The rarest of the London 1967 Classic UK "Black track" recordings in superb Mono!
Please note that this album is complete and original 1st UK Black Track pressing and is priced for its rarety and attraction to collectors rather than for its condition
this is a 50 year old vinyl 1st pressing!
A Very Good Condition vinyl copy,
Jimi Hendrix second album on Track released in 1967 , recorded April, May 67 in Olympic studios London , this followed "are you experienced" in the same year as Jimi was required to produce 2 albums for Track in that year, Jimi was playing and recording in London almost every day so this was no problem for the experience.
Buy this with the Mono Smash Hits copy we are selling and you get a flavour of the Jimi Hendrix output from is refered to as his "Golden period" in "Swinging London 66/67"
Record is a VGC copy no skips or jumps,
Cover is VGC plus "Made in Great Britain" at 6 oclock on the "Classic Black Track UK" mono label! as it should be on UK 1st pressing.
There are numerous lines on both sides, some scuffs and removal marks, plays way better than the vsual inspection leads you to think !
This is the original iconic Black UK Track label from 1967 nothing detracts on playback superb! it has no skips or jumps or sticks.there are some clicks and some pops in between tracks some clicks ar start of track `ESP` and `ANGEL` some static in other places nothing serious may improve with a preffesional clean. We dont do this its a personal thing.
This is not EX OR NR MINT or an Archieve copy it has been played but a great affordable buy for any collector, this Jimis second track recording from 1967 is we believe harder to find than the first record ... here it is for £200....
The original UK mono copies from 1967 are now so hard to find in this condition you can see `VGC` copies at £250+ is not unusual , here £200 is a bargain....!
Photo of Jimis Mayfair London England residence is not included , it is where some of the songs were written though!
The record Very Good Condition
This is a mono copy and sounds awesome and easily our favourite over the stereo copies.
A1 B1 matrixes with "inverted triangle" on runout very very early 1st press copy!
clean labels no writing
This is in very good condition no writing or stickers on labels, has surface lines, there are some removal marks and scufss no skips or jumps on our Rega 3.
In Very Good condition with some visible scuffs from sleeve removal and surface lines on both sides, scuffs from removal there is static at intros, bear in mind this is a 50 year old vinyl record! it has some lines and crazing to the vinyl under light which we tried to show in photos. no skips or jumps.
Nice fat pre oil crisis 60s vinyl wow !very flat on the table, test played on 2 decks wow great audio.
Plays through superb on the Rega 3
So thick and fat vinyl..very flat on then table.
See pictures in the listing you can see the surface lines on the record. nothing causing skips and it plays through without disruption clear, no skips or jumps and fully play tested on 2 decks one very light tracking Kenwood deck which normally shows any defect.
There is some static in quieter passages and intros ,the 30 second vocal track "ESP" has a static noise at intro after music starts in track 2 sounds good ...
Plays with clear sound may benefit from a professional clean (we don't do this as it's an individual thing) some static is noticeable in the quieter passages
The Cover is Very Good Condition plus
