Description

 

JIMI HENDRIX 

"HENDRIX / 4
HENDRIX IN THE WEST
&
WAR HEROES"

     

THIS RARE DOUBLE LP IS SERIOUSLY RARE AND HARD TO FIND AS IT DOESN'T COME UP FOR SALE OFTEN!

BARCLAY RECORDS HAD THE RIGHTS OF JIMI HENDRIX RECORDS FOR FRANCE BUT NOT FOR THE COVERS AND DECIDED TO RE RELEASE ALL THE OFFICIAL RECORDS OF JIMI HENDRIX AS DOUBLE LPS NUMBERED FROM 1 TO 4 COMMISSIONING THE COVERS TO COMIC DRAWING LEGENDS LIKE SOLE, DRUILLET OR MOEBIUS. THESE LPS WERE NEVER RELEASED IN THE REST OF THE WORLD. THIS MADE THEM IMMEDIATELY COLLECTABLE AND SOME LIKE THIS ONE WERE IMPORTED TO THE US (SEE PHOTO WITH THE STICKER IN THE BACK)

THE COVER FOR JIMI HENDRIX / 4 WAS DESIGNED BY PATRICE LEROY AND INSIDE PHOTO BY JIM MARSHALL. 

BARCLAY DESIGNED FOR US EXPORTS NEW BLACK LABELS SURROUNDED BY CIRCLES WITH THE COLOURS OF THE FRENCH FLAG. THESE WERE PRODUCED IN VERY SMALL NUMBERS AND MISSPRESSED ADDING TO THE RARITY OF THIS LISTING. 

PLEASE SEE MY OTHER ITEMS AS I WILL LISTING MOST OF THE JIMI HENDRIX OFFICIAL DISCOGRAPHY IN THE HIGHLY COLLECTABLE RARE FRENCH BARCLAY PRESSINGS AND IN TRACK RECORDS.

Visually-graded vinyl: A visual grading will identify physical flaws (such as scratches) and can help determine whether a record has been cared-for properly. A visual grading will not identify noise or crackle caused by non-visible sources. Most of the records I sell are between thirty and sixty years old and so it is likely that there may be some background noise even if they look perfect.

Play-grading MONO records: Mono records and stereo records have different grooves. A stereo record produces a stereo sound via both lateral and vertical groove modulation whereas a mono record is not intended to produce any sound from vertical modulation. Playing a mono record with a stereo cartridge will create distortion because it is trying to pick-up the vertical (stereo) part of the signal, whereas this is not intended to be heard on a mono record and so is just noise.  Using a pre-amp with a mono switch will eliminate the noise caused by vertical modulation leaving just the lateral groove signal which is how the record was intended to be heard. If you do not have a mono switch on your amp or pre-amp you will be reproducing the noise from the vertical part of the signal and so the record will not sound as good. This is not any fault of the record, it is inherent to playing any mono record through a system that it was not designed for.   Guide to grades used
