Thank you for looking, we have four very rare YES records, all early or first pressings that came from the same collection. They all look unplayed. The collection came from someone who worked in a UK recording studio. There are many acetates and oddball records that look unplayed.
This is from the personal collection of Ken Laws. He was a producer for Spark Records among others and played drums with Strawbs spin off Hudson Ford who were in Elmer Gantry's Velvet Opera before that. He was in the middle of the UK music scene for decades. Pretty much every record from this collection of UK imports look unplayed. He moved to Atlanta GA at some point and we acquired his collection. We have over 20 cool psych and rare Brit pop Acetates from this collection. There are a few spindle marks, the vinyl looks unplayed. The original cover has a couple of chips but is still VG+. The insert is unmarked and looks great as you can see in the photos
