JIMI HENDRIX EXPERIENCE

Electric Ladyland

 Nude cover

Genuine 1st UK Pressing 1968

- Almost 50 years old 1st edition -

Black and silver track, 

White lettering gatefold 

Label: Track Record 613008/9

Silver Black Labels

 High gloss Laminated Gatefold Sleeve

 2 x Vinyl

First Track Record press with V1 (Version 1) gatefold sleeve, featuring the controversial image

 (censored by some outlets at the time) of naked ladies on front/back. 

Discerning characteristics of this version:

Cover spread has 'unwrapped/floating' gloss laminate applied, matt print areas left exposed at the two cut edges where the albums insert.

Hendrix on the right hand side when opening the gatefold (behind back sleeve).

Small sepia images of Redding & Mitchell on left (Front cover behind it), with white tracks/credit text below them. "Track Record" logo center, E.J.Day print data to left. Erratic use of upper & lower-case in titles.

NO printing to the left of the Track logo inside the gatefold.

Discs in poly-lined white paper punch-hole blue lettering sleeves "Made in England".

Disc 1 carries sides A and D, disc two has B and C.

On disc 2, side C the machine-stamped run-out has been scratched out and the correct info has been added by hand.

In the BAOI field a ''?'' denotes a scratched-out character.

Matrix / Runout (Disc 1 side A run-out [machine-stamped]): 613008 A//1 1 

Matrix / Runout (Disc 1 side D run-out [machine-stamped]): 613008 B//1 1 

Matrix / Runout (Disc 2 side B run-out [machine-stamped]): 613009 A//1 1 

Matrix / Runout (Disc 2 side C run-out [hand-etched/machine-stamped]): 613009 B 1 1

 Both vinyls have a few very light marks, but none of them affect the play at all
