WELCOME TO MY AUCTION.
I HAVE BEEN COLLECTING RECORDS SINCE 1970 BUT IT'S NOW TIME TO LIST SOME OF MY 3,000 PLUS EXTENSIVE COLLECTION AS I'M NOW RUNNING OUT OF ROOM IN THE HOUSE! THESE ARE EITHER DUPLICATE COPIES OR ONES I NO LONGER PLAY. ALL MY RECORDS ARE WELL LOOKED AFTER AND RARELY PLAYED. MOST ARE STORED IN PLASTIC OUTER COVERS TO PROTECT THE SLEEVES AND STORED IN RECORD BOXES AWAY FROM HEAT IN A SMOKE FREE HOME.
ANYWAY, HERE WE HAVE AN EARLY PRESS TOP AUDIO AND VERY DECENT SLEEVE COPY OF BOWIE'S HUNKY DORY ALBUM FROM 1971 :
DAVID BOWIE, HUNKY DORY 1971 UK EARLY PRESS VINYL LP ON RCA RECORDS SF 8244 (LSP 4623), IN EXCELLENT PLUS TOP AUDIO CONDITION WITH A VERY GOOD PLUS SLEEVE. INITIALLY CAREFULLY PLAYED JUST A FEW TIMES WHEN PURCHASED THEN STORED TILL NOW.
EARLY UK PRESS MATRIX NUMBERS AS ON THE DISCOGS WEBSITE :
SIDE 1 : APRS 5947-4E A 2 W in the run off grooves.
SIDE 2 : APRS 5948-3E A 6 A C in the run off grooves.
TRACKLISTING : PLEASE SEE THE REAR SLEEVE AND LABEL PICTURES.
VINYL : WITH A VERY NICE SHEEN. PLAYED A FEW TIMES WHEN PURCHASED, WITH JUST SOME VERY LIGHT SLEEVE REMOVALS UNDER A BRIGHT LIGHT WHICH DON'T AFFECT PLAYBACK. VISUALLY EXCELLENT CONDITION.
LABELS : I CAN'T SEE ANY SPINDLE MARKS EVIDENT ON EITHER SIDE. CAREFULLY PLAYED A FEW TIMES FROM MEMORY. NO WRITING OR STAINS. EXCELLENT PLUS CONDITION.
PLAYBACK : THIS UK EARLY PRESSING HAS A DYNAMIC LOUD CUT SOUND, I HAD TO TURN THE VOLUME DOWN. BOTH SIDES PLAY THROUGH SUPERBLY WITH HARDLY ANY CRACKLE AT ALL. NO SKIPS OR JUMPS. JUST A COUPLE OF RANDOM DUST CLICKS DURING LIFE ON MARS AND ONE IN KOOKS DURING PLAYBACK IN TOTAL (DEEP DIRT IN THE GROOVE, NO MARKS EVIDENT). OVERALL AN EXCELLENT PLUS TOP AUDIO CONDITION, SUPERB! A TOP COPY.
ROBERT STACE NON GATEFOLD SLEEVE : NOT KEPT IN A POLYTHENE OUTER SLEEVE BUT VIRTUALLY NO EDGE OR CORNER WEAR. THE SPINE IS TOTALLY CRISP AND LEGIBLE, JUST A FEW BUMPS. NO FEATHERING TO THE OPENING EDGE. NO WRITING OR TEARS. ONLY REAL ISSUE IS A STICKER RESIDUE MARK AND A TEAR NEAR THE BOWIE LETTERS WHERE IT WAS REMOVED. VERY MINIMAL RECORD IMPRESSION MARKING NEAR THE TOP EDGE.
VERY GOOD PLUS CONDITION, WOULD BE EXCELLENT BUT FOR THE STICKER MARK.
I WILL ALSO SEND THIS OUT TO THE WINNING BIDDER IN A BRAND NEW POLYTHENE OUTER SLEEVE TO PROTECT THE COVER.
SORRY, NO LYRIC/INFO INNER SLEEVE.
PLAIN PAPER INNER : NO SPLITS CAUSED BY THE RECORD'S EDGE, JUST A FEW CREASES AND SLIGHT BROWN AGE STAINING. EXCELLENT CONDITION.
OVERALL AN EXCELLENT PLUS TOP AUDIO COPY OF ONE OF BOWIES CLASSIC ALBUMS WITH A VERY GOOD PLUS SLEEVE AND EXCELLENT INNER.
I HAVE ALSO CLEANED THE RECORD IN ANTI-STATIC FLUID AND PLACED IT IN A BRAND NEW POLYLINED INNER TO PROTECT THE VINYL AND INNER SLEEVE.
ALL RECORDS ARE SENT OUT 2ND CLASS SIGNED FOR IN WELL STIFFENED MAILERS WITH THE RECORD OUTSIDE THE COVER AND INNER TO ENSURE THEY ALL ARRIVE UNDAMAGED.
I ALWAYS LEAVE POSITIVE FEEDBACK FOR THE PURCHASER ONCE I HAVE SENT OUT THE RECORD, PLEASE DO THE SAME FOR ME ONCE IT ARRIVES SAFELY AND YOU ARE HAPPY WITH YOUR PURCHASE.
I WILL ALSO SEND THE ITEM OUTSIDE THE UK VIA THE EBAY GLOBAL SHIPPING PROGRAMME, EBAY WILL INVOICE FOR THIS SERVICE.
