Description

I am selling off parts of my 3,000+ record collection, encompassing blues-rock, prog, psyche, folk, krautrock and hard rock, all of which are original or first pressings. The large majority of my records are all in excellent to near-mint condition, and all play without any loud pops, repeating tics or skips. All of my listings have low starting bids and reasonable 'buy-it-now' prices. My grading is strict and, unless a record is sealed, I play-grade everything on a high-end turntable.

Description:


This is a UK first pressing of 'The Biggest Thing Since Colossus' by Otis Spann and Fleetwood Mac. The vinyl looks near-mint under normal lighting. Under a bright LED light, I can see a a few superficial hairlines on the vinyl playing surfaces, but these do not affect playback. The vinyl plays with just a light touch of surface noise which is only really noticeable during the quietest track on side 2 ('Ain't Nobody's Business'), but this is not loud and never overpowers the music. Otherwise, the vinyl plays loud and clear throughout - no pops, tics or skips.


The laminated front of the cover has some laminate creases and a faint impression of the record. There is also a small area of laminate lift-in the top-right corner, near the seam. The non-laminated rear of the cover is relatively clean - just some light creasing, but no ringwear. The seams are also clean, with the spine text legible. All UK covers originally came with a gold 'Stereo' sticker on the rear, and this is still in place. Comes complete with the original poly-lined inner sleeve, which has all seams intact.


Shipping:


Note that I do ship worldwide; however, the postage cost given for international shipping is for tracked shipping for a single LP to the US. Combined shipping and shipping to other international destinations is available (and cheaper), so please wait for my invoice before making payment. Many thanks.


Please contact me should you require a quote for shipping to your destination. I do not charge for packaging, nor do I profit from shipping. All shipping costs quoted reflect the actual cost of shipping from the UK.
