Description
The Zombies Begin Here - Rare 1st UK pressing Mono vinyl LP - LK4679
Matrices:
Side One: ARL-6709-1A
Side Two: ARL-6710-1A
Condition :-
Sleeve :-Front laminated sleeve has minor creasing to the front laminate and edges. The rear sleeve is very clean with some rubbing but no staining or foxing- hrad to find better! Spine text remains clear and legible. There are no rips or writing. Graded at EX-.
The inner is original and free from staining. A couple of creases and one side has a 3" split. Record is now housed in a generic white polylined inner to avoid further damage.
The labels are unblemished with the unboxed decca and 'ffrr' ear logo to the right, 'Made In England, The Decca Record Co Ltd' perimeter text andK/T tax code.
The vinyl has that 'just pressed' look and plays excellent apart from the beginning of Side 2 where right at the very start of the track it jumps once on my system and has some audible clicks for the first 30 seconds. The jump is not obvious and I only noticed it when I played another version on CD! The rest of the album sounds superb with great clarity, no crackle and no groove wear. if it wasn't for the skip on side 2, this would be graded NM
Will be packaged in a sturdy mailer with the record outside of the sleeve to avoid seam splits. Sent special delivery with insurance.
