PINK FLOYD

'WISH YOU WERE HERE' LP 

ULTRA RARE QUADRAPHONIC VERSION

ORIGINAL UK 1st PRESSING IN EXCELLENT+ CONDITION (with postcard insert)

NO RESERVE  

1976 UK 12" album release HARVEST (Q4 SHVL 814) 33.3 rpm QUADRAPHONIC

Matrices: QHVL 814 A-3/QHVL 814 B-2  

TRACK LISTING: SIDE ONE 1. Shine On You Crazy Diamond (Part One) 2. Welcome To The Machine SIDE TWO 1. Have A Cigar 2. Wish You Were Here 3. Shine On You Crazy Diamond (Part Two) 

  CONDITION: VINYL EXCELLENT+ Clean and bright with virtually no scuffs or light scratches. Looks Near Mint, but there are some minor crackles and pops on the run-ins and run-outs, and some very light clicks between some of the tracks, noticeably between the first two tracks on Side Two. For the most part however the sound reproduction of this amazing quadraphonic mix is absolutely excellent. LABELS EXCELLENT+++ Unmarked and almost as new. INNER SLEEVE EXCELLENT+ Original Quadraphonic cut cornered cardboard picture inner sleeve. Clean with very, very slight ringwear. The record is now housed in a new polylined paper sleeve. POSTCARD VERY GOOD+ Original bright clean colours and 'pinked' edge, but has a diagonal creasemark on the righthand side. SLEEVE EXCELLENT+ The sleeve retains its shrinkwrapped black cellophane wraparound, which has been opened but is totally intact along the top edge and spine. The cellophane has split along 17.5cm of the righthand side of the bottom edge, but otherwise has no other splits or tears. The central large circular 'Pink Floyd Wish You Were Here' sticker is clean and fully intact, as is the small rectangular Quadraphonic sticker which is positioned at 10 o'clock. The cellophane is actually stickered upside down on the rear cover of the record sleeve, which shows some slight discolouration along the opened edge but is otherwise clean and uncreased.

 EVEN WITHOUT A QUADRAPHONIC SYSTEM, THE DIFFERENT MIX OF THIS CLASSIC ALBUM IS OBVIOUS. THIS IS NOT A MINT CONDITION AUDIOPHILES-ONLY COPY, BUT IT IS IN FANTASTIC CONDITION FOR THOSE OF US NOT PLANNING TO PLAY IT ON A £40,000 SYSTEM IN AN AIRTIGHT SOUND-PROOFED CELL.

A MUST FOR ALL SERIOUS FLOYD FANS.

ABOUT ME: If you haven't done business with me before my name is Andy Hibberd and I own a "bricks and mortar" secondhand record shop called 101 COLLECTORS RECORDS in Farnham, Surrey, about one hour out of central London. I deal in old and collectable vinyl, CDs, DVDs and memorabilia in all musical genres, as well as new releases and re-issues. Please feel free to get in touch if you need any further information about this item, if you have any questions about what's currently in stock, or if you have a collection for sale and need some advice.

All photographs are of the actual item offered for sale: I never use 'stock' pictures or re-use old photos of previously sold stock.

I always let my auctions run their full course, so please do not contact me asking if the item can be sold early. Live a little, enjoy the thrill of bidding.

Payment may only be made in UK £ Sterling: I accept PayPal, UK personal cheques (with bank guarantee card details), most credit/debit cards or good old-fashioned cash. On slow days feathers, beads and coloured glass baubles may also be considered...

I am always happy to receive any wants-lists, but file them carefully on little bits of paper under slightly larger bits of paper that aren't always quite where they should be. I will guarantee to find what you want within minutes of you a) finding it elsewhere, b) deciding you can live without Venezuelan Death Metal after all, or c) losing the will to live.

Despite that, all my vinyl is strictly graded using the Record Collector RRPG system, and all goods are properly protected and posted in strong, new Covers 33 packaging. Please recycle the packing cardboard if possible - it might just offset the damage done when the item was originally manufactured. Alternatively, throw it away and set fire to a couple of tyres.

If you are bidding, please read all descriptions fully and take the time to read my Postage and Packaging costs and my Returns Policy. Items selling for under £30 will be posted Royal Mail First Class in the UK, or by Airmail to destinations abroad. Items selling for £30 or above will only be posted by the Special Delivery Next Day service in the UK, which will include insurance. For similarily priced items selling to customers abroad I will only use the International Signed For service, which will also include insurance equal to the selling price. Certificates of Posting are obtained for all dispatched items without exception.

Please read my Feedback comments and look at my past sales: I am not an anonymous internet seller but a responsible and contactable UK record dealer. You can bid with confidence.
