The Rolling Stones
LET IT BLEED
SKL 5025 Open Decca label format
STEREO 1969 Original 1st UK pressing
The open Decca Stereo releases are extremely difficult to locate these days. One can track down the mono and boxed stereo album releases but this particular issue appears to be very elusive indeed.
It was issued in mid 1969, two months before Decca changed its label format to a boxed logo. The unboxed Stereo albums were produced in extremely low numbers and are very hard to find especially in this condition .They were subjected to a seriously limited number release.
This was the Stones last album of the sixties and was released just after Brian Jones death. It is a phenomenal album with an infusion of R&B and rock & roll. And does it work well !
Poster
Exclusive stereo poster with strong colours. Hardly seen the light of day . Near MINT condition .
Album sleeve
Laminated front face with a high glossy sheen. Sticker removed and a residue left in its place!
Earliest issue with clipped spine, clearly showing title . Upton Printing Group with peep hole in reverse . Later issues do not have this aperture. No discoloration on reverse face and grades excellent. Minimal feathering to opening edge . Corners lightly scuffed. Vivid strong coloration on front face, better than most ! Ultra clean with a fresh feel .
Blue original 1st issue inner sleeve. NO seam splits and in excellent++ condition. Beautiful exhibit without the blacked out Choir credit seen on later reissues. Hardly any creasing . NO rips/tears.
Vinyl
Thick quality pressing and a heavyweight feel with surfaces showing some hairlines/light marks/one feelable scratch 2cms and visual is very good++/ex- as these marks appear to disappear beneath its deep gloss. Sheen is very distinctive , a highly reflective sheen and is a pleasure to view. Matrices P-3W /4W .Gorgeous!
Audio Vg/Ex
Just recently upgraded to a Project turntable and wow, this audio is out of this world. Absolutely Fantastic!!! Occasional surface noise but heard oh so distant ! Dynamic range of sound from the stereo perspective . Tones are delivered extremely well. For just one moment there are some very light ticks and a couple of pops but that is that …can find little to fault. Some static /crackle may be heard very occasionally ,mainly between tracks but does not interfere with the musical presentation in any way. Absolutely brilliant audio channels and very rare to locate in this condition . For the most part, an excellent aural delivery and dips occasionally in some parts to a very good!! Engineered to the highest quality.
A superb example of this HUGE rock classic and becoming harder to locate as each day passes .
