Please ask Questions on any aspect of this record!

 we will try to accommodate...


Please note that this album is complete and original 1st UK Black Track pressing and is priced for its rarety and attraction to collectors rather than for its condition

this is a 56 year old vinyl 1st pressing!+ the elusive and hard to find original insert with full lyrics!

So hard to find now in good order.


Jimi Hendrix  second album on Track released in 1967 , recorded April, May 67 in Olympic studios London , this followed "are you experienced" in the same year as Jimi was required to produce 2 albums for Track in that year, Jimi was playing and recording in London almost every day so this was no problem  for the experience.


This is a Near Ex vinyl copy   "Made in Great Britain" at 6 oclock on the black track mono label! as it should be on UK mono press


There are light surface lines on both sides, some scuffs, some lines hairlines and removal marks and light scuffs under strong light, this is the original iconic Black UK Track label from 1967  light surface noise in quiter parts , nothing serious on playback it has no skips or jumps or sticks.there are a few pops, nothing to disrupt enjoyment.


This is not a near MINT or Archieve copy it has been played but a great affordable buy for any collector, this Jimis second track recording from 1967 is we believe harder to find than the first record ... here it is under £440!


The original UK mono copies from 1967 are now so hard to find in this condition you can see £500+ is not unusual , here for less than £440 is a bargain....


The record Near Excellent condition 

(EX on MOST tracks)


This is a mono copy and sounds awesome and easily our favourite over the stereo copies.


A1 B1 matrixes

with inverted truangle in matrix this is a very early copy in our view , see photos


clean labels no writing


This is in good shape no writing or stickers on labels, has some surface scratches, hairlines a few spindle lines there are some scratches, removal scuffs and hairlines under strong light no skips or jumps on our Rega 3.


In Near Ex condition with some visible scuffs from sleeve removal and general light scratching on both sides, scuffs from removal which show but do not disrupt play,there is static, from handling over the years, bear in mind this is a 56 year old vinyl record! it has some hairlines and crazing to the vinyl under light which we tried to show in photos. no skips or jumps.

 Nice fat pre oil crisis 60s vinyl wow ! very flat on the table, test played on 2 decks wow great audio.


So thick and fat vinyl..very flat on then table.


See pictures in the listing you can see the light scratches and light surface lines on the record. nothing serious, and it plays through without much disruption. No skips or jumps and fully play tested on 2 decks, one very light tracking. 


There are some static clicks  in quieter passages and intros ,

Plays clear with bright crisp sound may benefit from a professional clean (we don't do this as it's an individual thing) something background static is noticeable in the quieter passages but not many of those!


The Cover is VGC + lyric insert is vgc " the original wow!



Been kept in a PVC sleeve for most of its life in great shape from a smoke free home.


Bright vibrant colour no writing stickers or tears, spine is in good order a real keeper see photos in listing.

Light fraying at opening edge see photos , record stored on separate file for many years.


Having done it's job over 57 years the sleeve has some wear at corners but no visible ringwear at the rear (see photos) and a liitle fraying in place but overall it holding up well.


No WRITING , colours are good and not a lot fading, the thick card holds up well, no writing , names or stickers.  record is always stored separate in recent years.


on the whole a great  sleeve and a very very collectable vinyl. there is some rounding to corners . spine is in good shape,


a great EJ day (London) sleeve.


The "super rare" original lyric Insert is present  (see photos) sleeve over 56 and is in vgc shape one of the better ones  ..kept in plastic protective file.

*see photos) no writing names etc.
