PROVENANCE
I purchased this album from HMV Oxford Street, and it has remained in my private collection for 23 years. I have kept the sleeve and the vinyl in near mint condition, in a SMOKE FREE, PET FREE, AND CENTRALLY HEATED environment. As a result, the outer cover has no hint of mustiness or odour whatsoever. I have played the album very occasionally and only on a high-end Linn LP12/Ittock turntable; and more recently an SME/SME Mk5. Suffice to say, the audio remains sublime.
CONTENT
This Oasis album has become a landmark recording in the history of Brit Pop and popular music, representing Oasis at the height of their creativity; a kaleidoscope of fantastic recordings, wonderful musicianship, and inspired vocals, plus the famous period cover shot in London town.
Being the original and rare ‘DAMONT’ first pressing, this LP recording will undoubtedly continue to appreciate in value.
