ATTENTION FRANK ZAPPA AND 1970s PROGRESSIVE ROCK COLLECTORS! AFTER MANY YEARS OF COLLECTING,DUE TO A DAUGHTER AT UNIVERSITY,I AM GRADUALLY SELLING OFF OVER THE NEXT FEW WEEKS AND MONTHS SOME HAND PICKED ALBUMS,SINGLES AND RELATED ITEMS. BEING A WELL KNOWN COLLECTOR AND DEALER YOU CAN EXPECT TO SEE SOME AMAZING AND IN SOME CASES VERY HARD TO FIND GEMS-ALL WITH CAREFUL GRADINGS AND IN DEPTH INFORMATION!
HERE IS AN ORIGINAL 1974 STEREO 1ST USA ISSUE EDITION OF THE FRANK ZAPPA DOUBLE ALBUM ZAPPA/MOTHERS:"ROXY AND ELSEWHERE". 1973/1974 LIVE RECORDINGS WHICH WAS NOT A BIG SELLER IN THE UK,FAILING TO CHART MAINLY SOLD IN THE USA REACHING THE USA TOP 30 WITH UK PRESSINGS QUITE HARD TO FIND,40 YEARS LATER. UNLIKE THE MAJORITY OF UK COPIES OF THE 1970s, THIS SET HAS NOT BEEN PLAYED MUCH AT ALL! STRICTLY GRADED AS NEAR MINT CONDITION.THERE ARE JUST A COUPLE OF ULTRA FAINT WISPY SURFACE MARKS WITH GLEAMING SURFACES! HARDLY ANY SURFACE NOISE EVEN AT HIGH VOLUME DURING THE QUIET PASSAGES! THERE IS NO SPINDLE WEAR OR LABEL STAINING/WRITING. WARNER BROTHERS PRESSED DISCREET LABELS:2DS 2202 WITH THE FIRST PRESSINGS HAVING SIDE 1 AND SIDE 4 ON ONE DISC AND SIDE 2 AND SIDE 3 ON THE OTHER NO DOUBT DESIGNED FOR NASTY AUTOCHANGERS THAT WOULD USUALLY SCUFF THE DISCS WHICH HAVE THANKFULLY NOT HAPPENED HERE!
DURING THE 1970s,RECORDS WERE OFTEN PLAYED A LOT USUALLY USING ANCIENT,HEAVY AND AWFUL EQUIPMENT,SOMETIMES TAKEN TO PARTIES RESULTING IN ALL KINDS OF DAMAGE!-THIS ONE HAS HAD NOT MANY PLAYS WITH NO NASTY DISTORTION AS PRESENT ON THE MAJORITY OF COPIES THAT SURVIVE! NO CLICKS,NO JUMPS,NO STICKS!HARDLY ANY SURFACE NOISE AT ALL!
THE GATEFOLD COVER IS VERY CLEAN WITH NO WRITING,RIPS,CREASES,STAINING OR REPAIRS! THERE ARE EASY TO READ SPINE DETAILS!
WARM SOUNDING VINYL+AMAZING BASS!
GREAT INVESTMENT!!!
TOTALLY FLAT VINYL! GET IT WHILE YOU CAN! A LOW,REALISTIC STARTING PRICE OF JUST £12! READ ON CAREFULLY FOR ALL THE INFORMATION ON THIS GEM OF A SET!!
YOU MIGHT FIND CHEAPER COPIES BUT I DOUBT THEY WILL BE AS GOOD AS THIS EXAMPLE!
YOU'LL LOVE IT FOR YEARS AND HOPEFULLY WILL RETURN TO ME AGAIN!
SUPERB SOUND PLUS THE ADDED ADVANTAGE OF THE BASS THAT CANNOT BE MATCHED ON CD!!
The previous owner was not a smoker and so this item doesn't stink of that dreadful stale smoke!!!!Lovely pressing!! Warm sound!!.
I test on a lightweight pickup of approx 2 grammes and listen with the treble full on and no filtering or mono switch used.
