IF BIDDING FROM OUTSIDE THE UK THEN PLEASE NOTE THAT I USE EBAY'S GSP FOR POSTING. THESE COSTS CAN BE HIGH. I WILL NOT SEND IT ANY OTHER WAY. For the UK this item will ONLY be sent SIGNED-FOR.
Unfortunately I need to cash in on some of my record collection to help fund my retirement and to make matters worse my car tax and MOT is coming up as well so (very reluctantly as I thought Jimi was GREAT).........................
For auction here is a nice UK copy of The Jimi Hendrix LP 'Band Of Gipsies' and issued in the UK on the Track label 2406 002 in 1970. This is the original 'Puppet' cover featuring supposedly puppets of Jimi, Brian Jones, Bob Dylan and John Peel though other names have also been suggested over the years. It's worth noting that on the cover it's just got 'Hendrix/Band Of Gypsys'
Matrix numbers are as follows:-
Side A 2406 002 A 1 1 2 1 Side B 2406002 B=1 12 1
The cover is VG+, there are no tears, no stickers and no writing. There is some minor wear and very slight creases. There is some slight ringwear as well. Please do NOT expect a MINT copy. It is however still a decent sleeve.
The records comes in, I believe, the correct inner sleeve patent 800518 & 973939.
The vinyl is Excellent, any marks are extremely minor..
The labels are fine as are the spindle holes. There are the odd spindle marks on both sides.
Please bid with confidence as I have a 100% positive feedback rating.
I am willing to post multiple items abroad which will be tracked and signed-for. Payments for this method go direct through Paypal as Ebay's GSP does not cater for multiple item sales unfortunately.
I try to adhere as closely as possible to the Record Collector Magazine grading system which is shown below as a guide. I do ad + and - to gradings for intermediate conditions. Any record described as 'Mint' will mean 'Unplayed'.
RECORD COLLECTORS GRADING SYSTEM
Mint (M) The record itself is in brand new condition with no surface marks or deterioration in sound quality. The cover and any extra items such as the lyric sheet. booklet or poster are in perfect condition. Records marked as Sealed or Unplayed should be Mint. Excellent (EX) The record shows some signs of having been played, but there is very little lessening in sound quality. The cover and packaging might have slight wear and/or creasing. Very Good (VG) The record has obviously been played many times, but displays no major deterioration in sound quality, despite noticeable surface marks and the occasional light scratch. Normal wear and tear on the cover or extra items, without any major defects is acceptable Good (G) Te record has been played so much that the sound quality has noticeably deteriorated, perhaps with some distortion and mild scratches. The cover and contents suffer from folding, scuffing of edges, spine splits, discolouration, etc Fair (F) The record is still just playable but has not been cared for properly and displays considerable surface noise; it may even jump. The cover and contents will be torn, stained and/or defaced. Poor (P) The record will not play properly due to scratched, bad surface noise, etc. The cover and contents will be badly damaged or partly missing Bad (B) The record is unplayable or might even be broken, and is only of use as a collection-fillerprice rating
