Description

This week I will be listing some more Album's from my own Cherished Collection. Most of the album's have only been lightly played and many have only been PLAYED ONCE OR TWICE AT MOST!!!

There will be some RARE and CLASSIC Rock, Prog, Psych, Pop and Folk L.P's listed, so hopefully Something for Everyone!!!

                                                           THE BEACH BOYS

                                   SURFIN' SAFARI

                                 Label: CAPITOL ~ Cat No: T 1808

                             Matrix No's: T1 1808-1N/T2 1808-1N

                                   Mothers/Stampers: 1  G - 1  R

                       On offer here is the CLASSIC BEACH BOYS Album "SURFIN' SAFARI" from 1962.

     This is the Original 1st "MONO" U.K. Pressing with the Vinyl & Cover in OUTSTANDING CONDITION!!!

This Album has become Seriously Hard To Locate and Virtually Impossible To Find In This Condition!!! It is pressed on Top Quality Heavy Vinyl on the 1st Press "Rainbow Rim" CAPITOL Label.

I use STRICT RC Grading Standards and every album I list is Visually Checked under strong light for any flaws and then Played from Start to Finish on High End Audio Equipment for the full Visual and Audio Evaluation below!!!

The Vinyl is in NEAR MINT CONDITION and has Barely Been Played!!! It retains a Beautiful High Gloss Lustre with just the very lightest of inner sleeve withdrawal marks which are only visible under strong light and in no way effect or detract from this CLASSIC L.P.!!!

This album has been carefully stored and Unplayed for over 30 years, but I played it today from start to finish prior to listing and can confirm that it really does play SUPERBLY, with Virtually NO discernible surface noise and NO heavy pops or clicks, just OUTSTANDING 1st PRESS "MONO" AUDIO!!!

The 1st Press CAPITOL "RAINBOW RIM" Labels with the "MADE BY ELECTRIC & MUSICAL INDUSTRIES, LIMITED IN GT. BRITAIN" and "SOLD IN THE U.K." text along with the "KT" tax stamp, are Virtually Unblemished, with NO grubby marks and NO spindle wear. There is a faint name written on the rainbow rim on side 2, but not too noticeable (see photo's).

The "Garrod & Lofthouse Ltd. Patents pending" Front Laminated Flip-Back Cover is in Beautiful Condition with the lamination retaining a High Glossy Shine, the rear of the cover still nice and clean with NO writing or grubby marks and Virtually NO edge wear and just a light rub to the spine (see photo's).

Comes Complete with the Original "EMITEX" Lined Inner Sleeve.

PROBABLY ONE OF THE BEST EXAMPLES YOU WILL FIND AND WORTHY OF PLACEMENT IN ANY GOOD COLLECTION!!!

I WILL BE LISTING MORE CLASSIC AND HARD TO FIND ALBUMS OVER THE NEXT FEW DAYS, SO KEEP LOOKING!!!
