Description

Second UK album release by classic rock band THIN LIZZY. Phil Lynott, Eric Bell and Brian Downey released SHADES OF A BLUE ORPHANAGE on the DECCA label in 1972. Their style was more funk & hard blues, with a folk-tinged sound, a mish-mash of rock, before settling for their known heavier sound during their signing on the Vertigo label in 1974. Features CLODAGH SIMONDS (From Mellow Candle) on Harpsichord & Mellotron on various tracks.

RECORD CONDITION - EX : THIS IS A FINE COPY OF A RARE ALBUM THOUGH THERE IS ONLY ONE MINOR VISUAL/AUDIO ISSUE REGARDING THIS COPY. THROUGHOUT THE ALBUM PLAYBACK IS SUPERB, SLIGHT CRACKLE BUT DOES NOT AFFECT AUDIO PLAYBACK ON BOTH SIDES. THE ISSUE IS REGARDING A 1 TO 1 1/2 CM SCRATCH THAT RUNS FROM TACK 1 & SLIGHTLY INTO TRACK 2 (A MINUTE) ON SIDE ONE (SEE PICTURE 4). ON PLAYBACK, THERE IS A SLIGHT 'POP' SOUND WHICH DOES NOT AFFECT TRACK 1 & 2 GREATLY AND DIES AWAY AFTER THE NEEDLE HAS PASSED THE SCRATCH. THE LABEL HAS SOME MINIMAL SPINDLEWEAR BUT BOTH LABELS ARE CLEAN.

SLEEVE CONDITION - EX- : OVERALL, THE GATEFOLD SLEEVE IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION. SLIGHT "WHITE" MARKS ON FRONT. THERE ARE SIGNS OF SOME STORAGE WEAR TO CORNERS AND SLIGHT BENDS TO THE SPINE THOUGH THIS IS CLEAN, READABLE AND QUITE STABLE. ON THE BOTTOM, THERE IS A SIGHT TEAR (1CM) BUT IS HARDLY VISIBLE AND SOME STORAGE WEAR. THE BACK HAS SOME RINGWEAR, AGAIN DUE TO STORAGE OF THE RECORD, BUT NOTHING TOO SERIOUS.
