Description
David Bowie Hunky Dory LP UK 1st Press **Bobil/Rasputin** SUPER AUDIO! [Ex+/Ex-].
This is a top copy of Hunky Dory, one of the best I've had and I've had plenty
Please don't confuse this copy with the many others for sale, it would grace any record collection AND it plays and sound amazing
This is the most desirable version of Hunky Dory after the mega expensive and rare Laminated Cover copy
Matrix 3T/3T. Etchings "Bobil/Rasputin" - this is indicative of very earliest pressing. Yes, it has the early Titanic publishing credit - but it's those etchings that identify the very earliest copies. The earliest copies have lovely shiny labels and are pressed really heavy [so, more than one reason to go for them].
These 3T pressings are the closest to the Master recordings and you can tell because they sound sensational
I test play all my vinyl on my Project Essential deck and it plays and sounds fantastic, no sticks or jumps and most impressive of all there is very little surface noise, a few clicks here and there in the quiet parts of the album
The Vinyl is lovely and clean with a great gloss, there are a few non feel able light marks you get with vinyl but NOTHING major and nothing to affect the playback because it sounds totally superb. The first heavy deep grooved Hunky Dory issues are proper old school vinyl, they outlast and outsound all others, all day long..
The original inner lyric sheet is in outstanding condition. Very clean as well.
The album cover is also in excellent condition
Hunky Dory covers do not age well, they are 50 years old after all butt this cover is strong rigid and sturdy with perfect seams!
The cover has a bit of ring wear but as I say it's MILES better than the majority of others for sale
The Spine is very good and EASILY readable
The rear of the cover is also in great condition and is very clean mmost importantly it's still nice and white and hasn't got too discoloured and dirty like most others.
This copy has been really well cared for.
I've priced it very competitively. Look at the others available for far far more.. Are they better than mine?.. I doubt it
Sorry for the long winded description but I feel it's important to get as much detail as possible for anyone interested.
I wouldn't buy an album with a 3 line description. Maybe works for some folk. But not me.
Don't take a chance on an over described auction sale of Hunky Dory. Buy this one.. I know an excellent Hunky Dory when I see one
Thanks for looking
Record will be sent by Royal Mail signed for
In a proper sturdy record mailer
Any questions please ask..
Cheers
