Description

A few months back, over a couple of fun trips, I bought a huge vinyl collection from a friend who worked with me at Phantom Records (in the '90's) and who'd amassed a gigantic collection of wonderfully kept and thoroughly researched LP's, 7"s and relevant 12"s - from the classic punk era (1976-1981) was his specialty, but also records from the few years after that era, as some of those bands progressed into the mid-'80's while keeping their integrity intact (the likes of Public Image, Siouxsie, the Cure spring to mind). To give you an example of his fastidiousness, his collection includes 60 different editions of the Pistols "Never Mind The Bollocks" LP - from every conceivable country, and every edition he could uncover. Anyway, he's been particular about maintaining items in their original condition - most he bought brand new at the time...(however this may mean that some he picked up second-hand weren't exactly mint to start with - those will be obvious by the gradings below). He'd been buying records I believe from about 1975/76 right up until recently. It's a truly wonderful collection; he'd not sold any of it previously so it was complete - some of the items are super rare and some are simply very nice copies of classic records - and I felt utterly privileged to be offered it first. Mostly though, YOU get to benefit from his meticulousness.

Here then, is one of the items from his collection:

ARTIST:     BLONDIE  -
TITLE:        "BLONDIE" .
FORMAT:     …vinyl LP…
LABEL:          PRIVATE STOCK [distributed by E.M.I. (Australia) Ltd.] .
CATALOGUE #:  PS-2023  . 
DATE OF RELEASE:  1976 (on labels), 1977 (on back cover) .
PRESSED IN:    Australia .

ORIGINAL FIRST PRESSING?:    Yes, it is!...although released in December 1976 in the USA and UK, it didn't come out here until Feb. 1977, while Private Stock was still distributed by EMI here (it changed to Festival soon after this)....but this is the very first pressing...and a truly beautiful example it is!...definitely the best one I've seen since '77...

CONDITION:

COVER/VINYL: ( EX / EX )...very shiny vinyl with just a few very light 'hair-line' scuffs/marks only...they may well be simply from movement within the inner sleeve...cover is so close to mint also, which is quite amazing for its 36+ years - it's NOT a glossy cover and suffers from ringwear normally...but not this one!...

LABELS: (Side One: MINT / Side Two: MINT )...has only a couple of spindle marks on the labels and looks like its rarely been played......

If you have any concerns about the accuracy of my gradings, please check my feedback for the odd nice comment from some satisfied folk out there.... (and hopefully you may be able to join their ranks).

Thanks for considering this item...Cheers, Jules.
