PINK FLOYD "ZABRISKIE POINT" RAREST 1st PRESS. SUPERB

	£		83
	$		110

HERE WE HAVE AN AMAZINGLY RARE PINK FLOYD ALBUM FROM MY PRIVATE COLLECTION OF FIRST PRESSES, BOOTLEGS AND UNUSUAL FLOYD LPs. THIS IS THE ORIGINAL UK FIRST PRESSING OF THE SOUNDTRACK TO THE FILM "ZABRISKIE POINT". SO RARE TO SEE THE GENUINE FIRST PRESS COME UP FOR SALE. THE CATALOGUE NUMBER, AS CAN BE SEEN IN MY PHOTOS, IS MGM-CS-8120. THIS IS THE REAL ARTICLE. THERE WERE MANY LATER VARIANTS, BUT THIS IS THE FIRST. I WILL GO INTO MUCH MORE DETAIL ABOUT IT, BUT THE MOST IMPORTANT FACTORS ARE THAT THIS HAS THE VERY FIRST MOTHER "1" ON BOTH SIDES. THIS HAS THE FIRST STAMPERS "G" ON BOTH SIDES. THIS HAS THE FIRST MATRICES "A1" AND "B1". THERE IS NOT AN EARLIER COPY IN EXISTENCE. THIS IS ONE OF THE FIRST 1000 OFF THE PRESS. HOW EARLY WE WILL NEVER KNOW. IT COULD BE AS EARLY AS THE VERY FIRST. ALL WE CAN TELL BY THE EVIDENCE IS THAT IT WAS IN THE FIRST 1000 EVER MADE. THIS IS A REAL PIECE OF FLOYD HISTORY.

THE ALBUM PACKAGE HAS JUST 2 NEGATIVES THAT I WOULD LIKE TO EXPLAIN. FIRSTLY, ON THE REAR OF THE COVER, THERE IS  A NAME WRITTEN IN SMALL LETTERS IN THE CENTRE AT THE BOTTOM. THIS CAN BE SEEN IN MY PHOTO. IT IS QUITE DISCREET, AND DOES NOT OFFEND TOO MUCH. SECONDLY, THERE IS A MARK ON SIDE 2 THAT CROSSES BETWEEN TRACKS 4 AND 5. THIS MARK HAS NO DEPTH, AND HAS NO DETRIMENT TO THE AUDIO QUALITY. THE TRACK LIST IS AS FOLLOWS:-

HEART BEAT, PIG MEAT  (PINK FLOYD)

BROTHER MARY  (THE KALEIDOSCOPE)

EXCERPT FROM DARK STAR  (THE GRATEFUL DEAD)

CRUMBLING LAND  (PINK FLOYD)

TENNESSEE WALTZ  (PATTI PAGE0

SUGAR BABE  (THE YOUNGBLOODS)

LOVE SCENE  (JERRY GARCIA)

I WISH I WAS A SINGLE GIRL AGAIN  (ROSCOE HOLCOMB

MICKEY'S TUNE  (THE KALEIDOSCOPE)

DANCE OF DEATH  (JOHN FAHEY)

COME IN NUMBER 51, YOUR TIME IS UP  (PINK FLOYD)

I WILL NOW GIVE SOME MORE DETAILS ON WHAT IS ON OFFER.

THE COVER:   LAMINATED WITH 3 "FLIPBACK" DESIGN. PRINTED AND MADE BY GARROD AND LOFTHOUSE. THIS WAS QUITE A FLIMSY CARD CONSTRUCTION, BUT HAS LASTED VERY WELL. THERE IS NO LIFTING TO THE LAMINATE, AND THE COLOURS ARE STILL EXCELLENT.THERE IS LIGHT FEATHERING TO THE OPEN EDGE. ASIDE FROM THE NAME WRITTEN ON, I WOULD GRADE AS EXCELLENT. ONLY HAS THE SLIGHTEST DISCOLOURATION TO THE WHITE REAR. SUPERB FOR 38 YEARS OLD.

 INNER SLEEVE:  PLAIN WHITE. STARTING TO YELLOW VERY SLIGHTLY, BUT FREE FROM CREASES AND MARKS. NO RIPS TEARS OR SPLITS. GRADED AS EXCELLENT.

LABELS AND VINYLS:  BOTH LABELS ARE LOVELY. JUST A COUPLE OF HARD TO SEE SPINDLE MARKS. GRADED AS EXCELLENT. THE VINYL ON SIDE 1 HAS A DEEP GLOSS SHEEN, WITH ONLY THE LIGHTEST OF SURFACE MARKS, AND DO NOT AFFECT SOUND AT ALL, GRADED AS EXCELLENT. THE VINYL ON SIDE 2 IS AS GOOD, BUT HAS THE MARK. GRADED AS EXCELLENT. THIS IS A HEAVYWEIGHT VINYL. A MONSTER SLAB OF VINYL IT IS! AND CERTAINLY BUILT TO LAST.

VINYL AUDIO:  CRISP, DYNAMIC AND HAS GREAT MUSICAL SEPERATION. THE MUSIC FLOWS.

PLEASE CHECK OUT MY FEEDBACK, AND BID WITH TOTAL CONFIDENCE. MY PACKING IS SUBSTANTIAL AND ROBUST. I AM SELLING WORLDWIDE, AND POSTAGE AND INSURANCE OPTIONS WILL BE OFFERED ON COMPLETION OF SALE.
