 Very Rare LP (especially in this condition!!!!) by Black Sabbath called 'Paranoid' and is a 1970 MEGA rare UK 'Earliest' 1st pressing on the 1st Press Vertigo 'Large Spiral' label!!!! THIS LP IS SERIOUSLY RARE AS A GENIUNE 1ST PRESSING  AND HAS MANY IMPORTANT DIFFERENCES WHEN COMPARED TO ALL LATER PRESSINGS!!!!  FIRSTLY THIS LP HAS A 'LARGE' SPIRAL VERTIGO LOGO ON THE RECORD LABEL WITH THE WORD 'VERTIGO' PRINTED AT THE BOTTOM OF  LABEL (WHEREAS ALL LATER PRESSINGS HAVE A 'SMALLER' SPIRAL VERTIGO LOGO AND THE WORD VERTIGO PRINTED ABOVE THE CENTRE HOLE).  SECONDLY THIS LP HAS 1Y // 1 & 2Y // 1 MATRIX ENDINGS TO BOTH SIDES OF THE RECORD - WHEREAS ALL LATER PRESSINGS DO NOT. BUT MOST IMPORTANTLY THIS LP HAS DIFFERENT GROOVE SPACING ON SIDE B (THE WHITE LABEL SIDE)!!!!    IF YOU LOOK AT MY PICTURES YOU CAN CLEARLY SEE THAT THERE IS ONLY   TWO GAPS BETWEEN THE TRACKS ON THAT SIDE!!!!  NATURALLY WITH 4 TRACKS ON THIS SIDE THERE SHOULD OF COURSE BE 3 GAPS!!!!  THIS WAS OBVIOUSLY INCORRECT AND WAS QUICKLY CORRECTED - WITH MOST PRESSINGS OF THIS LP HAVING 3 GAPS ON THIS SIDE. HOWEVER ON THIS ULTRA RARE  'EARLIEST' 1ST PRESSING THERE IS ONLY 2 GAPS - AND THE TRACK 'RAT SALAD' IS PRESSED TOGETHER WITH 'FAIRIES WEAR BOOTS' WITH NO GAP BETWEEN THEM!!!! 

 IT IS INCREDIBLY HARD TO FIND A GENIUNE 'EARLIEST' 1ST PRESSING WHICH HAS ALL THE 1ST PRESSING DETAILS LISTED ABOVE!!!!  NOT ONLY THAT BUT THIS LP IS IN GREAT CONDITION AND PLAYS SUPERBLY!!!!  THIS IS THE 1970 UK 'EARLIEST' 1ST PRESSING ON THE 1ST PRESS 'LARGE' VERTIGO 'SPIRAL' LABEL, 2 GAPS ON THE B SIDE, 1Y//1 & 2Y//1 MATRIXES TO BOTH SIDES, 1ST PRESS VERTIGO INNER SLEEVE!!!   - SO DONT MISS OUT ON THIS SERIOUSLY RARE OPPORTUNITY!!!! This is the ORIGINAL UK 'Earliest' 1st pressing from 1970 and is in GREAT condition!!!! The record is pressed on thick quality vinyl. The Cat. No is 6360 011 on the ORIGINAL 1st Press 'Large' Vertigo Label (see picture) and is a UK 1970 Stereo 1st pressing!!!!

  CONDITION VINYL

RECORD LABEL The record labels are in AWESOME condition (see pictures) with NO wear, NO writing, and only a VERY few light spindle marks . VISUAL GRADING Most of these LPs had been to a lot of wild parties and are usually found totally worn out, and almost unplayable. This one is NOT  and the vinyl is in BRILLIANT condition!!!!  It has NO scratches, only a few ULTRA LIGHT hairlines only visible under EXTREME light!!!!, and only a VERY few of the lightest paper scuffs only visible under EXTREME light!!!!  SOUND QUALITY  It  plays BRILLIANT    with  NO sticking, NO jumps, NO hiss, only 2 pops  barely audible on Side A, and barely ANY crackle AT ALL!!!!  The sound quality is simply AWESOME with NO distortion and NO groovewear either!!!! The record must grade Excellent+ if not better and plays BRILLIANTLY!!!!   Believe me this record is NOT overgraded in ANY way!!!! I use  STRICT Record Collector grading standards.  

The record also comes in its ORIGINAL 1st Press 'Poly lined' Vertigo inner sleeve which is in BRILLIANT condition and most importantly UNSPLIT!!!!

CONDITION OUTER SLEEVE

The Gatefold 1st Press  Cover is in GREAT condition!!!!  The Cover has NO edgewear, only a few touch ULTRA SMALL and NO noticeable  of rubbing on bottom edge but really very light and barely visible - VERY RARE ON THESE FRAGILE GATEFOLD COVER!!!, NO split, NO tears; It has also only a ULTRA thin line mark across the spine and between the spinal text (the text is readable!!!) due at the 'open-close' gatefold cover, also gatefold cover has a light rubbing near bottom edge, only slight corner wear (NOT through the colour), and NO writing!!!! The opening edge is beautifully straight with NO feathering!!!! Even the   inside is in STUNNING condition with NO grubbyness, NO yellowing, NO writing, and NO rubbing!!!!  The cover must grade Very Good+++ if not better!!!!
