The Who : "Who's Next" LP
First US pressing (1971)
Decca DL 79182
Both wax and jacket are essentially flawless, like new. (See details below.)
I have stored this gem in a plastic sleeve every day of its life since I purchased it in 1971.
Wax stored in a professional poly inner sleeve.
This iconic Who release was their last on the Decca label.
Features all original compositions, including "Baba O'Riley", "Love Ain't For Keeping'", "Behind Blue Eyes" and, of course, their classic anthem "Won't Get Fooled Again".
Stunning sound quality on this brilliantly recorded album.
Master engineer for "Who's Next" was the legendary Doug Sax, who sadly passed in 2015.
Pressed at the highly regarded Pinckneyville (IL) plant, owned at the time by MCA.
Matrix numbers hand etched in the dead wax read:
Side 1: MG7-12888-W1-2
Side 2: MG7-12889-W1-2
Vinyl: Looks and plays LIKE NEW
Spectacularly clean wax !!! Exceptionally high gloss.
Superb sound on this well recorded album.
Labels are essentially flawless, look like new. (SEE PHOTOS)
Jacket: Near Mint (Just A Wee Bit Shy Of Like New)
Jacket is essentially flawless, looks "like new", with one tiny exception: a very small rectangularly shaped defect (2 mm x 3/4 mm) is seen in the top right corner of the jacket front.
Seams and spine are "like new". (SEE PHOTOS)
Here offered is a pristine original 1971 US Decca pressing of the iconic "Who's Next" LP, with fantastic sonics. It is hard for me to believe that you can find a finer copy of this rare gem that is not sealed. Hoping this wonderful collectible goes to a good home.
My Profile / Policies:
Note: I've qualified for the "Top Rated Plus" seal from eBay, awarded to sellers who consistently deliver outstanding customer service.
Music is my passion. I’ve been a collector for more than 50 years and have thousands of records in my personal collection, focused largely on 50’s and 60’s rock ‘n’ roll. Recently retired, I look to downsize and sell select portions of my collection in hopes of financing future purchases of a few special pieces.
All records I offer are from my personal collection, each cleaned using my Nitty Gritty Record Cleaning Machine.
All are play graded (not just visually graded), employing Goldmine Price Guide standards.
As I take great care to accurately describe my items, I do not accept returns unless my item description is incorrect.
All records are packaged with the wax outside the jacket (to avoid seam split in transit), enclosed in a plastic sleeve and shipped in robust record mailer boxes via USPS Media Mail, tracking included.
International customers pay shipping costs and duties per the eBay Global Shipping Program guidelines.
Payment expected within 3 business days of auction closing.
