Description

 

This Michael Chapman - Raimaker debut stereo album (SHVL 755) on the yellow Harvest Records label is an early pressing on 150gm vinyl with A-2G/B-2G matrix numbers. The label is the rare original format with no EMI logo and ‘The Gramophone Co Ltd’ text on the rims.

The disc itself still has a very high gloss. There is very light spindle marking on the labels and no hole wear. There are a few minor marks but these have minimal audible effect. I would grade the vinyl as excellent or better. (Please see photographs for a better idea of record quality.)

The original UK patented poly lined inner sleeve is in very good condition.

The laminated white gatefold sleeve (Garrod & Lofthouse) is in excellent condition with minimal ringwear. There is virtually no wear to the edges and corners. The spine,although just slightly delaminated, is in very good condition and the text is clearly legible.

I bought the album from new and it has been kept upright in a custom built cupboard away from light and damp in virtually dust free conditions since then. It had minimal playings when new and has been unplayed since - apart from the check I carried out recently prior to listing it on Ebay.

This is a fabulous album from a greatly underestimated performer. All tracks play exceptionally well and the sound quality is excellent.

The LP will be sent in a strong brown LP mailer with stiffener. Additional packaging and tracking will be used for overseas mail.

For greater detail I am happy to email the original photos if required.
