Mona Bone Jakon 

THIS IS CAT STEVENS 4th ALBUM, AND LOTS OF PEOPLE SAY HIS BEST.  OF COURSE IT HAS "LADY D'ARBANVILLE" WHICH DOES HELP. THIS IS A HARD TO FIND ORIGINAL UK 1ST PRESS, WITH ALSO THE ORIGINAL HAND WRITTEN LYRIC INNER BY CAT STEVENS !! THE AUDIO HAS NO ISSUES AND IS A JOY TO LISTEN TO, AND ONE FROM MY VINYL VAULT. 

THIS IS AN ORIGINAL 1970 UK 1ST PRESS  :: AV2  ::  BV2 .

WITH 'STERLING RL & LH' IN RUN OFFS .

ON THE PINK WITH WHITE 'i' LOGO LABELS :: ILPS-9118 .

I HAVE BEEN HAVING PROBLEMS WITH VISIBILITY ON MY OTHER LISTINGS. IF YOU CAN NOT SEE ANY MORE LISTINGS, PLEASE GO ON   www.ebay.co.uk. 

THANK YOU !!!

COVER :: ORIGINAL PRINTED AND MADE BY MacNEIL PRESS Ltd., LONDON, S.E.1 :: THE SPINE AND EDGES ARE ALL SOLID WITH SOME TINY BITS OF LIGHT RUB ON THE TOP EDGE AND SPINE, AND SOME VERY LIGHT SHELF WEAR ON THE BOTTOM EDGE, AND THE OPENING EDGE IS STILL SHARP. THERE ARE SOME TINY CREASE LINES AROUND THE EDGES AND A COUPLE OF LONGER ONES IN THE BOTTOM CORNERS. THERE IS A FAINT BIT OF RING WEAR SEEN WHEN ANGLED AT LIGHT. THE BACK HAS A SMALL MARK ON THE BOTTOM IN THE MIDDLE AND A SCUFF MARK TOP LEFT CORNER, AND ALSO 'NOLLY' WRITTEN TO THE RIGHT OF CATS HEAD. ALL SOUNDS A LOT, BUT IT IS STILL A VERY SOLID COVER, AND I WOULD GRADE :: VG+ .

VINYL 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 

LABELS ::  CLEAN AND TEXTURED WITH SOME FAINT SPINDLE LINES AT THE CENTRE SEEN WHEN ANGLED AT LIGHT :: EX . 

ORIGINAL LYRIC INNER ::  WHEN I FIRST LOOKED AT IT AFTER MANY YEARS, I FORGOT THAT THIS IS A HAND WRITTEN LYRIC INNER, WRITTEN BY CAT STEVENS. I NEARLY THREW IT AWAY AS I THOUGHT SOMEONE HAD WRITTEN ALL OVER IT. SO A VERY UNIQUE INNER, WHICH HAS NO SPLITS OR WRITING. JUST A CREASE ON BOTTOM CORNER, AND A BIT OF LIGHT AGEING :: VG+ . 

BRILLIANT ALBUM THAT PLAYS WITH NO SERIOUS ISSUES. THERE IS THAT SMALL EDGE WARP, THAT HAS NO EFFECT ON THE AUDIO, AND ALSO THOSE COSMETICS, WHICH AGAIN NOTHING TO WORRY ABOUT!!!!!  THANKYOU AS ALWAYS FOR YOUR TIME.
