HERON Heron (Dawn DNLS 3010) Same Self Titled RARE UK 1st Pressing MINT
Here`s an extremely RARE original very first UK pressing of Heron`s debut album of the same name, released on Dawn Records (November 1970).
Pastoral folk-rock of prime pedigree, here the term "pastoral" is truly justified, as "Heron" was recorded on the banks of the River Thames.a major collector`s item that will delight fans of all things acoustic, from Incredible String Band to Devendra Banhart and beyond.
GRADING:
MINT- COVER, perfect except for a slightest touch of grubbiness to the very delicate White areas of the sleeve. Please see photos for details.
- No creasing, no edge scuffing and a razor-sharp spine.
MINT(-) RECORD that looks unplayed! This record will be very difficult to top, as it`s very close to perfect.
- No visible signs of play, no hairlines, no spindle wear, nothing.
- Play-graded also a very near-perfect MINT(-), with practically no crackle at all, even in the run-in and between tracks.
There is a lot of very quiet segment to this music and would be ruined if crackly ,but not on this one ,no surface nose whatsoever, amazing for a record that's 47 years old ,you won't find a better copy than this one.
- The matrix stamps in the run-off grooves read "A-1", respectively "B-1", clearly indicating a very first UK pressing of "Heron".
Finally, here`s your chance to own a copy of "Heron" that looks almost as nice as that day it originally sold, 47years ago!
The original insert is also in mint condition, like new ,don't miss this one ,good luck in bidding,
PS, picture 5 shows what looks like a Yellow stain running down back cover opening , this is not the case ,it's the light that I took pictures in ,rest assured it is crisp white ,many thanks .
