Description
Feel free to send wants lists for Iranian records / Iranian pressings, I might be able to help.
Clearing a good part of my Iranian collection. As you probably know, records from Iran are extremely rare, specially after many of those records were destroyed following the 1979 islamic revolution. More than 40 years later, not many copies have survived, and not many in good condition. The records we are going to list are seldomly offered for sale, specially in this condition: most in VG+ to EX condition, with rare Picture Sleeves that back then were usually mostly seen as a plain "wrapping" and were just thrown away.
All records have been cleaned in a professional Loricraft PRC-4 record cleaning machine -- this doesn't make miracles (ie fix scratches) but it gives you the best sonic experience by removing dust and dirt stored in the grooves for the last couple of decades.
Bear in mind that even in Near-Mint records the quality of the iranian pressings is sound-wise not Mint most of the times. This is mostly due to the quality of the vinyl used back in the day, dubious sources used for the audio production, and also the fact that they tended to squeeze quite a lot of music on every side (long songs, sometimes over 4.5 minutes, by Persian artists, or EP editions for foreign artists).
Good luck when bidding!
Artist(s): T REX
Album: ELECTRIC WARRIOR
Label/Reference: HIT / SHLP - 627
Condition COVER: This is the SILVER variant of this cover. The GOLD variant is also up for auction, see my other items. VG+, wear along the edges, and overall signs of ageing. No stickers, no writing, no stamps. SEE PICS
Condition VINYL: Vinyl would be visually leaning to a VG, has a number of light superficial marks, grading it VG+ cause it sounds really (really!) great and it's just very superficial marks. Clean labels. .
FURTHER COMMENTS: Your chance to grab both versions of this rare Persian pressing of Electric Warrior. Both the GOLD and SILVER versions up for auction. Many T Rex / Marc Bolan collectors don't even know about the existence of two different variants of this pressing...
