ATTENTION DEEP PURPLE AND 1960s PROGRESSIVE ROCK COLLECTORS!
DEEP PURPLE "SHADES OF DEEP PURPLE"
(THE BAND'S 1ST ALBUM)
AN ALBUM WHICH STILL SOUNDS EXCITING TODAY AND BEST ON VINYL!
IT CONTAINS THE MASSIVE USA HIT SINGLE"HUSH"THAT AMAZINGLY FAILED TO CHART IN BRITAIN ALONGSIDE SOME PSYCHEDELIC INFLUENCED HARD ROCK TRACKS,ALL MAKING WONDERFUL LISTENING!
GREAT POUNDING AND SWIRLING HAMMOND ORGAN!-GREAT GUITARWORK!-GREAT VOCALS!
ISSUED IN THE UK ON THE PARLOPHONE LABEL,THIS COPY IS THE ORIGINAL GERMAN ISSUE ON THE ODEON LABEL WHICH IS JUST AS HARD TO FIND!!!
GREAT THICK VINYL UNLIKE THE 1970s REPRESSES SO OFTEN CLASSED AS ORIGINALS!!
GERMAN EMI/ODEON 1 C 062-04 175 +A-1/B-1 MATRIXES-EARLIEST POSSIBLE!
SUPER CLEAN AND SHARP PRINT LABELS!
BEAUTIFUL LABEL DESIGN!!!!
HOUSED IN THE ORIGINAL LAMINATED FRONT COVER WHICH IS IN SUPER CONDITION!
THE ORIGINAL ODEON RECORDS ADVERTISING INNER IS INCLUDED WITH ALBUM COVERS BY THE BEATLES,THE LORDS AND OTHERS!
PLEASE SEE BOTH PHOTOS!
THE DISC HAS A FEW MINOR/FAINT AND SMALL"HAIRLINE"TYPE MARKS VISIBLE IN STRONG LIGHT BUT HARDLY ANY SURFACE NOISE WHATSOEVER WITH A LOVELY WARM,RICH SOUND WITH PLENTY OF BASS!
NO NASTY DISTORTION"FIZZ",HISS,NO CLICKS,NO STICKS,NO JUMPS! GREAT SOUND ALL THE WAY!
SUPER THICK AND FLAT VINYL! CLEAN LABELS!
THE COVER HAS A FEW TINY EDGE CREASES,A LITTLE MILD STAINING AT THE BACK,BUT NO WRITING,RIPS OR REPAIRS AND AN EASY TO READ SPINE.
A VERY TEMPTING AND REALISTIC £25 START!
NEAR MINT COPIES CAN EASILY FETCH £100++
MY STRICT GRADING IS BASED ON LISTENING AS WELL AS VIEWING THE DISC IN STRONG LIGHT!
A STRICTLY GRADED EXCELLENT+ CONDITION!
MANY WOULD GLADLY STATE NEAR MINT!
COULD BE A GREAT INVESTMENT ESPECIALLY IN THIS CONDITION!
MOST WERE OFTEN PLAYED ON POOR QUALITY EQUIPMENT AND A FAVOURITE FOR PARTIES TO SATISFY DIFFERENT MOODS AND OF COURSE THE EQUIPMENT USED THEN WAS OFTEN TERRIBLE!
IN 1970 THERE WERE RADIOGRAMS,HEAVY TONEARMS OR WORSE STILL PORTABLE PLAYERS THAT ENCOURAGED THE DREADED AUTOCHANGER SCUFFING ANY RECORD IN SECONDS!
THIS COPY HAS NOT HAD MUCH ACTION AND WELL CARED FOR WITH I WOULD ESTIMATE BY THE SOUND AND LACK OF DISTORTION,NO MORE THAN ABOUT A DOZEN PLAYS ON EXCELLENT EQUIPMENT!
THE TRACKS ARE AS FOLLOWS:
AND THE ADDRESS
HUSH
ONE MORE RAINY DAY(PRELUDE)
HAPPINESS
I'M SO GLAD
MANDRAKE ROOT
HELP(GREAT VERSION OF THE BEATLES CLASSIC SONG)
LOVE HELP ME
