Description
JIMI HENDRIX - 'SMASH HITS'
This NEAR MINT UK 1st MONO pressing dates from initial April 1968 release and is on the black & silver Track label: 612004
Matrix numbers: 612004 A2 & 612004 B2
Vinyl weight: 146g
It is is housed in a front laminated 'MacNeill Press' printed mono cover, complete with its original poly-lined inner-sleeve.
CONDITION
Disc
Labels: NEAR MINT
A pristine pair with no more than one or two faint spindle trails aside each unworn centre hole.
Visual: NEAR MINT
Both playing surfaces retain all of their 'as new' deep-gloss shines and are, apart from a single surface line (not a scratch), unmarked in strong daylight. Close inspection directly beneath my unforgiving halogen desk lamp reveals just a trace of inner-sleeve removal but no further blemishes or wear.
Sound Quality: NEAR MINT
This barely played copy contains all the original mono mixes, without any groove/playwear or indeed any other audible faults or wear. In fact apart from a touch of normal/light background between tracks, there is nothing to fault audibly.
Cover: EXCELLENT
Strong & clean with a superb unscratched front panel laminate. There are several light wrinkles in the laminate but little, if any corner or opening edge wear. The rear panel is clean & totally unmarked and both seams and the spine are unworn & undamaged.
Inner-sleeve: EXCELLENT +
