KEEF HARTLEY BAND
THE TiME iS NEAR....
THEIR 3rd AMAZING ALBUM !!!!
UK 1ST PRESS, PRESSED ON 1970 HEAVYWEIGHT VINYL, PRESSED OF THE FIRST MOTHER WITH THE EARLIEST STAMPER, AND VERY EARLY OTHER STAMPER, AND ALSO HAS THE RARE 16 PAGE BOOKLET !!!!
 THIS IS THE KEEF HARTLEY BAND, AND THEIR 3rd ALBUM, RELEASED IN SEPTEMBER 1970. KEEF HARTLEY WAS FROM LANCASHIRE IN ENGLAND, AND WORKED WITH, 'RORY STORM', 'THE ARTWOODS', AND 'JOHN MAYALL' TO NAME A FEW, AND HE ALSO PLAYED AT WOODSTOCK, SO AS YOU CAN IMAGINE THIS IS A BRILLIANT ALBUM, AND CERTAINLY WILL BE A SAD LOSS FROM  TREASURED PERSONAL VINYL COLLECTION !!!!
DISCLAIMER :: ALL MY LP'S LISTED ON THIS SITE ARE ORIGINAL AND NOT FAKE OR COUNTERFEIT, AND ARE SOLD IN GOOD FAITH. THEY WERE BOUGHT ON THE DATE OF ISSUE. THANK YOU !!

THIS IS AN ORIGINAL 1970 UK 1ST PRESS  ::  ZAL-9999P-1W  'JT'  ::  ZAL-10000.P-2W  'JT' .
PRESSED OFF THE FIRST MOTHER, WITH VERY EARLY STAMPER, AND THE EARLIEST STAMPER, SO THE AUDIO IS CRYRTAL CLEAR :: 1  M :: 1  G .  
 ON THE 1ST PRESS RED AND WHITE DERAM LABEL ::  SML 1071 .

COVER :: ORIGINAL 1ST PRESS NON GATEFOLD, PRINTED IN ENGLAND BY UPTON PRINTING GROUP, WITH SOLID SPINE AND EDGES, WITH A SMALL RUB ON THE CORNERS, AND A COUPLE OF SPOTS OF RUB ON THE SPINE EDGE, NOTHING NASTY, AND THE OPENING EDGE IS STILL SHARP. THERE ARE SOME TINY AND SMALL CREASE LINES ALONG THE EDGES, AND A BIT OF FAINT RING WEAR ON THE BACK, SEEN ONLY ON THE DARKER PARTS, AND WITH NOTHING ELSE, I WOULD GRADE  :: VG+/EX- .

VINYL :: THE GREAT NEWS IS THAT IT PLAYS WITH CRYSTAL CLEAR CLARITY, WITH NO STATIC OR CRACKLE ANYWHERE, ALSO NO SKIPS, STICKS, JUMPS, POPS, TICKS OR CLICKS !!!!

ALL I HEARD WAS JUST....

BEAUTIFUL CLEAR AUDIO !!!!

VISUALLY AWAY FROM BRIGHT LIGHT THE VINYL LOOKS LOVELY, AND UNDER BRIGHT LIGHT, NOTHING TO WORRY ABOUT, JUST A FEW FAINT COSMETIC SLEEVE REMOVAL SPIDER WEB THREAD ULTRA FINE LINES. SO WITH NOTHING ELSE TO REPORT, I WOULD GRADE THE AUDIO A WELL DESERVED  :: NEAR MINT .

LABELS   :: AGAIN NO ISSUES SUPERB, JUST A COUPLE OF FAINT SPINDLE LINES SEEN ONLY UNDER BRIGHT LIGHT :: EX/EX+ .

ORIGINAL 16 PAGE BOOKLET, WITH PHOTOS AND LYRICS, :: NO WRITING, OR SPLITS, AND VERY CLEAN, AND IN SUPERB CONDITION. VERY RARE TO FIND BOOKLET, AND IN THIS CONDTION NEAR IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND, AND STILL FIXED TOGETHER WITH THE ORIGINAL STAPLES :: EX/EX+ .

ORIGINAL BLUE AND WHITE POLYLINED INNER :: NO WRITING, OR SPLITS, JUST A SMALL TEAR IN THE MIDDLE ON ONE OF THE OPENING EDGES AND SOME LIGHT AGEING, AND OF COURSE THE VINYL WILL COME IN A NEW POLYLINED INNNER ALONG WITH THE ORIGINAL ONE  :: VG+ .

WHAT AN ALBUM THIS IS, AND THIS IS FULLY COMPLETE AND PLAYS LIKE A DREAM, AND WILL BE A VERY SAD LOSS !!!! THANK YOU AS ALWAYS FOR YOUR TIME !!!  ROSE.

IF SLEEVE REMOVAL AND HAIRLINES ARE MENTIONED, THEN THEY ARE TOTALLY COSMETIC AND HARMLESS, AND THESE ARE NOT SCRATCHES, AS YOU WILL KNOW SCRATCHES ARE FEELABLE AND CAUSE AUDIO PROBLEMS, SO IF THERE WERE ANY SCRATCHES, I WOULD MENTION THEM, THANK YOU !
