On offer here is a VERY rare LP (especially in this condition!!!!) by Pink Floyd called "Dark Side Of The Moon" and is an ORIGINAL UK 1973 'Earliest' 1st Pressing on the ULTRA RARE 1st Press 'Solid Blue Triangle' Harvest label!!!  THIS LP IS SERIOUSLY RARE AND VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND (ESPECIALLY IN THIS AMAZING CONDITION)!!!!  THIS IS THE ULTRA RARE 'EARLIEST' 1ST PRESSING ON THE ULTRA RARE 'SOLID LIGHT BLUE TRIANGLE' HARVEST LABEL - AND WAS ONLY EVER PRESSED ON THIS ULTRA RARE 'EARLIEST' 1ST PRESS LABEL FOR AN ABSOLUTELY TINY AMOUNT OF TIME!!!!  FOR SOME REASON (MOST LIKELY BECAUSE THE TEXT ON THE LABELS IS HARD TO READ) - THIS LABEL WAS CHANGED IMMEDIATELY AFTER RELEASE TO THE COMMON STANDARD 'TRANSPARENT' TRIANGLE SEEN ON ALL LATER PRESSINGS.  AS A RESULT FINDING A 100% GENIUNE 1ST PRESSING OF THIS LP ON THIS ULTRA RARE 'EARLIEST' 1ST PRESS 'SOLID LIGHT BLUE TRIANGLE' HARVEST LABEL IS VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE!!!! 

BUT WHAT MAKES THIS LP REALLY SPECIAL IS THAT IT IS IN ABSOLUTELY AMAZING CONDITION AND IS EASILY THE BEST I HAVE EVER FOUND!!!!  JUST TAKE A LOOK AT THE PICTURES!!!!  IT WILL SURELY BE A VERY VERY LONG TIME (IF EVER) BEFORE YOU SEE ANOTHER 1ST PRESSING IN THIS AMAZING CONDITION AGAIN!!!!  USUALLY THIS LP HAS PROBLEMS WITH 1 (OR MORE) OR ITS COMPONENTS - WITH PARTS MISSING, THE WRONG INNER SLEEVE, A SCRATCHED AND HEAVILY PLAYED RECORD, AND WORST OF ALL A HORRIBLE LOOKING RUBBED & RINGWORN COVER.  BUT NOT THIS ONE!!!!  THIS LP IS IN AWESOME CONDITION - WITH EVERY SINGLE PART OF THIS LP BEING IN INCREDIBLE CONDITION!!!!  THIS LP IS SERIOUSLY RARE AND SIMPLY IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND LIKE THIS!!!!

The Cat. No is SHVL 804 on the ORIGINAL 1st Press 'Solid Light Blue Triangle' Harvest label (see picture) and is a 1973 Stereo 1st Pressing (there were NO Monos)!!!!

The record labels are in SUPERB condition (see pictures) with NO writing, NO wear, and only a few VERY light spindle marks!!!!  There is even an AMAZING misprint on the Side 1 label too!!!!  As you can see in my pictures, in the 'Solid Light Blue Triangle' on this side (next to the centre hole) there is a TINY area of white!!!!  And this is clearly an AMAZING misprint at the factory where the colour didnt 'take' when the labels were made!!!!  PLEASE NOTE - this is a 100% GUARANTEED (and VERY obviously!) from manufacture and NOT from any wear (the label is completely flat at this point and there is NO label damage AT ALL!!!!  And as the previous 1 owner told me - this was EXACTLY how this LP was sold on the 'Day Of Release' in the shop back in 1973!!!!  The vinyl is in AWESOME condition!!!!  Most of these 60s/70s LPs had been to a lot of wild parties and are usually found totally worn out, and almost unplayable. This one is NOT and has NO scratches, NO hairlines, NO scufflines, and only a VERY few of the lightest paper scuffs only visible under light!!!!  ITS AS SIMPLE AS THAT!!!!  THE RECORD STILL RETAINS ALL OF ITS ORIGINAL 'JUST PRESSED' LOOK AND LOOKS AWESOME!!!!  It is also great to find that the playing of the record is as STUNNING as the visual!!!!  It plays with NO pops, NO jumps, NO sticks, and barely ANY crackle AT ALL!!!!  The sound quality is simply SUPERB with NO groovewear and NO distortion either!!!!  Even the 'Heartbeats' at the very beginning of Side 1 play AMAZINGLY - with NONE of the usual nasty loud crackles associated with this part of this LP!!!!  And there is absolutely NO surface noise either!!!!  The record must grade Excellent++++ if not better!!!!  AWESOME RECORD!!!!  Believe me this record is NOT overgraded in ANY way!!!!  I use STRICT RC grading standards - it is not in my interest not to!!!! Brillant!!!! The record also comes in its ORIGINAL 1st Press Black inner sleeve which is in STUNNING condition!!!!  THE 1ST PRESS 2 POSTERS AND 2 STICKERS ARE IN AMAZING CONDITION AND CLEARLY HAVENT EVER LEFT THE COVER!!!!  The 'Earliest' 1st Press 'Dark Blue' Gatefold STICKERED Cover is in SUPERB condition and is simply IMPOSSIBLE to find like this!!!!  It has NO edge wear (AWESOME flat & straight edges!), NO spinal wear (a PERFECT flat & straight spine!), barely ANY corner wear AT ALL (NOT through the colour), NO ringwear AT ALL, barely ANY rubbing AT ALL, only a VERY few light creases (cover is VERY flat looking indeed!), and NO writing!!!!  The opening edges are beautifully straight with NO feathering!!!! Even the unlaminated inside is in AWESOME condition with NO writing, barely ANY rubbing AT ALL, NO ringwear, NO yellowing, and NO grubbyness!!!!  The 'Sticker' on the cover front is also in 100% PERFECT condition!!!!  The cover MUST grade Excellent+ if not better and is virtually IMPOSSIBLE to find like this!!!!  SUPERB COVER!!!!  THIS LP IS SERIOUSLY RARE AND VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND LIKE THIS - SO DONT MISS OUT ON THIS AMAZING OPPORTUNITY!!!!
