ONE OF THE ORIGINAL SUPERGROUPS. A STUNNING LP FEATURING "SUNSHIE OF YOUR LOVE" AND "TALES OF BRAVE ULLYSSES"
IT IS RARE INDEED TO FIND AN LP OF THIS CALIBER IN MINT CONDITION, BUT HERE IS ONE IN SUCH STUNNING CONDITION THAT IT CAN QUITE SIMPLY BE CALLED NO LESS.
FIRSTLY LET ME START BY SAYING THIS IS NOT A VERY FIRST PRESS, BUT A SECOND PRESS WHICH YOU CAN TELL FROM THE MATRIX NUMBERS. STILL A 1967 PRESSING HOWEVER.
SO LETS START BY EXAMINING THIS SLEEVE.
A LAMINATED FRONT SURFACE, AND A NON LAMINATED REAR SURFACE. IT LOOKS STUNNING . THE FRONT SURFACE IS FLAT AND CLEAN, AND THERE ARE NO SIGNS OF LAMINATE SPLITS ANYWHERE. THERE IS ONE SLIGHT NEAR INVISIBLE HALF CREASE AROUND THE TOP LEFT CORNER, BUT THE CARD ISN'T BENT SO IT HAS NOT AFFECTED THE LAMINATE OTHER THAN A SMALL LINE
THE BOTTOM AND TOP EDGES ARE BOTH UNWORN. THE SPINE HAS SLIGHTLY RECEIVED A SMALL BIT OF SHELF WEAR, WHILST THE OPENING EDGE IS RAZOR SHARP AND UNFEATHERED.
THE REAR SURFACE IS ALSO UNBLEMISHED, AND LOOKS SUPERB.
ALL IN ALL I WOULD EASILY GRADE THIS SLEEVE AS EX+
NOW ONTO THE VINYL. FIRSTLY THE LABELS.
ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE!!UNBLEMISHED, NO SMUDGES OR FINGERSTAINS, AND THIS LIGHT BLUE IS PRONE TO MARKING. THE SPINDLE HOLE IS 100% UNWORN, AND I CAN ONLY MAKE OUT ABOUT 2 SPIDER LINES, AND I RECKON THATS ABOUT HOW MANY PLAYS THE LP HAS HAD IN ITS LIFE TIME.
I AM VERY VERY IMPRESSED THAT THE PREVIOUS OWNER HAS NOT ONLY HANDLED THE LP GENTLY, BUT HAS PLAYED IT WITH THE UTMOST CARE AS WELL.
GENTLY LOWERING THE STYLUS ONTO THE TURNTABLE REVEALS A TOTTALY SILENT RUN IN GROOVE. THIS IS EXACTLY THE SAME ON SIDE 2.
THERE IS NO BACKGROUND NOISE AT ALL, AND EVEN THE LINKING GROOVES ARE SILENT.
A VERY VERY SUPERB AUDIO EXPERIENCE, AND THIS LP WILL NEVER NEED UPGRADING .
A HIGH GRADE COLLECTIBLE LP, WHICH WILL GRACE ANY COLLECTION
