JIMI HENDRIX ELECTRIC LADYLAND ORIGINAL 1968 UK TRACK DOUBLE LP 613008 / 09
Great Laminate condition on sleeve (pvc stored many years) front has old sticker adhesive removal mark (see 2nd picture in listing)
rare 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 "Very Good Condition +"
this has great audio!
Good collectable copy, clear audio no skips or jumps on our Rega 3, would grade as Very good condition+ , ( some light and hairline scratches and removal scuffs which don't affect playback) some clicks and 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 £300+ in this condition buy the white text copy here for under £196 here!
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)
pictures in the listing are of the item for sale " what you see is what you get here"
some laminate creasing or the rear of the sleeve, the front has one 10mm tear at the record exit side (see picture) also a historic adhesive price tag removal mark (see picture) look at the great laminate condition in photos, no writing, names, in great shape for 48 years! kept safe in its pvc sleeve for many years , its not perfect as this has been handled and is almost 50. gatefold pics and inside laminate very very clean.
The records
label with A side D on disc NO ERROR! (a two record set)
Label B and C is labeled (a two record set) 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.
very good condition+ A1 B2 and A2 B2 "Hand Etched and corrected" with an "inverted triangle" in the matrix which isn't on later copies we have seen...
This is very early in the run in our view... the only matrix like this we have seen,
great vivid labels slight spindle marks plays clean, some light scratches only with some hairline scratches and small removal scuffs no issues on our Rega 3 or the super fussy light tracking Kenwood deck we use to grade, 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!
no writing stickers or names on labels.
Plays fantastic with bright clear sound and amazing 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 affordable no worrying faults copy!
