TONS OF BASS AND WARMTH! 

IT IS TIME FOR ANOTHER DELIGHT FROM ONE OF THE UKs LEADING RECORD  EXPERTS/DEALERS.  

NOW HERE IS SOMETHING VERY SPECIAL!

AN ORIGINAL 1ST EDITION(1971)OF THE  ALBUM ISSUED ON THE POLYDOR LABEL.

GROUND BREAKING,HYPNOTIC,INTERESTING AND INVENTIVE USE OF THE INSTRUMENTS,TAPE EDITING,NON-MUSICAL EQUIPMENT, AND OF COURSE TOP RECORDING PRODUCTION AS TYPICAL OF THE VIRGIN LABEL. ALONGSIDE THE TUBULAR BELLS LP,THIS WAS ONE OF THE VERY FIRST LPs THAT LAUNCHED THE ALWAYS INTERESTING VIRGIN LABEL!

THE RECENT INTEREST IN GERMAN ELECTRONIC MUSIC KNOWN AS KRAUTROCK AND INCLUDING SUCH BANDS AS KRAFTWERK,THE RECENT SUBJECT OF AN EXCELLENT BBC RADIO DOCUMENTARY,WILL NO DOUBT LEAD TO SOME CONSIDERING THIS LP.

INITIALLY SOLD AT A BARGAIN PRICE,RESULTING IN MANY COPIES BEING PLAYED ON POOR EQUIPMENT,THIS IS BY FAR THE BEST COPY I HAVE FOUND IN YEARS-THE COVER IS ALSO FAR BETTER THAN MOST I HAVE SEEN! 

A MAGNIFICENT EXPERIENCE FROM 1971 WHEN THE MAJORITY OF EQUIPMENT USED RUINED ANY COPY WITHIN JUST A COUPLE OF PLAYS.DON'T FORGET THOSE PARTIES WHERE SUCH LPs WERE PLAYED AND ENDED UP LEFT LYING AROUND WITHOUT A COVER OR ON A TURNTABLE TO WARP AND ATTRACT DUST AND DIRT,SPILLAGES,SCUFFS,SCRATCHES etc etc.

HARDLY ANYONE THOUGHT LONG TERM VALUE AND VERY,VERY FEW WOULD PLAY SUCH MUSIC IN THE SAME CAREFUL WAY THAT CLASSICAL BUYERS WOULD.THIS COPY IS THE EXCEPTION!!!!!!!!!!!!

ANY PROGRESSIVE ROCK/ELECTRONIC/AVANT GARDE FAN WILL WANT THIS AND ESPECIALLY AS A FIRST EDITION IN SUCH GREAT CONDITION-I CAN'T RECALL EVER FINDING ONE AS GOOD AS THIS FOR YEARS-JUST TRY AND FIND ANOTHER COPY FROM AN EQUALLY LONG TERM EBAY SUPPLIER OF TOP QUALITY VINTAGE RECORDS!

NOT ONLY THAT, I HAVE A TRULY AMAZING SELECTION OF MORE ORIGINAL FIRST PRESSING  PROGRESSIVE ROCK LPs ENDING SHORTLY BEFORE AND AFTER THIS LP ENDS.ALL HAVING JUST ONE PREVIOUS,CAREFUL OWNER!YOU REALLY MUST CHECK OUT MY EBAY LIST FOR MORE DETAILS AS WELL AS MY FEEDBACK! 

THIS IS A LOVELY VINYL PRESSING.

This is a THICK PRESSING different to the LATER THINNER pressings from later years with LATER label designs.

SO BACK TO THE DISC ITSELF>>>>>> 

MOST COPIES THAT SURVIVE OF THIS LP ARE IN POOR CONDITION-THIS ONE HAS HARDLY BEEN PLAYED ON TOP EQUIPMENT WITH HARDLY ANY SURFACE NOISE WHATSOEVER!

GENERALLY VERY QUIET VINYL,AS NEEDED WITH  MUSIC THAT HAS QUIET PASSAGES!

Copies of this album were sold in large quantities but how many were preserved like this one AS A FIRST EDITION??

HARDLY USED AND NOT ABUSED!!! 

THERE IS AMAZING BASS AND YET STILL CRISPNESS OF SOUND!

Vinyl is still the best way to hear this interesting music AND ALWAYS WILL BE!

GREAT SOUND! 

MORE BASS THAN CD! 

I TEST ALL THE WAY THROUGH WITHOUT FILTERING OR A MONO SWITCH. MANY EBAY SELLERS DON'T EVEN BOTHER TO PLAY BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO SELL!!!

BID WITH TOTAL CONFIDENCE!!!! 

There is NO spindle wear.Lovely labels!!! 

The  cover has a couple of tiny edge creases but that is being very strict!

NO WRITING! NO RIPS! NO REPAIRS!

NO SELLOTAPE! 

MOST TURN UP WITH MAJOR WEAR! 

Look elsewhere on ebay and you might see other copies-Look closer and you will find they are often later 1980s represses or lower grade copies with all manner of faults OR WITHOUT THE DETAIL I AM PROVIDING WITH TOTAL HONESTY.

HOPEFULLY THE WINNER WILL FIND THIS A BIT BETTER THAN EXPECTED!!

Don't forget GENUINE 1st pressings in nice conditions are getting hard to find! 

MOST RECORDS ON EBAY ARE IN DIABOLICAL, BAD CONDITIONS ATTEMPTED TO BE  SOLD BY PEOPLE WHO DO NOT KNOW HOW TO GRADE OR BOTHER TO ACTUALLY PLAY THEM FOR AN ACURATE DESCRIPTION!
