                                    JEFF  BECK  " TRUTH "  1st PRESSING  RARE  ALBUM

                    Released in 1968  on  the BLUE/BLACK  "COLUMBIA" LABEL  stereo  SCX 6293

                                                           Condition :-  EXCELLENT

                   I bought this Album on 16th November 1968.  It was a special order from my local record
                   shop so it was never put out on display for the public to handle.  It was played on a high
                   quality record deck (Thorens 125 turntable, SME arm with Shure V15 cartridge)  It 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 an EXCELLENT condition.  The FRONT COVER is in a HIGH GLOSS
                    finish.  It is VERY CLEAN with just 4 very small laminate creases on the spine edge and a
                    few very light indentations top left.  The BACK COVER is a MATT finish, it is VERY CLEAN
                    and CLEAR without any signs of  wear.  The only slight is that it has the date "16th November
                    1968" written in biro (the date I purchased the Album)  The FOUR CORNERS are all FIRM
                    and TRUE, with no scuff marks whatsoever.  The SPINE is SUPERB, it is SQUARE and
                    SHARP with BEAUTIFUL pinched ends.  The SLEEVE opening has some minute fraying
                    only on the FRONT sleeve, the BACK sleeve opening is STRAIGHT and SHARP. For a 40
                    year old Album COVER it is in a REMARKABLE condition.

                                                                         THE  VINYL

                   The VINYL is in an EXCELLENT condition.  It is VERY CLEAN with a GLOSSY MIRROR
                   finish.  There are no scratches.  The LABELS are the BLUE and BLACK design and they
                   are VERY CLEAN with only one extremely light spindle mark on both sides.  On the Side 2.
                   the label is faded slightly at the bottom and has a few creases, which were there from new.
                   The SOUND QUALITY is CLEAN and DETAILED.  There are only a few light pops and
                   crackles on Side 1. track 3 & 4.  On SIDE 2. track 1. there are some light pops and crackles
                   in the light passages of the music.  This Album has not been played for 36 years.  I TEST
                   PLAYED it on my REGA PLANAR 3. turntable with ORTOFON cartridge, and the whole
                   Album played BEAUTIFULLY throughout.  This is a great classic Album of JEFF BECK in
                   EXCELLENT condition.
                   The Album comes complete in  the original "EMI" inner sleeve, which is in NEAR MINT
                   condition.

                                                                  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 LPs on the best possible audio
                   equipment for that era.  My Albums have always been stored in specially made LP units
                   to keep them free from dust and heat.  Thank you for looking and good luck with your
                   bidding, PEDRO.
