KEVIN AYERS - CONFESSIONS OF DR. DREAM
This is a 1974 UK release on the ISLAND label - FIRST PRESSING. It has a beautiful laminated cover and the first pressing LYRIC INNER SLEEVE.
This is one of Kevin's rarest LPs and hardly ever comes up for sale. A search on Popsike revealed only 2 sales in the last 3 years!
Although Kevin was a musician's favourite and had a devoted following, he didn't sell records. This one sold only a few thousand copies and was deleted quite quickly.
I was Kevin Ayers' press person at Island, so got this through work when it came out. It has only been played a few times as I had an office copy.
I had an excellent stereo system with the most expensive Shure cartridge available. The record was only played once a day so the vinyl grooves could regain their proper shape. The disc was only handled on the edges and was cleaned with a DiscPreener before each play. The vinyl is in flawless condition. It looks brand new.
Matrix numbers are: 9263 - A-2U/ - B-1U
The vinyl is in EXCELLENT condition with no scratches or marks. The label is perfect with no spindle marks. It looks brand new.
The cover is in EXCELLENT condition with no bends, marks or tears. The lamination is in perfect condition with no yellowing or cracks. It's rare to find this cover in perfect condition, but this looks like it just came from the shop.
You will never find another copy of this album in better condition.
