Description



Rare 1960's blues album which as well as Eddie Boyd includes peter green, John Mayall, John McVie and Aynsley Dunbar and Tony McPhee



Very rare UK Decca lp from 1967. This is the mono version. It is the unboxed Decca label with FFRS logo. The label is grooved.



Matrix number side 1 - ARL 7823- 1A

Matrix number side 2 - ARL 7824 - 1A



Label condition - the labels on both sides are in perfect condition. The colours are vivid and clean. The silver lettering is in perfect condition. The centre hole on both sides shows absolutely no wear. There is no damage or writing to either side. I have examined both sides very closely and there are no signs of spindle marks.



Cover condition - the cover is the correct first press "Printed in England by Robert Stace" and "Laminated with Clarafoil" cover. The front cover is laminated with the rear cover in plain white with the liner notes. The laminate is fully intact, there is no crazing or lifting of the laminate. The laminate is bright and glossy with an almost as new sheen. The rear cover is is in super condition and is free from any noticeable wear. It is almost as white as the day it was pressed. All edges and corners are ruler straight. The spine is from from any crushing etc. The only noticeable flaw on the cover is on the spine with the b in blues band lifting slightly otherwise the spine and lettering in perfect condition.



Vinyl condition. The lp has that as new bright glossy sheen that only records with a couple of careful plays or new records have. Visually the lp is in almost pristine condition. With examination in bright daylight and very careful scrutiny I can detect 1extremely faint barely visible wispy hairline. It is not a scratch and would be so faint that it is extremely difficult to see. I am being hypercritical in identifying this actually when i looked again i couldn't find it!! Otherwise the lp is as it left the factory. The sound quality is simply stunning and is a reflection of the condition of the lp, the quality of the heavyweight vinyl and the mastering of the Decca engineers as well as the musicians!!



The lp also comes in its original 60's polylined Decca inner sleeve



Postage is world wide and will only be sent via insured trackable postage. Any fees for customers or tax are your responsibility. Lp will be posted removed from sleeve to prevent damage to sleeve. Will be posted in professional mailer with 4 card stiffeners to ensure it arrives safely.
