On offer here is one of the RAREST LPs you will EVER see (especially in this condition!!!!) by Kaleidoscope called "Tangerine Dream" and is an ORIGINAL 1967 UK MONO 1st Pressing on the 1st Press Fontana label!!!!  THIS LP IS SERIOUSLY RARE AND SIMPLY IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND!!!!  THIS IS ONE OF THE RAREST LPs ON THE FONTANA LABEL (AND ONE OF THE RAREST UK PSYCH LPs EVER!) - AND VIRTUALLY NEVER TURNS UP FOR SALE!!!!  JUST TRY AND FIND ANOTHER ONE!!!!  BACK IN 1967 WHEN THIS LP WAS FIRST RELEASED, IT ONLY EVER SOLD IN ABSOLUTELY TINY AMOUNTS AND WAS ALMOST IMMEDIATELY DELETED!!!!  AS A RESULT IT IS SERIOUSLY RARE AND INCREDIBLY HARD TO LOCATE TODAY!!!!  BUT THERE IS ONE VERY IMPORTANT DETAIL THAT MAKES THIS LP THE RAREST KALEIDOSCOPE LP EVER RELEASED - EVER!!!!  AND THAT IS THAT THIS LP IS THE 'EARLIEST' 1ST PRESSING EVER MADE - WITH 1 INCREDIBLE DIFFERENCE THAT ALL LATER ONES SIMPLY DO NOT HAVE!!!!  I WILL NOW EXPLAIN EXACTLY WHAT MAKES THIS LP SO INCREDIBLY RARE!!!! 

THIS PARTICULAR LP WAS OWNED BY A MUSIC REVIEWER, AND HE ALWAYS ACCQUIRED THE 'EARLIEST' 1ST PRESSINGS EVER MADE - WHICH WERE SENT TO HIM DIRECT FROM THE RECORD COMPANIES.  IN THIS CASE, HE RECIEVED THIS LP DIRECT FROM THE FONTANA IN THE USUAL WAY (THROUGH THE POST) WAY BEFORE THE RELEASE DATE!!!!  IT WAS ONLY EVER PLAYED 2 OR 3 TIMES (AT THE VERY MOST!) FOR REVIEW, BEFORE IT WAS CAREFULLY FILED AWAY UNTIL I ACCQUIRED IT LAST WEEK!!!!  AND SO NATURALLY THIS IS THE RAREST & 'EARLIEST' 1ST PRESSING IT IS POSSIBLE TO GET!!!!  BUT THIS LP IS VERY VERY SPECIAL INDEED!!!!  IF YOU TAKE A LOOK AT THE PICTURES OF THE LABELS - YOU CAN VERY CLEARLY SEE THAT BOTH LABELS ARE FULLY TEXTURED!!!!   AND THIS IS SIMPLY IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND ON THIS LP!!!!  ONLY THE FIRST BATCH EVER MADE (FOR 'PRE-RELEASE' COPIES ONLY!) EVER CAME WITH FULLY TEXTURED LABELS - BEFORE FONTANA DROPPED THIS LABEL STYLE, AND ALL STANDARD 1ST PRESSINGS WERE MADE WITH THE USUAL SMOOTH LABELS INSTEAD!!!!  AND SO - NOT ONLY IS THIS ONE OF THE ALL TIME RAREST UK PSYCH LPS IT IS POSSIBLE TO FIND, BUT IT IS THE 'EARLIEST' 1ST PRESSING EVER MADE WITH IMPOSSIBLY RARE 'FULLY TEXTURED' LABELS!!!!  SO THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NO DOUBT AT ALL THAT THIS IS THE RAREST KALEIDOSCOPE LP EVER RELEASED AND SIMPLY IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND LIKE THIS!!!!  

