Description

                  JIMI  HENDRIX  " ELECTRIC  LADYLAND "  DOUBLE ALBUM  1st  UK PRESSING

                         Released in 1968 on  "TRACK RECORD"  613 008/9  stereo  VERY RARE

                                                 Condition:-  VERY GOOD  /  EXCELLENT

                    I bought this Album in 1968 the week it was released.  It was a special order from my
                    local record shop and was never allowed to be put out on display, due to the "Nude Ladies"
                    in fact my copy was inverted so that they were not visible !  It was played on a high
                    quality record deck for that era (Thorens 125 turntable, SME arm with Shure V15
                    cartridge.)  It was always cleaned with a high quality record cleaner and stored in a plastic
                    outer sleeve for protection.  I am not a record dealer, I am just selling off my own private
                    Album collection.

                                                                       THE  COVER

                    The COVER is a GATEFOLD in a VERY GOOD / EXCELLENT condition. 
                    The whole ALBUM COVER is in a HIGH GLOSS LAMINATED finish.  It is VERY CLEAN
                    and all the CORNERS are FIRM and TRUE.  Inside the GATEFOLD the Ladies are
                    BEAUTIFUL and CLEAN with a VERY HIGH GLOSS SUPERB finish.  The SPINE is FIRM
                    and TRUE with just a little area of raised laminate about 8cms long. 
                    The BACK COVER only has very faint biro writing which says " November 1968 " which
                    is over Mitch Mitchell's face.  There is also a faint mark where the price label had been
                    stuck.  Otherwise this side is BEAUTIFULLY CLEAN.  The other side with the picture of
                    JIMI HENDRIX is BEAUTIFUL and CLEAN with only one small defect of a white scuff
                    mark on the right hand side of the sleeve to JIMI'S head, as seen in my photographs with
                    a light scuff mark on the same sleeve edge. The SLEEVE OPENING has a minute scuffing
                    on the back cover.  For an ALBUM that is 40 years old !  and has been with me all this time
                    I'll be sad to let it go.

                                                          THE  VINYL  RECORD 1.   SIDE A & D

                   The VINYL is in EXCELLENT condition.  It is in a MIRROR finish and is VERY CLEAN.
                   There are no scratches.  The LABELS have one minute SPINDLE mark on each side, hard to
                   see.  The SOUND QUALITY is SUPERB, it has a BRIGHT, CLEAN and DETAILED SOUND.
                   There are just a few very light pops and crackles here and there on both sides, mainly in-
                   between the tracks.  The ALBUM played BEAUTIFULLY throughout from beginning to end
                   on the TEST PLAY which was on my REGA PLANAR 3 with ORTOFON cartridge. 

                                                         THE  VINYL  RECORD 2.   SIDE B & C

                   The VINYL is in VERY GOOD / EXCELLENT condition.  It is VERY CLEAN with  MIRROR
                   finish.  There are no scratches.  The LABELS are VERY CLEAN and there are no visible
                   SPINDLE marks. There are some fine crackles throughout the Album here and there.
                   The Album played BEAUTIFULLY throughout the TEST PLAY.  The minor faults do not
                   effect the quality of the music.  For this VERY RARE and SOUGHT AFTER double Album of
                   JIMI HENDRIX'S, and being 40 years old,  it is surely a JIMI HENDRIX  fan's  GEM.

                                                                       PEDRO'S  VINYL

                   I have been collecting Albums since 1964 and have amassed a fantastic collection of
                   rare LPs.  I recently made the traumatic decision to sell off my collection to finance other
                   ventures.  I have always been obsessive about playing my LPs on the best audio equipment
                   for that era.  My LPs have always been stored in specially made Album units to keep them
                   free from dust and heat.  Thank you for looking and good luck with your bidding, PEDRO.
