THIS LP IS INCREDIBLY HARD TO FIND AS A 1ST PRESSING!!!!  THIS LP SIMPLY NEVER TURNS UP AS A 1ST PRESSING - AND IS EVEN RARER IN THIS CONDITION!!!!  THIS IS THE 1971 PYE INTERNATIONAL 1ST PRESSING ON THE 1ST PRESS BLUE PYE LABEL, 1ST PRESS INNER SLEEVE AND 1ST PRESS FULLY LAMINATED 'GARROD & LOFTHOUSE' GATEFOLD SLEEVE!!!!  IT IS INCREDIBLY RARE TO FIND A 1ST PRESSING OF THIS LP - SO DONT MISS OUT ON THIS MEGA RARE OPPORTUNITY!!!! This is an ORIGINAL UK 1st Stereo pressing from 1971 and is in STUNNING condition!!!! The record is pressed on thick quality vinyl. The Cat. No is NSPL 28144 on the ORIGINAL 1st Press Blue International Pye Label (see picture) and is a UK 1971 Stereo 1st pressing!!!! All the tracks are pure quality  Funkadelic at their best!!!! Any fan of  Funkadelic, or 60s/70s music in general, will want to have this in their collection!!!!

The record labels are in STUNNING condition (see pictures) with NO wear, NO writing, and only a few light spindle marks!!!! The vinyl is in BRILLIANT condition!!!! Most of these 60s/70s LPs had been to a lot of wild parties and are usually found totally worn out, and almost unplayable. This one is NOT and has NO scratches, NO hairlines and only a very VERY few of the VERY lightest paper scuffs only visible under EXTREME light!!!! ITS AS SIMPLE AS THAT!!!! THE RECORD STILL RETAINS ITS ORIGINAL 'JUST PRESSED' LOOK!!!! It is great to find that the record plays (almost) as STUNNINGLY as the visual with NO pops, NO sticking, and NO jumps!!!! There is also some VERY slight low level background noise/crackle in a few places, but this is only noticeable in the run on grooves, and some gaps - but virtually invisible in the music!!!!  This record clearly hasnt been played much AT ALL and has clearly been VERY well looked after - so I would think the low level background sound in places is from the original pressing. There is NO groovewear either and NO distortion.  The record must grade visually Excellent++++ if not better - though the playing grade is slightly less than this for the reason given above.  Believe me this record is NOT overgraded in ANY way!!!! I use STRICT RC grading standards - it is not in my interest not to!!!! Brillant!!!! The record also comes in its ORIGINAL inner sleeve!!!! The 1st Press FULLY LAMINATED 'Garrod & Lofthouse' Cover is in STUNNING condition and VERY rare to find like this!!!!  It has NO edge wear, NO spinal wear, barely ANY creases AT ALL (cover is AMAZINGLY flat looking), only
VERY slight corner wear (NOT through the colour), and NO writing!!!! The opening edge is beautifully straight with NO feathering!!!! Even the laminated back is in STUNNING condition with NO writing, NO rubbing, NO grubbyness, and only some VERY slight yellowing!!!!  The cover must grade Excellent (Minus) if not FULL Excellent and is VERY hard to find like this!!!! THIS LP IS EXTREMELY RARE AS A 1ST PRESSING ON THE 1ST PRESS BLUE PUE LABEL!!!! DONT MISS OUT ON THIS MEGA RARE OPPORTUNITY!!!!
