!! THIS LP IS VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND AS A 100% GENIUNE 1967 STEREO 'EARLIEST' 1ST PRESSING - WITH A FULLY LAMINATED COVER, 1967 DATE TO BOTH LABELS, AND A/1 B/1 STEREO MATRIX ENDINGS!!!! THIS LP IS SERIOUSLY RARE AND VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND LIKE THIS - DONT MISS OUT ON THIS INCREDIBLE OPPORTUNITY!!!!

Though there are rarely ever any problems with my items (I always try my very best to describe everything exactly!) - PLEASE REMEMBER to contact with me FIRST, if you have any problems at all, before you leave feedback and star ratings, so I get a chance to turn any negative experience into a positive one! I can always happily sort anything out for you, if you let me know you have a problem! This way no one has to leave Negative/Neutral feedback - and we both walk away happy! Please do NOT bid if you cannot give me at least 1 chance to sort everything out to your FULL satisfaction in the unlikely event of a problem. Thanks again - Graham @ XXXRecords. PLEASE NOTE - Private feedback bidders must consult me first prior to bidding - due to previous problems regarding non-payment, and non-receipt. MY POSTAGE UNDERCHARGE GUARANTEE TO ALL BUYERS (I always undercharge on postage!):- Due to UK Royal Mail's obscene price increases this year - I have had no choice but to increase postage charges a little. Until this year - I had kept them exactly the same since I joined ebay back in 2002. However this years price increases have been so obscene, that I have had no choice but to increase my postage charges for the first time ever. However PLEASE NOTE - my absolute 100% guarantee to you as a buyer - is that I will ALWAYS undercharge postage on everything I send out. Even after the increases, I am still charging you the buyer LESS than I am being charged myself. On each package I send out - the price is clearly stated on the front of the package (please check it when you recieve it!). I also do NOT charge for packaging costs - ONLY for postal costs! And should you find that I have overcharged you postage in ANY way - I will refund DOUBLE the difference. THAT IS MY 100% POSTAL GUARANTEE FOR EACH AND EVERY BUYER! No buyer EVER deserves to be overcharged on postage - and on my listings, I'll make sure they are ALWAYS undercharged. Any questions - please ask!
