ORIGINAL UK STAX (SXATS 1029) FIRST PRESSING (March 1970) OF DELANEY & BONNIE'S SOULFUL DEBUT LP "Home" - RECORDED AT STAX, MEMPHIS WITH THE HELP OF IN-HOUSE MUSICIANS BOOKER T & THE MGs AND ISAAC HAYES
THE RECORD IS IN BEAUTIFUL CONDITION (carefully played just the one time - there is only one light spindle trace on the labels and the vinyl surfaces are unmarked and shine like-new) AND IT DELIVERS SENSATIONAL, PRISTINE AUDIO THROUGHOUT (ON MY SYSTEM - AT A LOUD VOLUME!) - FANTASTIC COPY AND AS GOOD AS IT GETS - VERY HIGHLY RECOMMENDED INDEED

PRESSED ON QUALITY MID-WEIGHT VINYL WITH THE FIRST UK YELLOW STAX LABELS
FIRST PRESS MATRIX: SXATS 1029 A-2 / SXATS 1029 B-1
MOTHERS/STAMPERS: 1/M and 1/A
THE LP IS HOUSED IN THE ORIGINAL FRONT LAMINATED TRI-FLIPBACK SLEEVE "Printed and made by Garrod & Lofthouse Ltd." DATE CODED '7003' (1970, March)
COMPLETE WITH THE ORIGINAL PLAIN WHITE INNER SLEEVE WITH 'MADE IN ENGLAND' AND PATENT NUMBER PRINTED IN BLACK TEXT

Track Listing:
Side 1: It's Been A Long Time Coming / A Right Now Love / We Can Love / My Baby Specializes / Everybody Loves A Winner
Side 2: Things Get Better / Just Plain Beautiful / Hard To Say Goodbye / Pour Your Love On Me / Piece Of My Heart

LABELS: Clean, bright, fresh and unmarked labels with just one light spindle trace MINT(-)
?VINYL Visual: Both surfaces retain their original deep, glossy sheen and appear as-new, this is a beautiful pristine piece of vinyl - visually MINT
VINYL Audio: Deep, rich and strong audio reproduction on this first pressing with a crystal clear and detailed sound. On careful play at a loud volume it sounds sensational and there are no scratches, no sticks/jumps, no clicks/pops and no surface noise - the run-ins and track divisions are silent and I have no hesitation in grading this copy as MINT for audio - the playback is flawless
?SLEEVE: The G&L flipback cover is also in superb condition with a glass-like gloss to the front laminated surface with just a little rubbing showing as light record impression when angled to the light. The back is clean, fresh and unmarked with a touch of rubbing to the laminate on the top flipback (please see close-up photo) otherwise the whole sleeve is NEAR MINT with crisp, square, unworn edges and spine - where all text is clear and bold

Any items purchased after payment will be included in the next 10 period.

Thank you for your understanding and cooperation
Guarantee: I endeavour to be as accurate and honest as possible when describing the condition of any LP but of course if you feel that I am mistaken and the description is inaccurate I will offer a complete, no quibble refund (through Paypal) upon return of the item.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Due to a recent spate of bidders with no feedback not paying for records I must insist that all bidders with 0 feedback contact me first before bidding to confirm their genuine intention to buy the record otherwise their bid will be cancelled and they will be blocked. Sorry to sound so authoritarian but non payers are a real waste of not only my time but genuine eBayers
