Jimi Hendrix  -  Electric Ladyland

rare UK first press vinyl 2LP released 1968 on black/silver TRACK stereo label with catalognumber 613008/9 ...

Laminated foldout cover and vinyl all in pristine NEARMINT / MINT condition !! 

THE MATRIX NUMBERS ON BOTH A SIDES ARE PARTIALLY SCRATCHED OUT BECAUSE THE ORIGINAL STAMPING WAS INCORRECT AS THEY HAD THE WRONG NUMBERS ON EACH A SIDE.  THE CORRECT DIGITS WERE ETCHED INTO THE VINYL MAKING THIS A GENUINE FIRST PRESS, AS LATER COPIES WERE CORRECTED AT THE PRESSING PLANT.

THE LABELS

THE MATT BLACK LABELS ARE IN MAGNIFICENT CONDITION. THE SILVER LOGO'S AND TYPEFACE WHICH IS OFTEN FOUND RUBBED AWAY IS IN PERFECT CONDITION ON BOTH DISCS, WITH EACH LETTER OF THE TYPEFACE PERFECTLY LEGIBLE

THERE ARE JUST VERY FEW TINY SPIDER LINES NE.AR THE SPINDLE HOLE TO SHOW THAT THE LP SET HAS HAD JUST VERY FEW PLAYS SINCE 1968.

THE VINYL

BOTH DISCS ARE IN IMMACULATE CONDITION. THE VINYLS HAVE RETAINED ALL OF THEIR ORIGINAL LUSTRE AND SHEEN. THERE ARE NO SCRATCHES, MARKS OR SIMILAR ON EITHER ALBUM, AND EVEN UNDER INTENSE ILLUMINATION THERE IS NOTHING TO SEE APART FROM A COUPLE AND I DO MEAN ONLY A COUPLE OF NEAR INVISIBLE WISPS. I PLAYGRADED THIS ALBUM ON HIGHEND EQUIPMENT (KOETSU URUSHI PICKUP) AND CAN CONFIRM PERFECT NEARMINT/MINT VINYL CONDITION - PERFECT!

THE SLEEVE

THE GATEFOLD SLEEVE USUALLY SUFFERS BADLY FROM CREASING AND RING WEAR, BUT THIS COPY IS FAR BETTER THAN MOST OUT THERE: THE SURFACE IS FLAT AND CLEAN: THERE ARE NO HEAVY CREASES, NO BENDS, NO SEAMSPLITS, DENTS OR ALIKE... INNERSLEEVES WITH SMALL WRITING OTHERWISE PERFECT - OVERALL THE GATEFOLD COVER EASILY GRADES NEARMINT..!!  

A STUNNING COPY IN SUPERB CONDITION !!
