Description

Hi, my name is Brian and I have been collecting vinyl for many years.

I have many albums for sale, i collected lots of labels over the years such as DERAM, PEGASUS, VERTIGO SWIRL/SPIRAL, CHARISMA, HARVEST, PINK ISLAND, RCA NEON, DANDELION etc......

I am not and have never been a 'dealer' by profession, but I have always given honest descriptions and lots of clear photo's of any items I have sold. I do know how disappointing it is when you open that package and the item has been over sold with expressions such as "AWESOME" etc when the item is only in EX- condition or worse. If you are in anyway disappointed with an item from me you are most welcome to return it with a FULL REFUND, providing it is an honest and just mistake by myself as I believe in my descriptions.

PLEASE EMAIL FOR POSTAGE CHARGES, I WILL NOT POST INTERNATIONALLY UNLESS INSURED

SO HERE WE GO.......

For sale here is --THE JIMMY HENDRIX EXPERIENCE--AXIS: BOLD AS LOVE-- UK ORIGINAL FIRST TRACK MONO PRESSING WITH ORIGINAL FIRST PRINT SLEEVE WITH SUPER RARE LYRIC INSERT.

MONO TRACK 612 003, RELEASED 1967 (VERTIGO SWIRL / SPIRAL RELEASE)?!?

SLEEVE..... GATEFOLD and LAMINATED. This is the very first printing of this sleeve.This one has survived quite well. It is in GREAT condition showing only moderate wear and tear. The colours are very strong and vibrant . The bottom edge is Ex with NO SPLITS and little wear, just 1 small scrape. The top edges are in N/MINT condition, NO wear or splits. The front is EX- with NO UNWANTED WRITING and NO STICKERS (see close-up picture of the surface damage repair) . There is wear to all four corners. The back of the sleeve is in EX+ condition with NO RING WEAR, just a little surface rub. The inner gatefold is in wonderful condition with NO DAMAGE just a neatly written name N/MINT. The spine has very light wear EX+. All in all this is in SUPERB condition for a sleeve of some 42years of age, EX(-).

INSERT..... Clean and bright with just 1 small crease to the bottom left corner tip. EX++

LABELS.....There is no damage to either label. EX/EX.

VINYL....Both sides of this fantastic album still have a deep black shine. When you hold this album in the very brightest of lights you can see surface hair lines which are caused by removal and replacement in and out of the inner sleeve but NO deep scratches. Both sides play WITHOUT JUMPS or CLICKS. I have played this album on my very sensitive and revealing LINN SONDEK and the sound is UN-WORN, it is full and crisp there is NO loss of listening pleasure at all, I was totally blown away with the quality of the play back, these super heavy mono vinyl pressing are so resilient. There are dust crackles (but NO loud clicks) that can be heard only in the quieter parts of the music or between tracks, but a professional clean could sort out some of that. This really is a great copy that any collector would be delighted to add to their collection, NOT MINT BUT IN VERY COLLECTABLE CONDITION AND IS GRADED AS AN HONEST VG+/EX- SOME 42 YEARS OLD NOW???!!!

IT IS IN SUPERB COLLECTABLE CONDITION AND SO VERY HARD TO FIND IN ANY CONDITION

DON'T MISS THIS IT COULD BE YOUR ONE AND ONLY CHANCE.

Please do not hesitate to contact me with any questions.

I prefer payment by paypal, UK bidders may use a personal cheque.

GOOD LUCK bidding! Brian.
