Skin Alley, To Pagham And Beyond, Orig UK CBS G/fld LP, VG+/VG+, A-1 1st Press.

Description

This is the original UK stereo press, with the rough orange CBS labels, the earliest A-1 B-1 matrices and A-2 A-1 stampers of the very first presses.

The second album by Skin Alley, was recorded from June to October and released in December 1970. The band were gigging in the UK and playing festivals, but Columbia had not released their first album in the USA and the same happened for their second album. The band were also going through changes as Thomas Crimble left during the sessions to play with Hawkwind and was replaced by Nick Graham and drummer Giles Pope left soon after its release. The album was featured by CBS on their promo albums the following year, but did not sell well and the band had moved onto Transatlantic Records by 1972.

  The Deepak matt gatefold sleeve is intact & in VG+ condition, with some light corner/edge wear and some storage rubbing and staining on the outer cover. The inner cover has some very light rubbing. The spine is intact, slightly worn and fully readable and the CBS company inner is creased & in VG condition.   The record is in visually VG+ to EX condition, with a few faint sleeve removal hairlines and few light needle scuffs & marks visible on each side, but it has a slight edge warp that does not affect play. The labels are in EX condition, clean & bright with evidence of a few couple of spindle markings on each side.   The sound reproduction is VG+ to EX, still clear & precise throughout with no definately no skips, sticks or jumps, but there is some brief low background noise during the run in grooves and the odd low pop or click in a couple of the quieter passages.
Overall, still a really great, loud & clear listen, that plays better than it looks.   The matrix nos. are; S-64140, A-1 stamper A-2, B-1 stamper A-1. This is one of the very early copies of the 1st pressing of the original 1970 UK stereo issue of this album!
