Description
This is from my own collection I am not a dealer, over the next few months I am selling of part of my collection all rarities and collectible no filler!
Here is The famous Electric Ladyland Complete double set !
(Part2 and part 1 also available see our other listings)
JIMI HENDRIX ELECTRIC LADYLAND ORIGINAL 1968 UK TRACK DOUBLE LP 613008 / 09
Great Laminate condition on sleeve (pvc stored for many years)
now rare and difficult to find!
ERNEST J DAY LAMINATED GATEFOLD SLEEVE = VERY GOOD WITH SOME RING WEAR , LIGHT LAMINATE CREASING , AND SOME CORNER WEAR , NO RIPS TEARS OR WRITING ( PLEASE SEE PICTURES)
Please note that this album is complete and original 1st UK pressing and is priced for its rarity and attraction to collectors
Vinyls are "Excellent Condition "
this has fantastic clear audio!
Good collectable copy, clear audio no skips or jumps on our Rega 3, would grade vinyls as Excellent condition, ( some small light and hairline scratches and removal scuffs which don't affect playback) a little static in quieter passages which may improve with a professional clean.
Jimi on its launch said " I made this album with Stereo in mind" so listen..
Tracks include , Electric Ladyland, Crosstown Traffic, Gipsy Eyes, Voodoo Chile (extended original version and slight return) Long Hot Summer Night...Rainyday women, Come on...
most;y recorded in Electric Lady studios in Greenwich Village New York in 68 Jimmy was living and playing there every day and the music here is some of his best work ...
as Jimi said at the time "i made this album with "stereo" in mind , "
great colors to describe the sky .....
The double album sells now with "Blue Text" for at least £400+ in this condition buy the white text copy here for much less...
The "Electric Ladyland" Album on original track labels 1st pressings at a great price ... this record sounds so good and clear, no problems to report.
this is the original 1968 first press Matrixes on UK Track records.
The "Ladies" cover
Very Good Condition+(cover` way better shape than many that are worn and ripped, only ancient tape detracts see photos`
pictures in the listing are of the item for sale " what you see is what you get here"
Light laminate creasing on the front and rear of the sleeve, minor ringwear at front, overall great laminate condition in photos, no writing, names, in great shape for 52 years! kept safe in its pvc sleeve for many years , its not perfect as this has been handled and is 52. The spine has LIGHT WEAR in the central area its got ancient tape on spine and tape has been removed many years pago on rear sleeve, the inside laminate very clean with only slight creasing. No rips, tears or worrying faults.
The records
label with A side D on disc NO ERROR!
Label B and C is labeled together normal
to explain these were made for old style auto changers so you could play side A then drop side B, then then turn both over drop side C then D etc....(perish the thought!) but yes they did!
- NOTE we see many reports of "hey Ive got a rare press A and D..." (this is Normal ) like this one.
Near excellent A1 B2 and A2 B2 "Hand Etched and corrected 8" the matrix which isn't on later copies we have seen...
This is very early in the run in our view...
great vivid labels some spindle marks plays clean, very light scratches only with some hairlines and small removal scuffs no issues on our Rega 3 or the super fussy light tracking Kenwood deck we use to grade, very few pops and clicks in quiter parts but nothing to disrupt pleasure of this great recording (we have not cleaned as this is a personal thing) this is a first press in great order!
the "acid test" of the intro to "And the Gods Made Love" and the strart to "Rainy Day" are very very clean amazing audio from this 52 year old.
no writing stickers or names on labels.
Plays fantastic with bright clear sound and amazing clear bass, may benefit from a professional clean (we don't do this as it's an individual thing) some background static is noticeable in the quieter passages but nothing to disrupt playing no sticks or jumps on our Rega 3.
any questions please ask!
Overall a great no worrying faults copy!
