Description

ELTON JOHN - Goodbye Yellow Brick Road - South African Pressing (1973)

Cat # : DJC 3022
Label : DJM Records
Pressing : South Africa

This pressing is a genuinely sought after collectors item. (Online research will confirm this)

There are 3 errors on this album : (Please see photo's for confirmation)

Track A1 'Funeral For A Friend / Love Lies Bleeding' - each has separate credits although they are on one track.
Track A3 is spelt on sleeve as 'Bennie And The Jets', and on the records labels as 'Benny And The Jets'.
Track B4 is spelt on the sleeve as 'Jamaica Jerk-Off', and on the records labels as 'Jamaica Jerk Off'.

  • Matrix / Runout (Side A Label): DJC 3022A
  • Matrix / Runout (Side B Label): DJC 3022B-1
The album is in excellent condition. The record itself plays through with no surface noise and certainly no sticking or skipping. The lamination on the front of the sleeve is still perfectly intact and the flip back's on the reverse have damage. The spine is in excellent condition. The inner tri-fold, fold out (to poster size) coloured, illustrated lyrics sheet is present in VG++ condition. Overall this entire album has been very well looked after and would be a fine addition to a record collection.


 POSTAGE INSTRUCTIONS

I prefer not to send Vinyl via surface mail using the South African Postal Service as it can take up to 6 months to arrive at it's destination. I prefer to use Courier or Airmail services - the choice lies with the buyer though.

1. DHL - This is the safer & faster option although it is more expensive than the normal postal services option via SAPO or Global Mail. It is my default postage option.

2. SAPO - This is the South African Post Office via Registered Airmail.Sometimes they deliver within 2 weeks of me sending it off although I have had instances where it has taken up to 4 months! One can also not be certain whether the parcel will not be opened or damaged along the way. It is the cheaper option at around ZAR 160-00 (USD 13-00). They do provide a tracking number.

3. GLOBAL MAIL – They guarantee a delivery time of between 10 and 15 days after leaving South Africa. The only drawback here is that there is no tracking number provided. I know of quite a few sellers who use Global Mail and they have had no problems at all. It is also economical at ZAR 160-00 (USD 13-00).

IF YOU ARE NOT HAPPY TO PAY THE DEFAULT POSTAGE FEE ON THIS POST PLEASE LET ME KNOW SO THAT I CAN ISSUE YOU WITH AN INVOICE WITH THE AMENDED POSTAGE FEE
