PINK FLOYD - DARK SIDE OF THE MOON
ORIGINAL 1st UK MISPRESSING WITH THE SOLID BLUE TRIANGLE TO BOTH SIDES
A2/B2 MATRIX
COMPLETE WITH 2 "CRACK BACK" WORDED STICKERS AND 2 POSTERS, AND ALSO HAS THE STICKERED BLUEY GATEFOLD SLEEVE
IVE KEPT THIS ALBUM STACKED UPRIGHT AND IN SEPARATE POLYLINED SLEEVES SINCE I HAVE OWNED IT, THUS THE SLEEVE IS IN GREAT CONDITION.
ALTHOUGH I DO LOVE THIS ALBUM, AND FIRST LISTENED TO IT WHEN I WAS ABOUT 15 FROM MY OLD MANS RECORD COLLECTION, I HAVE INFACT 5 DIFFERENT COPIES OF THIS SAME ALBUM , THOSE BEING : 1 X PINK AUSSIE VINYL, 1 X 180g REISSUE, 1 X A2/B3 VERSION, AND 1 NORMAL PLAYING COPY, AND THIS COPY. ITS ONLY JUST DAWNED ON ME THAT I THINK ITS ABIT MAD TO HAVE THIS MANY COPIES, SO IM GOING TO SELL ALL BUT MY AUSSIE COPY AND MY 180g VERSION.
I HAVE GRADED THIS RECORD AGAINST THE WORLD REKNOWN RARE RECORD PRICE GUIDE GRADING STRUCTURE (G OO GLE THE TERM )
BOTH POSTERS AND STICKERS ARE UNUSED !
ORIGINAL 1 SIDED OPENING STICKERED BLUEY/GREEN GATEFOLD COVER IS IN : EXCELLENT CONDITION
VINYL SIDE 1 VISUALLY IS IN : VERY GOOD CONDITION (HAS SOME VERY MINOR LIGHT SURFACE MARKS YET STILL RETAINS A NICE SHEEN SO STILL VERY PRESENTABLE)
VINYL SIDE 2 VISUALLY IS IN : VERY GOOD CONDITION (HAS SOME VERY MINOR LIGHT SURFACE MARKS YET STILL RETAINS A NICE SHEEN SO STILL VERY PRESENTABLE)
VINYL SIDE 1 PLAYS IN : 95% EXCELLENT CONDITION, 5% BETWEEN VG AND VG+ (OVERALL A VERY NICE SOUNDING RESPECTABLE COPY, NOT A TOP/MINT COPY BY ANY MEANS BUT A RESPECTABLE ONE AT THAT !)
VINYL SIDE 2 PLAYS IN :EXCELLENT/FAIR CONDITION - I WILL EXPLAIN ! ( APART FROM THE FOLLOWING THIS SIDE PLAYS 98% @ THE EXCELLENT GRADE WITH VERY NICE CLARITY IN ALL QUIET SECTIONS APART FROM ON THE OPENING TRACK "MONEY", THERE ARE 2 VERY SMALL JUMPS AND TO BE EVEN MORE EXACT THE WORDS THAT ARE JUMPED ARE "GET AWAY, GET A" AND THE SECOND JUMP MISSES THE WORDS "CASH WITH BOTH HANDS". ITS BEEN LIKE THIS SINCE I HAVE OWNED IT, AND AFTER SEVERAL ATTEMPTS AT TRYING TO FIND THE MARK/MARKS THAT CAUSE THIS I GAVE UP. I SEEM TO THINK THAT IF YOU HAVE YOUR ARM POSSIBLY TRACKED AT A LOWER WEIGHT THEN YOU MAY IN ACTUAL FACT NOT EVEN PICK THESE 2 VERY MINOR JUMPS UP, REGARDLESS OF THE 2 JUMPS THAT HAPPEN SO CLOSE TO ONE ANOTHER THIS SIDE PLAYS EXTRMELY WELL )
The photo below clearly shows the difference in colour from the Bluey/Green stickered first issue (bottom) to the copy that 99% of the planet has got, that being Black! (top)
