Rolling Stones
Let It Bleed
MONO
VERY RARE 1969/70 Press
*With ORIGINAL MONO credit inner too*

This is a fantastic example of The Stones with one of their best albums. Released in 1969, the record is peppered with hit tunes.
This was the first Stones label to transition to the boxed Decca logo in '69 and this labe didn't last many months at all....VERY RARE!

(Incredibly early for this very briefly lived label)

Vinyl:
Quality 142g
EX.
I have just given her a gentle vacuum clean and then popped her onto my record deck-to listen to-all the way through, at high volume...
 She plays all the way through with a quality deep, rich audio reproduction. There are just a few very light marks to the vinyl, mainly from removal and replacement from the inner. Just a gentle background crackle/static in the quiet sections.
FLAT AS THE DAY SHE WAS BORN.
Certainly plays through WITHOUT jumps or skips and was a simple joy to listen to.
Quality HEAVY vinyl.

Labels:
EX+.
  This label was one of the first when DECCA switched over to the boxed logo back at the end of 1969/start of 1970.
THE RAREITY OF THIS BEAUTY IS THE FACT IT WAS ONLY AROUND FOR A MATTER OF MONTHS DURING LATE '69-EARLY '70...FOLLOWING WHICH THIS TITLE WAS NOT TO HAVE ANOTHER REPRESS UNTIL 2016!
There are just light spindle marks, with very almost zero central hole wear-please see the detailed images below.
Lovely deep red MONO labels (never shown properly when photographed with a flash :(

Sleeve:
EX.
Original hole at the back showing the buyer the Lp is either a mono or stereo copy inside.
Laminated front cover with just a few crescents and lines of spidering to the laminate near the opening.
The spine is perfectly legible.
Still has the original poster sticker to the front.
WOULD FRAME INCREDIBLY WELL
NO Writing
"Sleeve Printed In England" - The very 1st printing run here.
Did you know it was one of Deliah Smiths first jobs-to produce this cake for the front cover??!!

 Inner:
EX!
*Hard to say EX for one of these ORIGINAL credit inners*
 It is the ORIGINAL CREDIT DECCA, MONO inner with the red text and credits for each track.
*NO SPLITS*
It is, oddly, the very 1st printed inner as the The London Bach Choir is clearly credited and not blanked out as it was later.
Just creasing evident and some feathering to the opening-really has survived remarkably well.
Has certainly done her job by looking after the vinyl for all these years.

ALL IN ALL THIS IS AN ADDITION TO ANY COLLECTION AND IS A COLLECTORS PIECE IN IT'S OWN RIGHT & WITH GREAT AUDIO.
DON'T FORGET THE EARLIEST MOTHERS AND STAMPERS TOO!
