DEEP PURPLE
MACHINE HEAD
THIS IS A 1972 ORIGINAL UK 1ST PRESS !!!!
AS THERE IS NO EMI ON THE LABELS, BUT HAS, 'THE GRAMOPHONE CO LTD' !!!!
NOW AS YOU CAN SEE THIS IS DEEP PURPLE, AND THEIR 6th ALBUM, AND THEIR THIRD WITH THE MK II LINE UP, WITH, RITCHIE BLACKMORE, IAN GILLAN, ROGER GLOVER, JON LORD, AND IAN PAICE, AND ANOTHER CLASSIC DEEP PURPLE ALBUM !!!!
THIS IS DEEP PURPLE WHO WERE PART OF THE BIG FOUR IN THE LATE 60's AND 70's. THEY WERE FORMED IN LONDON IN 1968, AND THIS IS THEIR AMAZING 6th ALBUM, RELEASED ON 30th MARCH 1972, AND LIKE ALL THEIR ALBUMS, A HARD ROCK MASTERPIECE, AND SO A VERY SAD FROM MY TREASURED PERSONAL VINYL COLLECTION !!!! DISCLAIMER :: ALL MY LP'S LISTED ON THIS SITE ARE ORIGINAL AND NOT FAKE OR COUNTERFEIT, AND ARE SOLD IN GOOD FAITH. THEY WERE BOUGHT ON THE DATE OF ISSUE. THANK YOU !!
THIS IS AN ORIGINAL 1972 UK 1ST PRESS :: TPS 7504 A-1U :: TPS 7504 B-1U .
ON THE 1ST PRESS PURPLE RECORDS LABELS :: TPS 7504 .
EARLIEST LABELS, WITH, 'GRAMOPHONE CO LTD' RIM TEXT .
COVER :: ORIGINAL 1ST PRESS FRONT AND BACK LAMINATED GATEFOLD, PRINTED AND MADE BY GARROD & LOFTHOUSE Ltd, WITH LOVELY SOLID SPINE AND EDGES WITH JUST A SMALL RUB ON THE CORNERS. THERE IS NO LAMINATE LIFT JUST SOME TINY LAMINATE CREASE LINES AROUND THE EDGES. INSIDE THE GATEFOLD NICE AND CLEAN, BUT THERE IS A NAME WRITTEN VERY SMALL IN THE WHITE BOX IN THE BOTTOM RIGHT CORNER. THERE IS ALSO A TINY BLACK MARK ON THE FRONT AS SEEN IN THE PHOTO, AND WITH NOTHING ELSE, AND I WOULD GRADE :: EX- .
VINYL :: THE VINYL PLAYS NEAR FAULTLESS, AND BEING A FIRST PRESS IT SOUNDS FANTASTIC, WITH CRYSTAL CLEAR CLARITY, SO WILL ONLY BE BEATEN ON THE AUDIO, IF YOU HAVE A MINT UNPLAYED COPY.
THERE ARE JUST TWO VERY FAINT TICKS AT THE VERY START OF THE LAST TRACK ON SIDE 2, AND THAT'S ALL !!!!
VISUALLY AWAY FROM BRIGHT LIGHT THE VINYL LOOKS VERY NICE, AND UNDER BRIGHT LIGHT THERE ARE SOME FAINT COSMETIC SLEEVE REMOVAL SPIDER WEB THREAD ULTRA FINE LINES, A COUPLE OF SMALL COSMETIC HAIRLINES, WITH A LONG COSMETIC HAIRLINE ON SIDE 2, AND HONESTLY NOTHING TO WORRY ABOUT, JUST A VISUAL THING UNDER BRIGHT LIGHT, AND IN NO WAY AN AUDIO EFFECT, SO WITH NOTHING ELSE, I WOULD GRADE THE AUDIO, A SUPERB :: EX+/NEAR MINT .
LABELS :: NICE AND CLEAN, JUST A FEW VERY FAINT SPINDLE LINES AT THE CENTRE SEEN WHEN ANGLED UNDER BRIGHT LIGHT, AND A NAME WRITTEN ON ONE LABEL, SO WITH THIS IN MIND I WILL HAVE TO GRADE :: EX- .
ORIGINAL LYRIC FOLD OUT LYRIC INSERT :: NO WRITING, JUST TWO TINY SEAM SPLITS ON THE RIGHT SIDE ON THE TWO FOLDING CREASE LINES :: EX- .
ORIGINAL INNER :: NO WRITING, OR SEAM SPLITS, JUST A TINY TEAR ON ONE SIDE ON THE OPENING EDGE, AND SOME AGEING :: VG .
