THIS IS A 1968 UK ORIGNAL 1ST PRESS !!!!
EXTREMELY RARE FORGOTTEN PSYCHEDELIC ROCK MONSTER ALBUM !!!!
 THIS IS WELSH PSYCH ROCK BAND 'EYES OF BLUE', FROM 'NEATH' IN WALES, WHO STARTED OUT IN 1964, THEN KNOWN AS THE MUSTANGS. THEY MADE THREE ALBUMS, AND THE ONE LISTED BELOW IS THEIR DEBUT AND FIRST ALBUM RELEASED IN SEPTEMBER 1968. THEY THEN RELEASED A SECOND ALBUM, BEFORE THEIR THIRD AND FINAL ALBUM. THIS IS ANOTHER VERY RARE ALBUM, CALLED, "BLUEBELL WOOD", BUT STRANGELY THEY DID NOT GO UNDER THE NAME OF, 'EYES OF BLUE', BUT UNDER THE NAME OF, 'BIG SLEEP' !!!! THIS VERY RARE ORIGINAL ALBUM WAS A VERY BIG DECISION TO PUT UP FOR AUCTION, BUT HERE IT IS, SO GOOD LUCK, NO RESERVE AND CRAZY LOW START PRICE, AND A VERY, VERY, VERY SAD LOSS FROM MY TREASURED PERSONAL VINYL COLLECTION !!!!

DISCLAIMER :: ALL MY LP'S LISTED ON THIS SITE ARE ORIGINAL AND NOT FAKE OR COUNTERFEIT, AND ARE SOLD IN GOOD FAITH. THEY WERE BOUGHT ON THE DATE OF ISSUE. THANK YOU !!

THIS IS AN ORIGINAL 1968 UK 1ST PRESS  ::  134 087  1Y//1  V  420  ::  134 087  2Y//1  V  420  .

ON THE 1ST PRESS BLACK MERCURY LABEL ::  20134 SMCL .

COVER ::  ORIGINAL FRONT LAMINATED 1ST PRESS, WITH LOVELY SOLID SPINE AND EDGES, WITH JUST A SMALL RUB ON THE CORNERS, AND THE OPENING EDGE IS STILL SHARP. THERE ARE SOME SMALL LAMINATE CREASE LINES AROUND THE EDGES, AND A BIT OF FAINT RING WEAR, AND THE BACK IS FREE FROM WRITING, BUT DOES HAVE SOME LIGHT AGE RELATED MARKS, AS SEEN IN THE PHOTOS, AND WITH NOTHING ELSE, I WOULD GRADE  :: VG+ . VINYL  :: THE VINYL PLAYS BEAUTIFUL WITH NO SKIPS, JUMPS, STICKS, STATIC, POPS OR CLICKS, AND ALL I HEARD WAS....
SIDE 1 :: TRACK 1 :: TWO FAINT TICKS AT THE VERY START . TRACK 2 :: PLAYS FINE WITH NOTHING TO MENTION .
TRACK 3 :: PLAYS FINE WITH NOTHING TO MENTION, WITH JUST ONE SINGLE FAINT TICK AFTER THE START . .
TRACK 4 :: PLAYS FINE WITH NOTHING TO MENTION .
TRACK 5 :: PLAYS FINE WITH NOTHING TO MENTION .
SIDE 2 :: TRACK 1 :: PLAYS FINE WITH NOTHING TO MENTION .
TRACK 2 :: PLAYS FINE WITH NOTHING TO MENTION, JUST TWO FAINT TICKS AT THE VERY END . .
TRACK 3 :: THERE ARE A FEW VERY FAINT TICKS AFTER THE START, AND A COUPLE IN THE MIDDLE, AND CERTAINLY NOTHING INTRUSIVE !!!!
TRACK 4 :: PLAYS FINE WITH NOTHING TO MENTION .
TRACK 5 :: PLAYS FINE WITH NOTHING TO MENTION .
TRACK 6 :: PLAYS FINE WITH NOTHING TO MENTION .
SO LITERALLY JUST TRACK 3 ON SIDE 2 WITH THOSE FAINT TICKS AS MENTIONED, AND ALTHOUGH FAINTLY HEARD, NOTHING NASTY, SO STILL A GREAT LISTEN !!!! 
VISUALLY, NOW UNDER BRIGHT LIGHT THERE ARE SOME COSMETIC SLEEVE REMOVAL SPIDER WEB THREAD ULTRA FINE LINES, AND SOME MEDIUM SIZED COSMETIC HAIRLINES, AND AWAY FROM BRIGHT LIGHT THE VINYL LOOKS NICE, SO JUST A VISUAL EFFECT UNDER LIGHT. NOW I AM GOING TO HAVE TO SPLIT THE AUDIO GRADE ...
ALL OF SIDE 1, AND ALL OF SIDE 2, EXCLUDING TRACK 3 ON SIDE 2, I WOULD GRADE THE AUDIO ::   EX/EX+ . BUT NEARER TO EX+ !!!!
TRACK 3 ON SIDE 2, I WOULD GRADE THE AUDIO ::  VG/VG+ . 
LABELS :: NICE AND CLEAN, WITH JUST A COUPLE OF FAINT SPINDLE LINES AT THE CENTRE SEEN UNDER BRIGHT LIGHT :: EX/EX+ .


ORIGINAL INNER :: WITH NO WRITING, OR SEAM SPLITS, AND OF COURSE THE VINYL WILL COME IN A NEW POLYLINED INNER, ALONG WITH THE ONE DESCRIBED ABOVE :: EX- .
SO THERE YOU HAVE IT, A VERY, VERY RARE UK 1ST PRESS ORIGINAL AND IT PLAYS SUPERB, JUST A FEW FAINT TICKS ON TRACK 3 AS MENTIONED, BUT HONESTLY NOTHING NASTY, SO NOTHING TO WORRY ABOUT, SO ONE ALBUM NOT TO MISS !!!! THANK YOU AS ALWAYS FOR YOUR TIME !!!!  ROSE. DUE TO WHAT IS GOING ON IN OUR CRAZY WORLD, I AM SORRY ALL PACKAGES WILL BE SENT ROYAL MAIL INTERNATIONAL TRACKED WITH A TRACKING NUMBER, WHICH IS SAFEST AND BEST WAY, SO WE CAN TRACK YOUR PACKAGE, THANK YOU !!!! 
IF SLEEVE REMOVAL AND HAIRLINES ARE MENTIONED, THEN THEY ARE TOTALLY COSMETIC AND HARMLESS, AND THESE ARE NOT SCRATCHES, AS YOU WILL KNOW SCRATCHES ARE FEELABLE AND CAUSE AUDIO PROBLEMS, SO IF THERE WERE ANY SCRATCHES, I WOULD MENTION THEM, THANK YOU !
