Description

David Bowie 'The Rise And Fall Of Ziggy Stardust' LP

Rare and highly sought after 1st UK pressing with machine-stamped matrices BGBS0864 1E & BGBS0865 1E on 'thick' vinyl

This is a well cared for example

The sleeve has the Robert Stace credit on the reverse and 'A Gem Production' credit without the lower Mainman credit on the reverse. 

The first press 'glossy' labels & top lipped lyric inner sleeve have Titanic / Chrysalis music publishing credits.  

RCA Victor Records SF 8287 ( LSP 4702 ) BGBS0864/5 in 1972


Vinyl grades visually EX with a few slight wispy hairlines/ signs of play. Vinyl retains a nice gloss and looks like it has only been played a few times. 

The cover grades EX with very light ringwear  

The inner sleeve EX with some mild creasing.

The labels are clean and shiny EX with virtually no spindle marks.


Vinyl plays very well on my Dual deck. Side 1 intro and the quieter parts of Five Years there is a little crackle here and there, that does not detract from listening pleasure. There is some occasional light crackle between tracks, but generally speaking, the listening quality is excellent for this album - especially considering that over the years I have never heard a completely perfect or flawless copy of Ziggy.


Overall a superb copy of scarce 1st pressing! Not many first press 1E/1E copies are usually this clean

Some 1E /1E first pressings have fetched over £200 on eBay so this should be a good investment opportunity


Postage £4.50 UK
