Description
I have been an avid collector of vinyl for 30+ years. Now the time has come for me to depart with some items from my beloved collection in order to downsize. Please see my other items if this interests you.
This is an original RCA International vinyl pressing of the Classic 1977 David Bowie album - Heroes Tracks are as follows:
A1 Beauty and the Beast A2 Joe the Lion A3 ''Heroes'' A4 Sons of the Silent Age A5 Blackout
B1 V-2 Schneider B2 Sense of Doubt B3 Moss Garden B4 Neukoln B5 The Secret Life of Arabia
Outstanding example of an early pressing which looks and sounds superb.
A green RCA International label INTS 5066 this has the following matrix numbers:
Side 1: INST 5066 - A-3TU
Side 2: INST 5066 - B-5TU
Record is absolutely stunning, EX+ at least. There are maye a few, very difficult to spot very light, wispy surface marks which have no bearing on the sound. Labels are clean, free from writing, very little spindle wear. This has seen very little turntable time ...a damn shame given how good the album is. Inner sleeve plus plain white poly lined - EX Outer Sleeve is EX- There's some wear to top and bottom spines. Side spine still nicely readable and square though there is a little edgewear. No Splits No Ringwear Just a few hairlines around the edges.Postage quoted is based on UK Recorded Delivery
Please ask for overseas postage before bidding as there are some countries I don't post to
NOTE - I use The Record Collector grading system and will not list anything below a Very Good - for reference this is as follows:
Record Collector's Grading System
Mint: The record itself is in brand new condition with no surface marks or deterioration in sound quality. The cover and any extra items such as the lyric sheet, booklet or poster are in perfect condition.
Excellent: The record shows some signs of having been played, but there is very little lessening of sound quality. The cover and packaging might have slight wear and / or creasing.
Very Good: The record has obviously been played many times, but displays no major deterioration in sound quality, despite noticeable surface marks and the occasional light scratch. Normal wear and tear on the cover or extra items, without any major defects, is acceptable.
