King Crimson Red
Island
ILPS 9308
UK 1974
Heavy Prog/Psych Delight!!!!
Probably the best Crimson set since "In the Court of the Crimson King".Firing on all cylinders again, not rehashing old territory (like the second album) this has been a true inspiration for many prog/metal bands like Voivod, Rush, Emperor etc.!!
INCREDIBLY HARD TO FIND UK ORIGINAL, IN PRISTINE MINT CONDITION
ARGUABLY THEIR FINEST ALBUM, OVERLOOKED ON RELEASE,
AND ALAS DID NOT GET THE ATTENTION IT SO RIGHTLY DESERVED.
ANNOYINGLY HARD TO GET & THIS ORIGINAL IS EXCEPTIONALLY FINE
...ITS THE CONDITION THAT COUNTS!!!
THIS COMES FROM AN UNTOUCHED COLLECTION, HOUSED IN A PVC SLEEVE,
AS PURCHASED ON DAY OF ISSUE.
I have played this twice in FULL> The replay is ASTOUNDING!!! There are not any jumps or skips. There is no background noise at all!! Very remarkable for this vinyl!!! This really blows your mind with all three on top of their game!!!! I played this on my Technics turntable with a Linn cartridge and through my very revealing B&W three way speakers!!!
Vinyl: NM!!! Incredibly NO marks and NO hairlines. Needless to say, NO jumps, NO sticks, NO skips!!!! A stunning original with "SEAN" and "PECKO" etched in the run-off grooves. Observed angled and under an intense lightsource. I have come across this album a few times but never in this astounding condition!!! This is the ultimate upgrade for this remarkable album.
Sleeve: EX+++ Absolutely stunning with hardly a trace of wear.
Labels : NM. Stunning with some vinyl debris still attached to the inner of the spindle hole, indicating that this has hardly been played.
This is a unique investment object that will only appreciate in value because of its absolute rarity. The condition of this album is paramount!!! You won't easily find this album in this supreme condition again. Most copies of this now mighty scarce album have now been safely tucked away in major collections around the world!!
This is guaranteed with a no quibble money back service should you not be entirely satisfied with the LP. Will ship to any country worldwide. International postage will be registered and insured if over GBP 40.00. In this case please wait for my adjusted invoice. All postage will be at actual Royal Mail rates. I do not use postage as a money spinning exercise.
