Description
THIS IS AN EXTREMELY RARE UK FIRST PRESSING FROM 1966 OF THE STEREO RELEASE OF BLONDE ON BLONDE WITH SLEEVE CONTAINING A PHOTO OF CLAUDIA CARDINALE ON THE INSIDE WHICH WAS REMOVED ON LATER ISSUES.
COMES WITH ITS ORIGINAL INNER SLEEVES.
THE MATRIX NOS. ON THE RECORDS ARE AS FOLLOWS:-
RECORD 1
Side 1 - SDDP 66012 A1
Side 2 - SDDP 66012 B1
RECORD 2
Side 3 - SDDP 66012 C1
Side 4 - SDDP 66012 D1
I HAVE HAD THIS RECORD FROM NEW BOUGHT ON ITS INITIAL RELEASE IN THE UK AND HAVE KEPT IT STORED VERY CAREFULLY AS WITH ALL MY COLLECTION.
THE PLAYING SURFACES LOOK CLEAN AND SHINY WITH JUST A FEW SCUFF MARKS AND HAIRLINES (WHICH DON'T AFFECT PLAY) WHICH ARE ONLY NOTICEABLE UNDER A BRIGHT LIGHT. THERE IS NO WARPING OF THE RECORDS AND THE SOUND QUALITY IS EX TO EX+ WITH JUST A COUPLE OF MINOR CLICKS IN THE 3rd TRACK OF SIDE 2 AND AT THE END OF THE LAST TRACK OF SIDE 2. THE SOUND IS CLEAR AND BRIGHT THROUGHOUT WITH NO DISTORTION.
THE LABELS ARE IN A CLEAN CONDITION WITH NO MARKS APART FROM SPINDLE MARKS. THEY CONTAIN THE INCORRECT TRACK NAME "MEMPHIS BLUES AGAIN" INSTEAD OF "STUCK IN A MOBILE WITH THEE" WHICH WAS CORRECTED ON LATER PRESSINGS.
THE SLEEVE IS LAMINATED ON THE FRONT AND AS CAN BE SEEN FROM THE PHOTOS IS CLEAN AND TIDY WITH VERY MINOR WEAR. THERE ARE A COUPLE OF VERY SMALL AREAS OF CRACKING IN THE LAMINATE (ONLY REALLY NOTICEABLE UNDER A STRONG LIGHT OR DAYLIGHT) WITH NO PEELING. THE OPENING EDGES OF THE SLEEVE SHOW SOME SIGNS OF MINOR WEAR DUE TO REMOVAL AND REPLACING OF THE RECORDS. THE CORNERS OF THE SLEEVE ARE UNDAMAGED APART FROM ONE WHICH, UNDER CLOSE INSPECTION, IS VERY,VERY SLIGHTLY DAMAGED. THE SPINE HAS A CREASE DOWN THE CENTRE CAUSED BY OPENING OF THE GATEFOLD SLEEVE BUT IS COMPLETELY INTACT AS CAN BE SEEN IN THE PHOTOS.
AS CAN BE SEEN FROM THE PHOTOS THE INNER SLEEVES HAVE SOME FOLDS AND CREASES AND A COUPLE OF TEARS!
IF YOU REQUIRE ANY FURTHER INFORMATION ON ANY ASPECT OF THIS RECORD PLEASE GET IN TOUCH.
THE ITEM IS LOCATED IN THE UK BUT I WILL SHIP WORLDWIDE.
UK POSTAGE IS INCLUDED
ALL OTHER COUNTRIES PLEASE ASK ME FOR A PRICE (I WILL MAKE AN ALLOWANCE FOR THE FREE UK ELEMENT E.G. TO USA I WILL ONLY CHARGE £9.00)
