JETHRO TULL
THICK AS A BRICK
THIS IS AN ORIGINAL UK 1ST PRESS AND WILL BE EXPLAINED IN THE LISTING, THANK YOU !!!!

VERY HARD TO FIND FIRST PRESS, RELEASED IN 1972, THIS IS JETHRO TULL AND THEIR 5th STUDIO ALBUM. PLAYS LIKE A DREAM AND WILL NOT DISAPPOINT, AND WILL BE A SAD LOSS FROM MY PERSONAL VINYL COLLECTION !!!!
BEFORE YOU READ ON, I WOULD JUST LIKE TO MENTION ABOUT SHIPPING. DUE TO THE TERRIBLE VIRUS, THERE IS UNCERTAINTY IN WHAT IS GOING TO HAPPEN NEXT, AND SHIPPING COULD BE AFFECTED. I AM CONTINUING TO LIST, BUT TO AVOID TO MUCH CONTACT WITH OTHER PEOPLE IF THE POST OFFICE STAYS OPEN, I WILL ONLY BE POSTING TWICE A WEEK . IF YOU HAVE WON ANY LP'S, AND I AM UNABLE TO SHIP I WILL KEEP THEM VERY SAFE, AND SHIP WHEN THINGS ARE BACK TO NORMAL. TAKE CARE AND BE EXTRA SAFE, AND IF YOU HAVE AN QUESTIONS, PLEASE ASK ME, THANK YOU, ROSE . 

DISCLAIMER :: ALL MY LP'S LISTED ON THIS SITE ARE ORIGINAL AND NOT FAKE OR COUNTERFEIT, AND ARE SOLD IN GOOD FAITH. THEY WERE BOUGHT ON THE DATE OF ISSUE. THANK YOU !!
THIS IS AN ORIGINAL 1972 UK 1ST PRESS  ::  A-3U  'PORKY'  ::  B-2U  'PECKO' .

ON THE 1ST PRESS CHRYSALIS LABEL :: CHR 1003 .
ORIGINAL 1ST PRESS WITH WHITE TEXT AND WHITE 'I' LOGO ALONG THE TOP OF THE LABEL, AND NO RED WRITING !!!!

COVER ::  ORIGINAL 1ST PRESS PRINTED BY THE E.J. DAY GROUP, LONDON AND BEDFORD, AND MADE FROM HEAVIER CARD, NOT LIKE THE LATER LIGHT WEIGHT COVERS. ALSO WITH 'CHRYSALIS' AND LOGO ON THE BACK PAGE, PLEASE SEE PHOTO, THANK YOU. NOW THESE COVERS ARE VERY DELICATE, AND SO DIFFICULT TO FIND IN ANY REASONABLE CONDITION, AS IMAGINE IF YOU KEPT AN OLD NEWSPAPER FOR 48 YEARS, IT WOULD HAVE AGED SOME WHAT. SO THIS ONE HAS SURVIVED VERY WELL AS IT HAS BEEN LOOKED AFTER. THERE ARE NO PAGES MISSING AND IT STILL HAS ONE OF THE ORIGINAL STAPLES, SO IT IS ALL STILL TOGETHER. THERE IS SOME RUB ALONG THE SPINE EDGE AND ALONG THE TOP, BUT NOTHING NASTY. THE INNER PAGES HAVE SOME AGEING WHICH IS COMMON AS NEWSPAPERS TEND TO BROWN WITH AGE. THERE ARE NO SPLITS OR TEARS, AND NO WRITING, AND IF YOU ARE THE WINNER. I STRONGLY ADVISE YOU TO SIT DOWN AND READ THE NEWSPAPER, AS IT IS VERY FUNNY, AND VERY CLEVERLY WRITTEN. SO FOR A GRADE, WELL I THINK IT IS WORTH A GRADE OF :: VG+/EX- .  AND THAT IS A GREAT GRADE FOR THIS EARLIEST 1ST PRESS NEWSPAPER COVER !!!!

VINYL :: PLAYS LOVELY WITH NO STICKS, SKIPS OR JUMPS, JUST A FAINT TICK AFTER THE START, AND ANOTHER FAINT TICK IN THE MIDDLE OF TRACK 1. WHILE ON SIDE 2 ONLY THREE FAINT TICKS AT THE VERY START. WHAT IS NOT MENTIONED PLAYS FINE WITH NO ISSUES !!!! VISUALLY ONLY UNDER BRIGHT LIGHT ARE THERE JUST A FEW VERY FAINT COSMETIC SLEEVE REMOVAL SPIDER WEB THREAD ULTRA FINE LINES, AND A VERY TINY COSMETIC MARK AT THE VERY START OF SIDE 2, NOTHING TO WORRY ABOUT, SO FOR AN AUDIO GRADE, AND I WOULD GRADE THE BRILLIANT 1ST PRESS AUDIO :: EX+/NEAR MINT .  IT IS BETTER THAN EX+ SO THE GRADE WILL BE NEARER TO EX+ !!!!

LABELS ::  SUPERB  :: EX+/NEAR MINT .

POLYLINED INNER :: NO WRITING AND NO SPLITS, JUST A BIT OF CORNER CREASING, AND THIS IS NOT THE ORIGINAL BUT A 1978 INNER. REALLY NOT SURE WHAT HAPPENED TO THE ORIGINAL  :: VG+ .

WHAT AN AMAZING ALBUM AND A TRUE 1970's MASTERPIECE OF FOLK PROG ROCK, AND ROCK FUSION !!!! PLAYS BEAUTIFULLY WITH NO ISSUES AND HAS NICE SOLID ORIGINAL NEWSPAPER COVER !!!! THANK YOU AS ALWAYS FOR YOUR TIME !!!!  ROSE.
