Description
I am selling off parts of my 3,000+ record collection, encompassing prog, psyche, folk, krautrock and hard rock, all of which are original or first pressings. The large majority of my records are all in excellent to near-mint condition, and all play without any loud pops, repeating tics or skips. All of my listings have low starting bids and reasonable 'buy-it-now' prices. My grading is strict and, unless a record is sealed, I play-grade everything on a high-end turntable.
Artist/Band: Gong
Title: Camembert Electrique
Year: 1971

Description
This is the original French pressing with a beautiful, fully-laminated gatefold cover. There is some light marbling on the vinyl playing surface, caused by the vinyl reacting with the poly-lined inner sleeve. There is a light touch of surface noise inherent in this pressing, which may well have been caused by the marbling, but this is not loud, never overpowers the music, and can only really be heard during quieter moments. There is a tic that sounds 4 times partway through the first track on side 2, but it isn't clear what is causing this; otherwise, plays loud and clear throughout without any skips.
The laminated cover is in excellent condition - just a few small, laminate wrinkles along the spine, most notably on the front panel, and a bumped corner, but the seams are clean and the spine text is clear and legible.
Comes complete with two lyric sheets, which were originally designed to be folded and put together as a booklet. These have never been folded and remain in near-mint condition.
Shipping
Note that I do ship worldwide; however, the postage cost given for international shipping is for tracked shipping for a single LP to the US. Combined shipping and shipping to other international destinations is available (and cheaper), so please wait for my invoice before making payment. Many thanks.
Please contact me should you require a quote for shipping to your destination. I do not charge for packaging, nor do I profit from shipping. All shipping costs quoted reflect the actual cost of shipping from the UK.
