Hi, and welcome to "psych_out!" auctions!!!

I specialize in 50's, 60's, and early 70's records of almost every genre - Psych, Prog, Psychedelic Funk, Soul, Rhythm 'n' Blues, Pop, Folk, Garage, Acid, Freakbeat, Rock, Jazz e.t.c and everything in between! I've been dealing records for years, but i'm new to the ebay game so i'd like to tell you all of my intentions. I travel all over the UK hunting out the VERY BEST records I can find. Obviously, 90%+ of the ones I can find are completely trashed from the hard living ways and the rock 'n' roll, drug and booze fuelled debauchery of all the wild parties of the times, but the golden 10%? I offer them to all of you serious record collectors out there!!!

I'm going to start by listing 20 LP's a week every Friday and Saturday, all timed to end 10 days later on Monday and Tuesday night. Hopefully after a while, i'll be able to step things up a gear or two in good time. I'll only ever offer THE BEST, MOST AMAZING, MOST IMPORTANT, VERY RAREST UK 1ST PRESS ORIGINAL RELEASE RECORDS I can ever possibly find!!! I won't insult you with later 2nd pressings unless they are of exceptional quality and rarity. I'm sure you love good music as much as me, especially when it's a 1st Press LP, direct from the master tape, as the musicians intended it to be heard (none of this "digitally remastered", weak reissued, remixed rubbish from hired hands with one eye on the mixing desk and the other on the clock! If these session men really knew how genius should sound, surely they would've been geniuses themselves?! There will only ever be one Hendrix, and that's just a tiny example).

I intend to become one of the best sellers on ebay and would like to thank all of you potential bidders for your support and taste in music!!! I strictly grade all LP's I list, visually and sonically (on a very lightweight turntable) using the UK RC standards as customer satisfaction is highly important to me, and i'll always do my very best not to let you down. Be sure to add me to your favourite sellers list and check my auctions frequently as i'll be listing some gems that you just WON'T want to miss out on!!!

I think that's everything, so let the auction commence!!!

Matrix's : Side A : WL 1074 1L v 1 420  1  1, Side B : WL 1074 2L v 1 420  1  1  1.

About : Ultra rare Original 1965 UK 1st Press!!! This MASSIVELY RARE LP sold barely anything (LP's were VERY expensive for most people back then!) and therefore had a very, very small run and is INCREDIBLY HARD TO FIND, especially in this condition!!! AN absolute classic LP, incredible music from an incredible band!!! An astonishing album that really DESERVES to be in EVERY serious 60's / 70's record collection!!! Don't miss out on this MEGA RARE LP, bid now!!!

Tracklist : Eight Days A Week, It's All Over Now, The Rise And Fall Of Flingel Bunt, We're Through, Tired Of Waiting For You, I Feel Fine, All Day And All Of The Night, When You Walk In The Room, Um Um Um Um Um Um, A Hard Day's Night, and Silhouettes. 

A really iconic mega rare 60's LP that captures the times perfectly!!! Worth it alone for the riff to "When You Walk In The Room"!!!

The LP :

Labels : Beautiful green textured 1st Press labels. Both sides are GREAT with minimal wear and NO writing whatsoever, only the usual light spindle marks!!! TRULY GREAT for a 41 year old record!!! Both must grade overall as Very Good if not better!!!  

Record - Visual : Spectacular Ultra Thick 1st Press Vinyl!!! Nice bright, clean and shiny as if it was just pressed!!! Fantastic jet black mirror like surfaces, it looks ASTONISHING with NO nasty marks, deep scuffs OR heavy scratches!!! And NO groovewear whatsoever!!! The only blemishes are the usual mild non sounding hairline scratches, and mega light, wispy sleeve traces (only visible in a certain light) from where it has sat or been removed from it's cover over the years!!! Of course, none of these ULTRA light blemishes interfere with play much AT ALL!!! FANTASTIC for a record of this age and rarity!!! Must grade overall visually as Very Good minus if not better!!!

Record - Audio : Thankfully, it plays AMAZINGLY with fantastic mono blast and clarity!!! Even better than it's visual grade!!! It really sounds incredible with NO hops, pops, distortion, sticks, or clicks!!! Only like pretty much ALL records has a HINT of low level static here and there, such as on the run in grooves and perhaps a touch between some of the tracks, and that's about it!!! The music is TRULY mostly crystal clear!!! Absolutely ESSENTIAL!!! UNHEARD OF for a record of this age and rarity!!! Must grade overall audiably as Excellent if not better!!!

Sleeve : Original front laminated cover complete with original inner!!! Very hard to find in anything approaching a good condition - most are spent, torn and worn due to age, rarity, and the lifestyles of the buyers of this particular LP!!! This one is NOT and looks PRETTY GOOD for a sleeve of this age and rarity!!! NO graffiti, NO writing, and still strong and solid after all these years!!! Just has a few of the usual age blemishes such as some creases and a little laminate lift, a small sticker tear on the middle of the top of the front, a hint of ringwear, and a bit of dulling and mild age wear to the bright white paste-on back, but that's about it!!! No seam splits whatsoever!!! Truly INCREDIBLE for this fragile sleeve!!! Must grade overall as Very Good minus if not better!!! (apologies for any light reflection in the pics)

Summary : A truly AWESOME SOUNDING copy of this ASTONISHINGLY RARE 1st Press 60's LP!!! Don't miss out!!!
