PETER GREEN'S FLEETWOOD MAC - Fleetwood Mac - great UK Blue Horizon LP
These records are all from my personal collection built up over almost 50 years. Some were bought new, others pre-owned so condition will vary. Please do read and understand the detailed description which is my honest personal assessment - you can always check how good or bad that is by checking my feedback. My attempt at grading is based on the commonly used Record Collector grading system. Questions are welcome if anything is unclear. Happy bidding
Anyway, this listing is for a nice stereo copy of the 1968 Fleetwood Mac debut
Peter Green's Fleetwood Mac -
Fleetwood Mac
UK issue on Blue Horizon label
1968
Cat Number: S7-63200
Mode: Stereo
The Album:
Three of John Mayall's 'Hard Road' Bluesbreakers striking out to form a dynasty. A far cry from the later Buckingham-Nicks bolstered outfit, this is good old 'suitcase in her hand' blues produced by the brilliant Mike Vernon on his outstanding Blue Horizon label. Vintage yet timeless stuff, fronted by the great Peter Green, this is simply a cracking album.
Condition:
Cover: Single front-laminated sleeve is in typical shape with ringwear and laminate creasing to the front, and edge wear / ringwear to the unlaminated surfaces - that mainly black rear was never a great idea (same wear problem as tends to happen on 40 Blue Fingers). Spine is rubbed so not much text is visible. There's also a name on the bottom right picture..
Labels: One label is fine, one has gum residue from a couple of small stickers. A number of spindle marks but not an excess
Vinyl: Vinyl is in very nice condition with a good sheen. It has a few of the customary and expected faint paper scrapes. There is also one visible short scratch (see picture) which can just about be heard with a few muted background pops during Hellhound. That apart, the whole disc plays excellently.
A tired sleeve housing a great playing copy of this fine album - I'd guess it would grade at (cover/vinyl) VG/ VG+
Terms:
Please note that I try to test-play at least part of each record before listing, but do not have time to play fully in all cases. I just played a lot of this one, but if you do discover a problem which I might have missed, please do not hesitate to contact me and I will do all I can to rectify the situation. .
Postage: Reflecting new Royal Mail charges April 2014: Within UK, weight ranges usually allow up to three LPs to be posted for the same cost as one. For all other destinations costs are weight dependent, but incremental cost from additional LP's will normally cost less than the first. I am happy to hold records for a while if you wish to bid on more and combine shipment, but it helps if you can let me know particularly when bidding on items separated by a few days. Approximate prices for normal postage & packing -
UK £3.55 for up to 1kg (1,2 or 3 average weight LPs).
Europe £5.50 normal airmail, £10.50 signed-for. + £1.45 each additional,
Rest of world £7.80 normal airmail, £12.80 signed-for. + £2.70 each additional item
These amounts include actual Royal Mail cost for first class or air mail, plus 35p for cost of packaging material (a brand new custom mailer with stiffener). The greedy snouts in the trough at Ebay now charge sellers 10% of postage costs for which there can be no justification - I refuse to pass this shameful levy on to buyers, so you only pay post and packing.
Apologies, but owing to unreliability of some postal services, I will not ship to Italy, Russian Federation, & other former Soviet countries unless a signed for service is selected and paid for.
Losses: Royal Mail have reduced maximum compensation to £20 unless items are signed-for. Compensation on signed-for shipments is up to £50. Overseas purchasers - if your purchase is well over £20, a signed for service must be selected when paying or shipping will be at your own risk, not mine, and normal airmail will only be covered for up to £20.
Payment by Sterling cheque / money order, or via Paypal
I have decided to sell my whole vinyl collection as I know it won't be appreciated by my daughter or grandchildren, so I'm shifting it myself and hope I find good homes for it. Listed items are selected at random so there should be a decent if not particularly logical mix coming up over the next few months if you keep an eye on my other items now and in the future.
Thank you to all who have already given new homes to my precious vinyl, and may you continue to enjoy these records for years to come.
