DAVID McWILLIAMS -

LORD OFFALY

DAWN DNLS.3039

1st PRESS 

UK 1972

IMPOSSIBLY RARE FOLK/PROG LP!!! Rarely seen these days and totally overlooked superb album. This barely EVER comes around, so be sure not to miss out!!! David McWilliams immortalised himself by the classic tracks "The days of Pearly Spencer (1967)" and "Can I get there by Candlelight?(1968)" Any of my Dutch followers might remember the Jan van Veen late night radioshow which carried this as a theme tune.

 Ultra Rare Original 1972 UK 1st Press!!! This MASSIVELY RARE LP initially sold barely anything  and  had a very small run, it is INCREDIBLY HARD TO FIND like many Dawn titles, especially in this condition!!! An absolute classic LP from this singer/songwriter!!! An astonishing album that really DESERVES to be in EVERY serious 60's / 70's record collection!!! Don't miss out on this MEGA RARE LP!!! If you like good well-crafted music, bid now!!!

Machined matrices:  A-1  B-1

 THE VINYL COPY OF 'LORD OFFALY' IS THE FIRST-PRESS ISSUE, WITH FIRST-PRESS LABELS, FIRST-PRESS RUN-OFF GROOVE MATRIX NUMBERS, AND FIRST-PRESS CATALOGUE NUMBERS. THIS EXCELLENT RECORD IS LONG-DELETED AND HAS BECOME HIGHLY-PRIZED BY COLLECTORS OF QUALITY VINYL AND LOVERS OF FINE MUSIC. CATCH THIS IF YOU CAN - IT IS AN ABSOLUTE CORKER! THIS IS THE ORIGINAL FIRST-PRESSING. MEAN, LEAN WITHOUT AN OUNCE OF FAT! 

The absolute rarity of this album is not to be underestimated. It hardly ever surfaces nowadays. This has a lovely deep glossy sheen!! Hauntingly beautiful songcraft!!! Immense quality prog/psych folky album that ticks all the right boxes and incredibly hard to find. I have twentyfive years experience in grading. It doesn't get much better than this!!

Please, also have a look at my other prog albums on sale this week.

ELUSIVE PROGMONSTER!!!!

!!!!AN IMPOSSIBLE FIND!!!GORGEOUS !! A few hundred of the LP were ever sold!!! This is SOOOOOOOOOOO very rare!!!!!

BACK IN 1972 WHEN THIS LP WAS FIRST RELEASED, IT ONLY EVER SOLD IN ABSOLUTELY TINY AMOUNTS - AND WAS ALMOST IMMEDIATELY DELETED!!!!  AS A RESULT IT IS SERIOUSLY RARE AND INCREDIBLY HARD TO LOCATE TODAY!!!! 

!!!!A VERY HARD FIND!!! Most have been bought up by collectors!! This is hardly offered these days!!

In all my years this is only the second time I have come across this PROGMONSTER. Sensational sound quality, I have played this through in its entirety and it was a great joy!!! NO skips or jumps. NO clicks or crackle, this is really a stunning heavy glossy jet black vinyl .It has one long hairline at the start of side 2 but the audio is impeccable. Inspected under an intense lightsource and angled.

Vinyl: EX .  A sensational find!!! I have played this in FULL twice over> The replay is ASTOUNDING!!! I first played for a general listen and a second time for a more detailed observation. One longish line on the first track on side 2 which is not feelable and does not affect the audio. Only  2 other wispy hairlines can be seen under a strong lightsource. It still has its just pressed over the counter glossy sheen.

Gatefold Sleeve: EX+. A beautiful original TEXTURED gatefold sleeve with no wear whatsoever, a fully readable spine.  Impossible to find like this in nearly untouched condition. Sleeves like these are usually worse for wear being textured. This is the best example you will ever see!! The inside gatefold is perfect. A very obscure album that rarely shows up these days.

***This is a unique prime investment opportunity!!! Finding this album in any condition at all is nearly impossible!!! This is  a great and seriously collectable super album!!  You will buy into a piece of  prog core history.*** 

Labels: EX! Minor spindle traces. Please look at the pics!!

             This is a unique investment opportunity!!! The next psych album to go completely through the roof. Finding this album in any condition at all is nearly impossible so late in the day. Get this while you still can. This value of the album is only going to go one way ... up and up ... until it will be totally unavailable at all for a reasonable price.

Important : International postage will be registered and insured if over GBP 41.00.  Please wait for my invoice before paying. Postage will be according to Royal Mail rates. Postage is NOT a money spinning exercise for me.

Though there are rarely ever any problems with my items, I always try my very best to describe everything exactly!  PLEASE REMEMBER to contact me FIRST,  if you have any problems at all, before you leave feedback and star ratings, so I get a chance to turn any negative experience into a positive one!  I can always happily sort anything out for you, if you let me know you have a problem!  This way no one has to leave Negative/Neutral feedback - and we both walk away happy! Similarly with the amount of stars, anything less than a full 5 * rating is effectively detrimental to a seller's rating as lower ratings will incur higher Final Value Fees  and lower priority in the bidlists eventually making it unattractive to list items on Ebay at all. I know of at least one major previous Ebay seller who has decided not to list via Ebay again. Please do NOT bid if you cannot give me at least 1 chance to sort everything out to your FULL satisfaction in the unlikely event of a problem.  Thanks again!!

This an excellent investment opportunity!!! Any questions please ask me and I will try to answer soon.
