Description

The Flying Burrito Bros

Burrito Deluxe

Rare Vinyl LP

Excellent Near Mint Condition

1970 A&M Records

1st U.K Press

Catalogue Number AMLS 983

On offer here is an incredibly rare (especially in such excellent condition!) genuine first U.K press of the classic album "Burrito Deluxe" by The Flying Burrito Bros. It was released on A&M records in 1970 and features the talents of Gram Parsons, Chris Hillman (byrds) and Leon Russell, and is notable for the inclusion of the classic cover of the Rolling Stones' "wild horses"

Condition

The heavyweight vinyl record grades visually as excellent condition and has no scratches, no warping and no flaws whatsoever apart from one or two VERY LIGHT 'paper scuffs' (these are very tiny surface hairline marks that come about from taking the record out of the sleeve, but do not affect play). The record plays as well as it looks, with no sticking, no pops and no hiss. There is some crackle here and there in between tracks but the music remains loud and crystal clear throughout. There are no spindle marks.

The laminated MacNeill Press Ltd sleeve is also in excellent condition with an excellent inner sleeve. The edges all remain nice and straight and unworn. There is some VERY minor wear to the opening edge (barely noticable). The spine is perfectly straight and unworn with the writing still clear and bold. There is some very minor laminate crease to the front right hand side of the sleeve and some laminate lift to the left by the spine.
