HEAVY JELLY - HEAVY JELLY
1970 PROMO ONLY LP
MAGNIFICENT MINT MINUS AUDIO
VG+ SLEEVE
THIS ALBUM WAS NEVER RELEASED TO THE GENERAL PUBLIC, AND IS ONLY AVAILABLE IN THIS PROMO FORM IN IT'S ORIGINAL PRESSING. THE ALBUM FEATURES THE LEAD VOCALS OF JACKIE LOMAX. IT IS BELIEVED THAT THE REASON THIS ALBUM WAS NEVER ISSUED WAS BECAUSE OF CONTRACTUAL ISSUES REGARDING LOMAX AND APPLE RECORDS. THE BAND ALSO INCLUDES PETE BADFINGER AND TOM BADFINGER. IT IS ALSO BELIEVED THAT THESE ARE PETE HAM AND TOM EVANS WHO WERE TWO OF THE FOUNDING MEMBERS OF THE BAND BADFINGER, ALSO RECORDING ARTISTS OF APPLE
THIS IS A PARTICULARLY RARE ALBUM AND DOESN'T COME UP FOR SALE OR AUCTION VERY OFTEN. I COUNT UNDER 10 COPIES RECORDED AS SALES SINCE THE EARLY 2000'S AND SO IF YOU ARE A COLLECTOR OF RARE AND UNUSUAL RECORDINGS, THEN THIS HAS TO BE RIGHT UP THERE ON THE WANTED LIST
THERE IS NO OBVIOUS RECORD COMPANY, AND THERE IS NO CATALOGUE NUMBER ON THE LABELS
THERE ARE HOWEVER STAMPED MATRIX NUMBERS IN THE DEAD WAX WHICH READ HELP 4-A1 / B1
THE LACK OF MOTHERS/STAMPERS PROBABLY INDICATE IT WAS A PRIVATE PRESSING
Tracklist
A1 You Better Let Me Know A2 Born For Something A3 Too Complicated A4 Just Don't Feel So Good B1 F-F-F-Females B2 Bio-Blues B3 If You'd Like Too B4 Take Me Down To The Water
TO LISTEN TO THE RECORD, PLEASE PRESS PLAY ON THE PLAYER, AND WAIT FOR IT TO LOAD. IT CAN TAKE UP TO A MINUTE. THE NEW SOFTWARE IS SLOWER THAN THE OLDER ONE. BY THE TIME YOU HAVE READ THROUGH THE DESCRIPTION IT SHOULD START TO PLAY

THE RECORDS
THE LABELS
THE PLAIN WHITE LABELS ARE IN EXCEPTIONAL CONDITION. THE BASE COLOUR IS RICH AND VIBRANT AND UNRUBBED. THE COLOUR FULLY STRETCHES INTO THE UNWORN SPINDLE HOLE.
THERE IS JUST ONE SPIDER LINE ON EACH SIDE ONE OF THE LABEL
THE VINYL
THIS HEAVYWEIGHT ORIGINAL ISSUE VINYL IS IN SUPERB CONDITION. LOOKING AT IT IN DAYLIGHT IT APPEARS FLAWLESS, AND WHEN PLACED UNDER A SPOTLIGHT IT JUST DISPLAYS A FEW WISPY HAIRLINES.
PLAYING THE RECORD
I BELIEVE THAT IF YOU ARE GOING TO SPEND YOUR MONEY ON A FANTASTIC COLLECTIBLE VINYL, THAT YOU SHOULD BE GIVEN THE OPPORTUNITY TO HEAR WHAT YOU ARE BUYING. I HAVE THEREFORE INVESTED IN THE SOFTWARE THAT ALLOWS YOU TO DO JUST THAT.
I HAVE RECORDED THE ENTIRE ALBUM FROM START TO FINISH AS I DO NOW WITH ALL MY LISTINGS, AS I FIRMLY BELIEVE THAT BIDDERS WOULD LOVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO BE ABLE TO HEAR THE RECORD BEFORE LAYING A BID.
THIS IS A SERVICE I AM DELIGHTED TO BE ABLE TO OFFER MY CUSTOMERS
THE INCREDIBLE STEREO SOUND COMES THROUGH CRISP AND CLEAR ON ALL TRACKS, WITHOUT ANY INDICATION OF GROOVE WEAR OR DISTORTION AT ANY POINT
THERE ARE NO BACKGROUND CRACKLES AND IT IS CLEAR THIS ALBUM HAS ONLY EVER BEEN PLAYED ON A DECENT WELL SET UP HI FI
THERE IS NO EMBEDDED VINYL NOISE AND ONLY THE VERY ODD SPLIT SECOND OF BARELY AUDIBLE STATIC IN A COUPLE OF THE LINKING GROOVES
I HEARD JUST 1-2 MINUSCULE STATIC TICS THROUGH THE ENTIRE PLAY AND THAT'S ALL
THIS SUPERB EASILY GRADES MINT MINUS
BUT DON'T TAKE MY WORD FOR IT, TAKE A GOOD LISTEN AND JUDGE IT AGAINST YOUR OWN STANDARDS
THE SLEEVE
THE SLEEVE IS A PLAIN WHITE SLEEVE THAT HAS A 'HEAVY JELLY' STAMP IN THE TOP LEFT CORNER
IT HAS AT SOME POINT BEEN SUBJECTED TO SOME DAMP AS THE CARD HAS LIGHT RIPPLES ON BOTH SIDES. THE RECORD HOWEVER RESIDED IN A POLY LINED INNER SLEEVE AS WAS FREE FROM ANY BLEMISHES
THE SLEEVE ALSO HAS SOME AGEING TO THE EDGES
THERE ARE NO SPLITS TO THE SEAMS AND THE SPINE IS FIRM AND STRONG
HAPPY TO GRADE THE SLEEVE VG+
