The Rolling Stones
'Let It Bleed' 1st Pressing Stereo SKL 5025
'Unboxed' Decca label, Stickered Sleeve, Missing Poster.
Matrix nos - Side 1 XZAL-9363-P-3W Side 2 XZAL-9364-P-3W
Sleeve - 1st press 'Stickered Sleeve' in 'Excellent' condition. Front only laminated sleeve is very clean and bright with some creases on the opening edge only, and very little feathering. Rear is in a similar condition; bright and clean, no discoloration, writing or tears. Original blue inner sleeve is similarly 'Excellent; no rips, tears or writing, usual creases in the corners but otherwise perfect.
Labels - In 'Excellent' condition. This record looks as though it has been played a few times only. First pressing 'unboxed' Decca labels show very little wear, a few 'spider marks' visible only.
Vinyl - Both visually and audibly in 'Excellent' condition. No visible hairlines the vinyl is absolutely clean with a just pressed shine. Consequently the play back is fantastic, no pops, clicks or jumps; just the very faintest crackle, between a couple of tracks, there is no 'noise' at all to be heard on the tracks themselves.
A cracking example of this great album.
I grade strictly according to the Record Collectors grading system. I don't use Excellent + or Near Mint descriptors; for me to give a 'mint' description it needs to be as new. If you are not happy in any way I will fully refund you on return of the item.
All my records are sent in professional record mailers, with cardboard stiffeners, and identified as fragile.
On request I have looked again at this album under very strong light and have noticed a few paper scuffs and a couple of very faint hairlines. These don't alter the visual grading of 'Excellent' neither do they affect the audio description which remains exactly as first described.
