JOHN MAYALL'S
BLUES BREAKERS
WITH ERIC CLAPTON
1966 UK DECCA MONO LK.4804
IA - 1A
Here is a very rare earliest ever 1A-1A uk first mono pressing of this classic 1966 John Mayall's Blues breakers album. This is a really nice original mono copy in really great condition. The thick mono vinyl is very clean and grades as VG++/EX condition. The very early McNeill press flip-back cover is in really amazing MINT condition and incredibly it still looks in shop condition, this rare early flip-back sleeve really is that good, the front lamination is simply superb and the white matt back is snow white and is in absolutely stunning MINT condition and just cannot be faulted at all, It's a real beauty. The pictures say it all.
1A-1A THICK MONO VINYL = VG++ to EX
The thick mono vinyl is in very good++ to excellent condition, both sides still have a really great original sheen, there are only a couple of very light wispy top surface marks and a few very fine hairlines. On side one there is a small mark that causes just a few very light background tics, i can guarantee that this is not severe at all, apart from this very small flaw the album plays superb throughout. The sound quality is really excellent with no distortion or groove wear. This is a really excellent clean mono copy that plays very near perfect and will not disappoint.
GROOVED MONO DECCA LABELS = EX
Both red mono grooved decca labels are in excellent clean condition. There are some spindle traces on each side but both labels still look in great condition
MACNEILL PRESS FLIP-BACK COVER = MINT-
The front laminated single sleeve was made and printed in the uk by MacNeill press. This cover is in really outstanding condition and still looks as good as new. The front lamination is brilliant and the white matt back is still snow white and looks as good as the day of print. The top and bottom pinched spine is perfect with all text very clear and easy to read and the top and bottom and opening edges are straight and true and free of wear. The two flip-backs are in superb clean condition with nice straight edges. You will not find this rare flip-back cover in better condition than this, it's simply stunning and like the vinyl it too will not disappoint.
POLY-LINED INNER = EX
The poly-lined inner sleeve is in excellent clean condition. There is just some light creasing.
