                                                    CLAVE PURPLE LABEL - ATENTION:THIS IS THE FIRST PRESSING NPS701, NOT 42701 THAT'S THE SECOND EDITION
  

  There are a couple of clues that will help every collector to definitely identify the genuine 1st pressing:

  a) When handling an original and opening the fold out cover you will clearly see the words “Cervantes/73” on bottom right portion by spine. Cervantes is just the name of the printing plant where the Clave label used to make the sleeves for most of its releases since at least late 60’s until mid 70’s. Then they began working with F.I.M.A.S.A and that’s obviously the name that appears on the 42.701 second pressing whose year of release is probably somewhere between 1977 and 1981, possibly only short time before the postdated release of the rare Psiglo II (Clave 42.705) / 1981, whose sleeve was also printed at F.I.M.A.S.A.. The first run of this second pressing was still released in a fold out cover and later on in just a single cover with same serial number. It’s possible to find white labeled copies which are by no means promotional, these white labels are just “emergency” labels that Clave launched to avoid x-tra printing costs by deleting the classic violet coloration, this never happened with the original pressing NPS 701, as this “emergency labels” modality began by mid 70’s due to the economic crisis. A last re-re pressing from late 80’s also exists, this time with soft single cover and a different label.

  b) The letters NPS placed before the serial number were common to some of the fold out covers Clave editions from late 60’s to no more than 1974,.some examples are: Stones’ “Satanic Majesties “ (Clave/London NPS 2), Ten Years After “Stonehenge” (Clave/Deram NPS 72). This NPS series was mainly dedicated to foreign acts but due to reasons I ignore this Psiglo lp was released like that, maybe because it had a fold out cover, that in fact was not a regular practice in case of local artists’ pressings.

  c) The original edition NPS 701 has NO matrix number engraved on the trail-off while second pressing reads 1056-1/1057-2

M VINYLS

Mint means perfect and nothing else

M COVERS

Simply put, a mint cover should appear to have never had a record inside it.

NM VINYLS

Virtually flawless records are not perfect. A very minor scuff and very little else can appear on the vinyl.

NM COVERS

The cover should look as close to perfect with only minor signs of wear and or age.

VG++  VINYLS

condition for vinyl will allow minor scuffs which are visible but only slightly. There may be more than a few,. The wear should be minimal and of course should play mint!

VG++  COVERS

Artwork should still be as close to perfect as can be. Some impression to the cover (minor outer ring wear) but no ink wear! Some slight creases to the corners, but not wrinkled and obtrusive to the eye.

VG+  VINYL

VG+ will show wear, surface scuffs,(or spiral scuffs that came from turn table platters or jukeboxes for 45 singles) and some very light scratches. Surface scuffs are caused from blunt (not sharp) objects

VG+ COVERS

A virtually clean cover, but may have small writing on it. The artwork should look clean with slightly more aging. The back of the cover usually gives away the age of the cover

VG  VINYLS

The Very Good Grade does not mean Very good at all. At least not in the visual sense. A Very Good (VG) record will appear well played but still have some luster. The vinyl may be faded, slightly grayish, yet appears to have been handled as carefully as it could have been helped

VG COVERS

VG covers will look worn, used. There may be some seam splitting (but not  completely separated!). There will be some ring wear, where the ink has begun to wear off. Giving the cover a look of snow falling. There may be some writing on the cover It will look aged

G VINYLS

A good record will look very well played, dull, grayish and possibly abused. However a Good record should still play. It will have distracting surface noise. Such as crackle that is continuous or some hiss

G COVERS

a Good cover will have just about everything wrong with it. It will have seam splits (possibly taped repaired, but only with scotch tape. No duct tape or masking tape repairs. these are big turn offs.

P VINYLS

It won't be playable for the most part, and so they are not much good hanging onto them. Very few poor records are collectable
