Description

This is a great example of a great British psychedelic record.. It's the second LP from May Blitz who only released two LP's. It's on the original German 'swirl' Vertigo label. The catalogue number is 6360 007 (AA 6360 037.1Y). It is an original German release from 1971.

May Blitz were a heavy, highly talented, guitar-oriented three-piece band led by drummer, Tony Newman, formerly of Sounds Incorporated and the Jeff Beck Group. The music is stunning and the condition of this LP is superb.

OUTER SLEEVE - This is a gatefold type and is in superb condition with minimal wear. It is not laminated. The edges and spine are also in fine condition with only minor wear at the corners. The wording along the spine is 100% readable. The inner part of the sleeve is in superb condition. There is virtually no wear here. I've graded the sleeve Ex-.

INNER BAG - This is a standard diecut paper type.

RECORD - This is in great condition with very little surface noise at all at any point on either side of the record. There are absolutely no jumps on either side and there are only minor pops and clicks. The record looks superb.

LABELS - These are in fine condition and feature on side one the large 'swirl', while on the other there is a smaller 'swirl' at the top of the label and track listings for sides one (on the left) and two (on the right). There are minor spindle marks on both sides which show that the record has been played a few times.

The matrix numbers on the run-off grooves are - side one - 10 AA6360037 1Y 320 (stamper D) - side two - 10 AA6360037 2Y 320 (stamper F). I've graded the record as Ex-.

I believe that this is a fair grading and all my items are fully guaranteed. The winner of this auction will be disappointed.

THERE IS NO RESERVE ON THIS RECORD.

TRACK LISTING - SIDE ONE - FOR MAD MEN ONLY, SNAKES AND LADDERS, THE 25TH OF DECEMBER, IN PART - SIDE TWO - 8 MAD GRIM NITS, HIGH BEECH, HONEY COLOURED TIME, JUST THINKING.

BAND MEMBERS - TONY NEWMAN, DRUMS, VIBES, BONGOS, CONGAS - REID HUDSON, BASS GUITAR, VOCALS - JAMES BLACK, LEAD GUITAR, LEAD VOCALS.
