USA first mono reissue from 2000 on Experience Hendrix/Classic records I bought immediately after it was reissued (I think originally this was limited but not sure of the differences from current reissues of this vinyl), this features the old UK style Track records black & white label on the heavyweight vinyl (200 gram? I've read) (612 003). My personal 2nd favorite album of all time right behind Pink Floyd's debut. Nice liner notes from John McDermott on one side of the inner sleeve & black & white pic on the other & featured the lyrics inside the cover, which is a heavyweight cover that is very glossy almost laminated. The mono version of this classic has a lot of differences from the stereo version & never got reissued in mono on vinyl til 2000 after it's short lived 1967 version. Mastered directly from the orignal mono tapes.

AMG REVIEW: Jimi Hendrix's second album followed up his groundbreaking debut effort with a solid collection of great tunes and great interactive playing between himself, Noel Redding, Mitch Mitchell, and the recording studio itself. Wisely retaining manager Chas Chandler to produce the album and Eddie Kramer as engineer, Hendrix stretched further musically than the first album, but even more so as a songwriter. He was still quite capable of coming up with spacy rockers like "You Got Me Floating," "Up from the Skies," and "Little Miss Lover," radio-ready to follow on the commercial heels of "Foxey Lady" and "Purple Haze." But the beautiful, wistful ballads "Little Wing," "Castles Made of Sand," "One Rainy Wish," and the title track set closer show remarkable growth and depth as a tunesmith, harnessing Curtis Mayfield soul guitar to Dylanesque lyrical imagery and Fuzz Face hyperactivity to produce yet another side to his grand psychedelic musical vision. These are tempered with Jimi's most avant-garde tracks yet, "EXP" and the proto-fusion jazz blowout of "If 6 Was 9."

CONDITION: The record & cover are in near mint condition (one spindle mark on side two, I played the first 2-3 tracks once on my Linn turntable, ended up getting a mono cd version so avoided wearing this one ever) the seam hasn't been broken / creased yet so it's only partially opened up in the pics so I can keep it near mint, I put the record in a nice rice paper sleeve (original paper lined innersleeve isn't good enough for this classic).

I DO NOT ACCEPT BEST OFFER & PRICES ARE FIRM ON EVERYTHING I SELL ON EBAY.

LP SHIPPING + PACKING & VARIOUS INFO:
I use real coated cardboard LP mailers when I ship vinyl & these are very durable. I usually take the records with the inner sleeves out of the covers (unless factory sealed of course) so they don't split the seams of the cover in shipment. Then I put them in a 2 or 3 mil plastic sleeve & then wrap a plastic bag or two around them to keep them from flopping around in the mailer, this method seems to work best since it adds air & almost works like bubble wrap (keeps the LP's usually under a pound & saves a lot on shipping rates worldwide compared to using cardboard inserts), breakage rate has been way less than 1 in 1000 using this method, if I added cardboard it also would make the weight of it more prone to the corners getting dented in transit if dropped. 10" records & 12" singles count as 1 LP for shipping, single laserdiscs count as 2 LP's for shipping (& I pack 2+ records differently & I have oversized boxes for larger packages...don't worry I've been sending out stuff about 5 days a week for over 20 years now & know exactly what I'm doing over here). I also add plain white inner sleeves so custom innersleeves don't get spit in shipping also (if either company or specialty sleeves came with the record).

All records are BLACK VINYL unless noted & inserts/gatefold covers/posters/custom inner sleeves will be noted in the description if they are included plus promo & cutout marks stated if they are there also. I don't believe in hiding stuff & try to note most everything that should matter to buyers. All 12" vinyl on ebay is automatically listed as 33 1/3 rpm & 7" vinyl as 45 rpm (to save time on listing all this stuff) if you need to confirm speed on a specific item please ask & I can go check.

PAYMENT INFO/RULES:
Please contact me within 3 business days of the end of the auction to confirm you got my end of auction invoice or just pay directly through PayPal at the end of the auction. Payment is expected within 7 days after the auction ends.

SHIPPING & HANDLING RATES:
On this item are listed somewhere on this page, my detailed shipping rates are on a separate page (click on the shipping rates link) if you want to bunch up items to save shipping cost.

OTHER INFO:
I tend to run a lot of the same bands/type of music at the same time. Most cleared payments go out within 24 hours. I'm working by myself here so you are only communicating with me & not a bunch of people & I'm at my computer several times a day & rarely miss a day checking emails. So expect quality hands on service. Everything you see on auction & in my store is (physically) here with me (& no middleman shipping ever!).
Most my items I list go on auction first & then if they don't sell to my store within a few days after the auction ends (for usually more than my minimum bid so watch my auctions to get the best prices on most of the items). I try to keep 25-100 auctions going at all times there are well over 3000 items in my ebay store now. I very much welcome my foreign customers, a full 1/2 or more of all my ebay sales go overseas now so I've become quite used to dealing with overseas buyers.
