This listing is for a rare Greek first pressing of the classic 11th studio album from Pink Floyd. Featuring the hits Comfortably Numb, Run Like Hell and of course Another Brick In The Wall. This is the last album from the most familiar and successful line up of the band and is an essential part of any record collection.
This particular example is a real find for Floyd collectors being from Greece it is very hard to come by particularly in the UK. Although the sleeve is not perfect the sound is great and I am sure most collectors will have plenty of other versions to enjoy any way.
Please check out my other listings for other rarities and classics across various genres.
All of my records are play tested on a Technics SL-1200 with a Grado GF3 stylus which is quite revealing so any sound defects may be more exaggerated than on other more mainstream players. Or conversely if you are a full on audiophile I will let you judge how your set up compares and how you envisage the sound will compare.
I don't currently have access to a cleaning machine so please forgive any dust or finger marks which are on any of my records - hopefully will be investing in one at some point.
Record Appearance - VG/VG+ Disc 1 has a large but very light scratch on Side 1 which does not affect play, a few hairlines otherwise. Disc 2 is very clean very close to NM. A nice glossy finish on all 4 sides suggesting it has been looked after and machined cleaned at some point. All labels are in good condition just a few light spindle marks.
Record Audio - VG+ A very strong VG+ only minimal surface noise in between tracks, lovely sounding record. Nice sound quality, really clear mids and highs and punchy bass on the more upbeat tracks, great record to play an enjoy. I've not listened to a lot of Floyd so can't compare to other pressings but seems good to me. I have some Greek Beatles LP's and they sound great, for some reason it is a country that really took to vinyl.
Record Sleeve - VG The first issue will notice is that a previous owner has signed the front of the cover unfortunately. I suppose records were not as sought after or as expensive 40 years ago but it does add a bit of history. Obviously this style of cover it does lend itself to discolouration and ring wear of which there is some here but nothing too dramatic. I think a careful hand clean could improve the colour greatly and reduce the ring lines some what. The gatefold artwork is in good condition with no pen marks or other damage. The records come in the original picture sleeves featuring the song credits and lyrics which is a nice touch. Again there is some age related discoluration and light ring wear when held up to a light, but no tears or rips. Overall a nice piece which carries 40 years of use proudly.
All questions answered and offers considered. Thanks for looking and please follow me and check out my other listings as they appear. I work full time and have 3 children so please forgive any delay in communication but should be within 24 hours.
