No is PCS 7059 on the ORIGINAL 1st Press Yellow & Black Parlophone label (see picture) and is a MUCH rarer 1968 Stereo 1st pressing!!!!  And PLEASE NOTE - whilst later stereos on later labels are relatively common - 1st Press Stereos on 1st Press Yellow & Black labels are BY FAR the rarer!!!!  All the tracks are Pure quality Love Sculpture at their best!!!! Any fan of Love Sculpture, Dave Edmunds, or 60s music in general, will want to have this in their collection!!!!

The record labels are in STUNNING condition (see pictures) with NO wear, NO writing, and only a VERY few light spindle marks!!!! IT IS VERY CLEAR THAT THIS RECORD HASNT BEEN PLAYED MUCH AT ALL!!!!  The vinyl is still VERY presentable indeed and VERY shiny looking!!!!  And under normal room conditions it still looks BRILLIANT!!!!  However under light both sides of the record does have some general scuffing (though this is all VERY light indeed!) and there also a few hairlines/scufflines aswell.  However IMPORTANTLY there is absolutely NOTHING deep and NO obvious marks - and as a result this record plays absolutely BRILLIANTLY!!!!  It is great to find that the playing of the record is MUCH better than the visual!!!!  The record plays with only a VERY few light clicks/pops, NO jumps, NO sticks, and barely ANY crackle!!!!  And the actual sound quality is simply SUPERB with NO distortion & NO groovewear either!!!!  The record must STRICTLY visually grade Fair++++ if not better though the playing grade is MILES better than this (around Very Good++++ if not better) and this record plays BRILLIANTLY!!!!  And PLEASE NOTE once again that this record has NO deep or alarming looking marks - and the visual grading is VERY strict and relates simply to the general scuffing on both sides!!!!  Certainly this record has NOT been overplayed (hence the BRILLIANT sound quality) and the light general scuffing is probably consistent with nothing more than the record being stored out of its origiinal inner at some point (which is why everything is light).  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 SUPERB condition!!!!  The 1st Press Flipback Laminated Cover is in BRILLIANT condition!!!!  It has NO edge wear, NO spinal wear, only VERY slight corner wear (NOT through the colour), only a VERY few light creases (cover is VERY flat looking), VERY shiny laminate, and NO writing!!!! The opening edge is beautifully straight with NO feathering!!!!  Even the unlaminated back is in BRILLIANT condition with NO writing, NO grubbyness, barely ANY yellowing AT ALL, and NO rubbing!!!!  The cover must grade Very Good++++ if not better!!!!  THIS LP IS SERIOUSLY RARE AND SIMPLY IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND LIKE THIS - SO DONT MISS OUT ON THIS AMAZING OPPORTUNITY!!!!
