WISHBONE ASH ARGUS
GENUINE UK 1ST PRESS !!!!
NOW THERE ARE MANY LABEL VARIATIONS ON ALL THE EARLY WISHBONE ASH ALBUMS, SO YOU HAVE TO BE PRETTY CAREFUL WHAT YOU BUY. THERE ARE LOTS OF VARIATIONS ON EBAY OF THIS ALBUM AS A 1ST PRESS, BUT THE ONLY TRUE ONE IS THE ONE LISTED BELOW, ON THE BLUE, BLACK AND WHITE HEXAGON LABEL !!!
GETS EVEN BETTER AS THIS IS PRESSED OFF THE FIRST MOTHER SO THE AUDIO IS AWESOME 
THIS IS THE 3rd ALBUM OF ONE OF MY FAVOURITE BANDS, WHO WERE FORMED IN 1969 IN TORQUAY IN DEVON ENGLAND, AND THIS WAS ACTUALLY RELEASED IN APRIL 1972, ALTHOUGH IT HAS 1971 ON THE LABELS. BEAUTIFUL COVER AND THE AUDIO IS STUNNING AND PLAYS WITH OUTSTANDING CLARITY, AND CERTAINLY WILL BE VERY DIFFICULT TO FIND A BETTER PLAYING VINYL FOR THIS ALBUM, THAN THIS ONE, AND OF COURSE IT IS ANOTHER GEM FROM MY PERSONAL VINYL COLLECTION !!!!
DISCLAIMER :: ALL MY LP'S LISTED ON THIS SITE ARE ORIGINAL AND NOT FAKE OR COUNTERFEIT, AND ARE SOLD IN GOOD FAITH. THEY WERE BOUGHT ON THE DATE OF ISSUE. THANK YOU !!

THIS IS AN ORIGINAL 1972 UK 1ST PRESS   ::  7-LNMG-256-1L  ::  7-LNMG-257-1L .
PRESSED OFF THE FIRST MOTHER WITH EARLY STAMPERS :: 1 K  :: 1 M .
ON THE 1ST PRESS BLUE, BLACK AND WHITE HEXAGON LABEL :: MDKS 8006 .

COVER  ::  ORIGINAL GATEFOLD PRINTED AND MADE IN ENGLAND BY ROBERT STACE. NOW FOR SOME REASON THESE COVERS TEND TO SUFFER WITH LOTS OF WEAR, BUT THE GREAT NEWS IS THAT THIS HAS BEEN LOVED AND LOOKED AFTER, AND IS IN LOVELY SOLID CONDITION, WITH BEAUTIFUL SOLID SPINE AND EDGES, WITH NO ISSUES JUST A TINY RUB ON THE CORNERS, AND THE OPENING EDGE IS STILL SHARP. THERE IS A FAINT SURFACE RING WEAR MARK ONLY ALONG THE TOP AND BOTTOM ON THE BACK, AND NO WHERE ELSE. THERE ARE FOUR SMALL EAR SHAPED SURFACE CREASE MARKS TOWARDS THE OPENING EDGE, AND THIS IS BEING VERY PICKY !!!! THERE ARE NO ISSUES EITHER INSIDE THE GATEFOLD, AND WITH NOTHING ELSE I WOULD GRADE A WELL DESERVED :: EX/EX- . 

VINYL ::  NOTHING ON THE AUDIO, JUST CRYSTAL CLEAR AUDIO FROM START TO FINISH, AND VISUALLY JUST AS IMPRESSIVE AS THE VINYLS STILL RETAIN THAT ORIGINAL SHINE, WITH JUST SOME OF THE USUAL COSMETIC SLEEVE REMOVAL SPIDER WEB THREAD ULTRA FINE LINES AND A COUPLE OF FINE COSMETIC HAIRLINES WHICH HAVE NO AFFECT ON THE WONDERFUL AUDIO, SO WITH NOTHING ELSE, AND WITH AUDIO THAT WILL BE NEAR IMPOSSIBLE TO BETTER UNLESS YOU HAVE A MINT ONE HANGING AROUND, THEN I WOULD GRADE THE AUDIO AN OUTSTANDING :: NEAR MINT . 

LABELS ::  NICE AND CLEAN, AND SPOTLESS :: EX+ .  

ORIGINAL POLYLINED INNER ::  NO SPLITS OR WRITING, AND JUST A BIT OF CTREASING IN ONE BOTTOM CORNER AGAIN OUTSTANDING :: VG+/EX- .
