                                                                         FREE  "FIRE AND WATER"  1st PRESS  ALBUM
          
                                        Released in 1970 on the PINK  ISLAND LABEL  ILPS - 9120
                 
                                                    Condition:-   EXCELLENT  /  NEAR MINT

                         I bought this Album in 1970, the week it was released.  It was a special order from my local
                         record shop and was never put out on display for the public to handle.  It was played on a high
                         quality turntable for that era (Thorens 125 turntable SME arm with Shure V15 cartridge)  The
                         Album was always cleaned with a high quality cleaner and stored in a plastic outer sleeve for
                         protection.  I am not a record dealer, I am just selling off my own private Album collection.

                                                                              THE  COVER

                       The COVER is in NEAR MINT condition.  It is VERY CLEAN with a LUSTRE finish.  The
                       FRONT COVER is BEAUTIFUL, with only one light crease centre right.  The BACK COVER
                       is also VERY CLEAN with only another light crease left of centre.  The FOUR CORNERS
                       are FIRM and TRUE with only one extremely light scuff on the bottom right hand corner.
                       The SLEEVE OPENING is SHARP and STRAIGHT with no fraying whatsoever.  The SPINE
                       is SHARP and SQUARE with VERY CLEAR LETTERING and no creases.  The PINCHED ENDS
                       look like NEW.  For an Album of 38 years old, it is in the most beautiful condition.

                                                                             THE  ALBUM

                       The ALBUM is in EXCELLENT ++  condition.  It is VERY CLEAN with a GLOSS finished
                       surface.  There are no finger marks, just a few light hairlines.  `The LABELS are the PINK
                       ISLAND LABEL with the LETTER  "I"  in WHITE.  They are EXTREMELY CLEAN without
                       any SPINDLE marks or any other marks.  This ALBUM has not been played any more than five
                       times, including the TEST PLAY on my REGA PLANAR 3 turntable with ORTOFON cartridge.
                       The SOUND quality was CRISP and CLEAR, there are only some light pops and crackles
                       occasionally on Side 1. Tracks 2. & 3, and Side 2. Track 2.  This does not however effect the sound
                       quality of the music.  It was wonderful to  listen to this great band again after not  playing it for
                       36  years.  It is truly a "FREE" collectors Album !

                       If you have any questions please feel free to email me.

                                                                                   PEDRO'S  VINYL

                       I have been collecting Albums since 1964 and have amassed a fantastic collection of rare LPs.
                       I recently made the traumatic decision to sell off my collection to finance other ventures. I've
                       always been  obsessive about playing my Albums on the best possible audio equipment for that
                       era.  My LPs have always been stored in a specially made LP unit to keep them free from dust
                       and heat.  Thank you for looking and good luck with your bidding, PEDRO.
