True Original Uk First Pressing A2//B2
Pink Island textured labels
Side one plays excellent .. I Talk To The Wind sounds excellent for such a quiet track that is usually ruined along with Moonchild .. there is light crackle at the start of Moonchild that does appear later in the track..but generally is a great playing example and one of the best copies I've heard of a true textured label first pressing!
Vinyl retains its beautiful iridescent lustre..there are lights hairlines and a visible rub mark(see last pic) but there are NO deep/heavy scratches that can be felt On the surface in the vinyl! There are also a few finger marks on the surface so it would definitely benefit from being professionally cleaned and it would sound even better!
ILPS-9111 A^2 [14]
ILPS-9111 B//2 [15]
Textured Pink i Labels are clean and bright..there is some spindle wear but it's not heavy and can only be seen when caught on the light.
Front and back of sleeve are very good.. Colours are bright and there is a faint ring seen when caught in the light; but other from that it's just the usual lines /marks associated with storage and being loved for so many years.
Top and bottom edges show shelf/storage wear.
Spine also shows storage wear and is rubbed..not all the text is clearly visible due to this (see pic)
Inside gatefold is excellent..probably the richest colours I've seen on a first pressing..very deep Blues and Reds.
If anything there is a bit of creasing along the inside spine along and next to the hand
Original Blue island records inner sleeve..
(Some discolouration, creasing and a small torn piece missing from top corner on one side))
All in all an excellent true original copy of a modern masterpiece!
I post worldwide and combine on postage.. any questions please ask
