FIRSTLY THIS LP HAS A//1 B//1 MATRIX ENDINGS!!!!  AND THIS IS SERIOUSLY RARE ON THIS LP!!!!  THESE A//1 B//1 MONO MATRIX ENDINGS WERE DROPPED ALMOST IMMEDIATELY AFTER RELEASE AND ALL LATER PRESSINGS SIMPLY DONT HAVE THESE (THEY HAVE A2/B1 MATRIX ENDINGS OR HIGHER)!!!!  SECONDLY THIS LP HAS MUCH HEAVIER VINYL THAN ALL LATER PRESSINGS - AND HAS ULTRA RARE FULLY TEXTURED LABELS TO BOTH SIDES!!!!  THESE 'TEXTURED' LABELS WERE DROPPED IMMEDIATELY AFTER THE 1ST PRESSING RUN BEGAN - AND ONLY THE 'EARLIEST POSSIBLE' 1ST PRESSING BATCH EVER HAD THEM (ALL LATER ONES DID NOT)!!!!  THIRDLY THIS LP HAS ULTRA RARE 'MISCREDITED' LABELS WHICH WERE ALMOST IMMEDIATELY CORRECTED!!!!  IF YOU LOOK AT THE PICTURE OF THE SIDE 2 LABEL - YOU CAN SEE THAT THE FOURTH CREDIT AT THE BOTTOM OF THE LABEL IS MISCREDITED TO 'M.C.P.S.' - WHEREAS ON ALL LATER PRESSINGS THIS CREDIT WAS CORRECTED TO 'ESSEX MUSIC'!!!!  NOT ONLY THAT BUT THE CENTRE OF EACH LABEL ON THIS 'EARLIEST' 1ST PRESSING HAS 2 'RIDGES' AROUND THE CENTRE HOLE - WHEREAS ALL LATER PRESSINGS ONLY HAVE ONE!!!!   BUT WHAT SHOWS THIS LP TO BE QUITE LITERALLY THE 'EARLIEST' 1ST PRESS EVER MADE - IS THAT IT HAS '1111' STAMPER CODINGS TO BOTH SIDES - AND THIS IS SIMPLY IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND ON THIS LP!!!!  ONLY THE 'EARLIEST POSSIBLE' 1966 MONO 1ST PRESSINGS OF THIS LP HAVE 1/1 MATRIX ENDINGS, 1111 STAMPER CODES TO BOTH SIDES, 2 'RIDGES' AROUND THE CENTRE HOLE, FULLY TEXTURED LABELS, AND MEGA RARE 'MISCREDITED' LABELS - AND ARE SERIOUSLY RARE AND IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND!!!!  

NOT ONLY THAT BUT THIS LP IS IN BRILLIANT CONDITION AND PLAYS SUPERBLY!!!!  IT IS ALSO WORTH NOTING THAT THIS ULTRA RARE 'EARLIEST POSSIBLE' 1ST PRESSING WITH MUCH HEAVIER VINYL HAS FAR FAR BETTER SOUND THAN ALL LATER PRESSINGS AND SOUNDS INCREDIBLE!!!!  THIS IS THE ORIGINAL 1966 UK 'EARLIEST POSSIBLE' MONO 1ST PRESSING ON THE 'EARLIEST' 1ST PRESS 'MISCREDITED' MONO 'TEXTURED' REACTION LABELS, 'EARLIEST' 1ST PRESS 1/1 MATRIX ENDINGS, 'EARLIEST POSSIBLE' 1111 STAMPER CODINGS, 1ST PRESS INNER SLEEVE, AND 1ST PRESS LAMINATED 'PATENT PENDING' E.J.DAY MONO COVER!!!!  THIS LP IS SERIOUSLY RARE AND VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND LIKE THIS - SO DONT MISS OUT ON THIS AMAZING OPPORTUNITY!!!!  This is an ORIGINAL UK Reaction 'Earliest' MONO 1st Pressing from 1966 and is in BRILLIANT condition!!!! The record is pressed on MEGA THICK quality vinyl (MUCH thicker vinyl than ANY later pressing). The Cat. No is 593 001 on the ORIGINAL 1st Press Blue Reaction Labels (see picture) and is a UK MONO 1st pressing!!!! All the tracks are pure quality Cream at their best!!!! Any fan of Cream, or 60s music in general, will want to have this in their collection!!!!

The ULTRA RARE 'Textured' record labels are in BRILLIANT condition (see pictures) with barely ANY wear AT ALL, NO writing, and only a few light spindle marks!!!!  There is also a Record Shop Sticker on one label - which I have examined in EVERY way possible and I am 100% certain that this is NOT covering ANYTHING - and has clearly been there since new!!!!  No doubt it is easily removeable - but considering it has been there since the record was bought back in 1966 (and certainly is NOT a detraction in ANY way AT ALL) - I personally think this is part of the records history and really dont see the point in this.  One label is also very VERY slightly 'faded' but again this really is as MINOR as it gets - but this record really does have a BRILLIANT set of labels!!!!  The vinyl is in SUPERB condition!!!! Most of these 60s LPs had been to a lot of wild parties and are usually found totally worn out, and almost unplayable. This one is NOT and has NO scratches, NO hairlines, only 2 or 3 ULTRA light NON sounding wispy scufflines (only visible under EXTREME light), and only a VERY few of the lightest paper scuffs only visible under light!!!!  ITS AS SIMPLE AS THAT!!!!  THE RECORD STILL RETAINS ITS ORIGINAL 'JUST PRESSED' LOOK!!!!  It is great to find that the record plays as STUNNINGLY as the visual with NO pops, NO sticking, NO jumps, NO hiss and barely ANY crackle AT ALL!!!!  The record plays with AWESOME sound quality with NO groovewear and NO distortion either!!!!  The record must grade FULL Excellent!!!!  Believe me this record is NOT overgraded in ANY way!!!! I use STRICT RC grading standards - it is not in my interest not to!!!! Brillant!!!! The record also comes in its ORIGINAL 1st Press inner sleeve!!!!  The 1st Press MONO E.J.Day 'Patents Pending' Laminated Cover is in BRILLIANT condition and is INCREDIBLY hard to find like this!!!!  The cover has NO edge wear, SUPERB shiny laminate (ULTRA rare on this cover!), only very VERY light spinal wear (only VERY light and even - with NO nasty deep fluffy wear AT ALL), only VERY slight corner wear (NOT through the colour), only a few VERY light creases (cover is VERY flat looking), and NO writing!!!! The opening edge is beautifully straight with NO feathering!!!! Even the unlaminated back is in STUNNING condition with NO writing, barely ANY grubbyness AT ALL (MEGA rare on this cover), NO rubbing AT ALL, NO ringwear, and barely ANY yellowing AT ALL!!!!  The cover must grade Very Good++++ if not better!!!!  THIS LP IS SERIOUSLY RARE AND SIMPLY IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND LIKE THIS - DONT MISS OUT ON THIS INCREDIBLE OPPORTUNITY!!!!

HAVE A LOOK AT MY PICTURES - I DO MY BEST TO SHOW THE RECORD FROM ALL ANGLES AND MAKE THE PICTURES AS CLEAR AS POSSIBLE - THERE IS NOTHING TO HIDE!!!! It really is a GREAT looking LP and it is truly rare to find any copies of this MEGA RARE LP!!!!
