The Earliest copies only feature BLUE TEXT on the inside of the gatefold and the larger pictures! information tells us this text was withdrawn due to errors during the printing stage and also that the blue text did not take well on the black surface. If you look closely the blue text is out of line and a shadow of previous incorrect text have been over printed, you can just make out the original printed text which was typed out incorrectly with the track listings for each side incorrect they tried to correct this with the blue text but it never really worked, (later issues most commonly seen had white text on the inside and have none of these errors!  Very Very hard to find in this condition.

Great copy, clear audio no skips or jumps on our Rega 3, would grade as Near Excellent condition , here is a nice copy ( some light lines hairline scratches and  removal scuffs which don't affect playback) some static in quieter passages which may improve with a professional clean.

Jimi on its launch said " I made this album with Stereo in mind" so listen..

Tracks include , Electric Ladyland, Crosstown Traffic, Gipsy Eyes, Voodoo Chile (extended original version and slight return) Long Hot Summer Night...Rainyday women, Come on...
most;y recorded in Electric Lady studios in Greenwich Village New York in 68 Jimmy was living and playing there every day and the music here is some of his best work ...

as Jimi said at the time "i made this album with "stereo" in mind , "

great colors to describe the sky ...

The double album NORMALLY sells now with "Blue Text" for around £350+ in VGC only condition...

The "Ladies" cover

Super Rare in ``Excellent`` condition

Has the larger sepia photos of Noel Redding and Mitch Mitchel which only the `Ghost Blue Text` copies have 
In fact this text was withdrawn due to errors during the printing stage and also that the blue text did not take well on the black surface. If you look closely the blue text is out of line and a shadow of previous incorrect text have been over printed, you can just make out the original printed text which was typed out incorrectly with the track listings for each side incorrect they tried to correct this with the blue text but it never really worked and was swiftly withdrawn in first few weeks of issue.

Only some light laminate creasing of the sleeve, look at the laminate condition in photos, its a really nice sleeve Excellent,   no writing, names, stickers or tears, in great shape for 50 years! kept safe in its pvc sleeve for many years , its not perfect as this has been handled and is 50. gate-fold pics and inside laminate very very clean. corner rounding and a solid spine no serious issues see photos. This is in great shape for 50 years! kept safe in its pvc sleeve for many years. inner sleeve in great shape see pics folding inner spine is EX see photo.   The records Near EX Vinyls Label with  side A AND C on ONE disc NO ERROR!
Label B and C is labeled (a two record set) normal

to explain these were made for old style auto changers so you could play side A then drop side B, then then turn both over drop side C then D etc....(perish the thought!) but yes they did!

1. NOTE we see many reports of "hey Ive got a rare press A and D..." (this is normal ) 

 
Near Excellent   A1 B2 and A2 B2 "Hand Etched and corrected" 

This is very early in the run and great audio playback.

here is no writing on labels` Ex Condition labels, some light spider trails but looking good.

original inner sleeves are included in decent shape for 50 vinyls are stored in quality new pvc lined inners

EX clean labels light spindle marks , some light surface lines with some hairlines  and small removal scuffs no issues on our Rega 3 or the super fussy light tracking Kenwood deck we use to grade, some static and clicks in quiter parts but nothing to disrupt pleasure of this great recording (we have not cleaned as this is a personal thing) this is a first press in good order!

no writing stickers or names on labels.

has the new repro inners in mint shape
plus original inner sleeves which have yellowed but are still intact , amazing for 50 years


Plays close to Ex with bright clear sound and amazing bass, may benefit from a professional clean (we don't do this as it's an individual thing) some background static is noticeable in the quieter passages but nothing to disrupt playing no sticks or jumps on our Rega 3.

any questions please ask!