BUT WHAT MAKES THIS LP EVEN RARER STILL IS THAT IT IS IN ABSOLUTELY SUPERB CONDITION - AND ONE OF THE BEST I HAVE EVER SEEN!!!!  INCREDIBLY THE RECORD HAS ONLY EVER BEEN PLAYED 2 OR 3 TIMES AT THE VERY MOST AND IS IN ABSOLUTELY SUPERB CONDITION - AND THE FLIPBACK COVER IS SIMPLY STUNNING!!!!  JUST TAKE A LOOK AT THE PICTURES!!!!  THIS IS THE ORIGINAL 1967 UK 'EARLIEST' 1ST PRESSING ON THE 'EARLIEST' 1ST PRESS 'FULLY TEXTURED' FONTANA LABELS, 'EARLIEST' 1ST PRESS 1/1 MONO MATRIXES, 'EARLIEST' 1ST PRESS INNER SLEEVE, AND 'EARLIEST' 1ST PRESS FLIPBACK MONO COVER!!!!  THIS LP IS SERIOUSLY RARE AND SIMPLY IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND LIKE THIS - SO DONT MISS THIS AMAZING OPPORTUNITY!!!!   This is the ORIGINAL Fontana UK 1st Pressing from 1967 and is in SUPERB condition!!!!  The record is pressed on THICK quality vinyl.  The Cat. No is TL 5448 on the ORIGINAL 1st Press Fontana label (see picture) and is a much MUCH rarer Stereo 1st Pressing!!!! 

The record labels are in SUPERB condition (see pictures) with NO wear, NO writing and barely ANY spindle marks AT ALL!!!!  IT IS VERY CLEAR THAT THIS RECORD HAS BARELY BEEN PLAYED AT ALL!!!!  The vinyl is in absolutely SUPERB condition!!!!  Most of these 60s LPs had been to a lot of wild parties and are usually found totally worn out, and almost unplayable. This one is NOT and has NO scratches, only 1 VERY light TINY hairline, NO scufflines, and only a VERY few of the lightest paper scuffs only visible under light!!!!  ITS AS SIMPLE AS THAT!!!!  THE RECORD STILL RETAINS ITS ORIGINAL 'JUST PRESSED' LOOK AND LOOKS SUPERB!!!!  It is also great to find that the playing of the record is as STUNNING as the visual!!!!  It plays with NO pops, barely ANY clicks AT ALL (virtually NONE!), NO jumps, NO sticks, and barely ANY crackle AT ALL!!!!  The sound quality is simply SUPERB with NO groovewear and NO distortion either!!!!  The record must MEGA STRICTLY grade Very Good++++ if not better (most would grade WAY higher!) - though in reality this is a MINT record with 1 TINY hairline!!!!  SUPERB RECORD!!!!  Believe me this record is NOT overgraded in ANY way!!!!  I use STRICT RC grading standards - it is not in my interest not to!!!! Brillant!!!!  The record also comes in its ORIGINAL 1st Press inner sleeve which is in absolutely SUPERB condition!!!!  The 1st Press Flipback MONO Cover is in SUPERB condition and one of the best I have EVER seen!!!!  It has barely ANY edge wear AT ALL (virtually NONE!), barely ANY spinal wear AT ALL, NO splits, NO rips, only VERY slight corner wear (NOT through the colour), only a VERY few light creases (cover is VERY flat looking indeed!), NO ringwear, NO rubbing, NO sticker tears, and NO writing!!!!  The opening edge is beautifully straight with NO feathering!!!!  Even the unlaminated back is in SUPERB condition with NO yellowing, NO grubbyness, NO rubbing, NO ringwear, and NO writing!!!!  Again like the record the cover must MEGA STRICTLY grade Very Good++++ if not better (though most would grade WAY higher!) and is one of the BEST examples of this AMAZING Psych cover I have EVER seen!!!!  THIS LP IS SERIOUSLY RARE AND VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND LIKE THIS - SO DONT MISS OUT ON THIS ULTRA RARE OPPORTUNITY!!!! 

HAVE A LOOK AT MY PICTURES - I DO MY BEST TO SHOW THE RECORD FROM ALL ANGLES AND MAKE THE PICTURES AS CLEAR AS POSSIBLE - THERE IS NOTHING TO HIDE!!!!  It really is a GREAT looking LP and it is truly rare to find any copies of this MEGA rare LP in this sort of condition!!!!  THIS WILL BE YOUR ONLY CHANCE TO BUY AN ORIGINAL 1967 UK 'EARLIEST' 1ST PRESSING OF "TANGERINE DREAM" BY KALEIDOSCOPE, IN ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT CONDITION!!!!  Dont forget to take a look at all my other items including many other TOP LPs and contact me with any queries you may have.
