Description
Hi my name is Brian and I have been buying and selling vinyl on eBay for many years now. I will always endeavour to give honest and detailed descriptions of all items I am selling without going into pages of unnessesary information and hype suggesting how 'AMAZING' and 'IMPOSSIBLE LIKE THIS' etc etc.
I will always take clear pictures and close-ups of any damage or wear worth a mention.
If for any reason you are unhappy with a purchase from me I will give a full refund including the return postage fee. As long as the item is returned as it was sent and the problem was not obvious in the listings description or pictures.
I will only post the items fully insured and recorded/signed for. Please wait for an invoice as the post and packaging cost can not be calculated until the final selling price is known.
All vinyl is very well packaged with 'cruciform' boxes stiffeners and bubble wrap. box corners will be strengthened where required.
My primary play back system is LINN LP12 Sondek with EKOS arm and AKIVA cartridge tracking at 17.5 gms.

LABEL......................TRACK
COUNTRY................UK
FORMAT..................STEREO VINYL ALBUM
CATALOGUE No......Track 2406 001
MATRIX No..............2406001 A//1 11 12

SLEEVE..................MATT FINNISH GATEFOLD WITH 2 STAPLED POCKETS. In great condition, no seam splits, no tears, no unwanted writing, no stickers and no repairs. It has some minor creasing to the front top right and some discolouration front lower part. The BLACK STAMP information is in great shape as is the information printed inside the gatefold. Very nice concidering the age of this fragile sleeve. Graded EX.
INNER SLEEVE......Standard ORIGINAL poly lined with no splits, no tears, no unwanted writing, just some age related creases. EX.
INSERTS/ POSTERS ETC...YES, they are all here, all 12 inserts including the larger poster. All are in great shape and most look like new and 1 or 2 have minor signs of light handling. Superb condition with no foxing or stains or tears or pin holes etc. EX+ and MINT.
LABELS..................Both labels are unblemished and are realy great condition with minimal spider/spindle marks. EX+, EX+
VINYL.....................Both sides are in EX+ condition and look HARDLY PLAYED, deep shiny vinyl without any scratches I can see light hair lines. The playback is superb, great soundstage, wonderful stereo imaging. No scratches, jumps or loud crackles etc. It is a well documented fact that these pressings were full of minor pressing faults which can affect play back with light hissing and static sounds in the quieter parts, and although this copy is true to form it is also the best I have heard and the minor pressing faults do NOT affect the enjoyment of this great condition piece of vinyl. I cannot stress enough how clean this vinyl looks. Because of the light spindle marks on the labels it is obvious this album had had very few plays but obviousley with the greatest of care, I feel I must give this a grade of EX. A great copy in top condition.
COMMENTS.........Very hard to come by and in great collectable/ investment quality condition. These BLACK STAMPED very 1st UK pressings are quite rare and this one is COMPLETE and in great shape.
Not MINT but a real cracker all the same.
If you have ANY questions please do not hesitate to contact me.
GOOD LUCK BIDDING, Brian.
