Description

I have been collecting records for decades and the time has come for some of them to find a new home. Most will be in excellent condition, some have been in my family for years and remain unplayed. I will grade them all fairly and listen to them before listing.

All of them will be professionally cleaned before being sent.

Please don’t hesitate to ask questions if you have any. Thanks very much for looking !


Up for auction here is a Uk first pressing of the 1970 second album by Mott the Hoople entitled Mad Shadows. Released in the Uk on Island records?– ILP9119. This is a first pressing on the Pink I labels . It is in excellent condition throughout and a brilliant example.


Matrix / Runout (A Side): ILPS 9119 A - 2 U and ILPS 9119 B- 2 U


The vinyl is visually in Excellent condition and has been very well looked after. There are a couple of wispy marks visible under a strong light but really this is a strong excellent example. The audio is also excellent and plays through superbly without any skips or jumps. There is some light normal background crackle but overall it was a superb listen and I would grade the audio as a strong Excellent.


The Labels are in awesome condition which shows how little this has been played . I would grade them as Excellent +.


The Original E.J Day gatefold sleeve has some very very light signs of wear but is still a very nice example. I would grade it as a strong Excellent . The spine is nice and sharp. See the pictures


Overall a very nice copy of this classic Mott The Hoople


I am happy to send worldwide. Customers who live outside the Uk and the EU please wait for an invoice before payment as postage rates are different.


USA tracked shipping is £23

Thanks for looking. Any questions please ask


All of my records will be sent well packed so they arrive as intended. Depending on the value they will be sent insured and tracked delivery.


I use Record Collector ratings to grade my vinyl. These are :

Mint: The record itself is in brand new condition with no surface marks or deterioration in sound quality. The cover and any extra items such as the lyric sheet, booklet or poster are in perfect condition.


Excellent: The record shows some signs of having been played, but there is very little lessening of sound quality. The cover and packaging might have slight wear and / or creasing.


Very Good: The record has obviously been played many times, but displays no major deterioration in sound quality, despite noticeable surface marks and the occasional light scratch. Normal wear and tear on the cover or extra items, without any major defects, is acceptable.


Good: The record has been played so much that the sound quality has noticeably deteriorated, perhaps with some distortion and mild scratches. The cover and contents suffer from folding, scuffing of edges, spine splits, discolouration etc..


Fair: The record is still just playable but has not been cared for properly and displays considerable surface noise: it may even jump. The cover and contents will be badly damaged or partly missing.


Poor: The record will not play properly due to scratches, bad surface noise etc.. The cover and contents will be badly damaged or partly missing.
