Description

I have been an obsessive collector of vinyl LP's and singles for many years, and from the very first I have always been very careful about the condition of the records I have bought. Once in my posession the records have been well stored and always very carefully handled. If the records have been played at all, it has always been on a good quality hi - fi system, the deck being a Linn LP12 deck with a top of the range arm and cartridge.

As a result, most of the many thousands of items in my collection are in excellent condition or better.

Now, in order to create more space at home, I have decided to cut the collection back to a core of my personal favourite artistes, and to dispose of the remainder. These I intend to list for auction over the coming months.

For auction here is an original UK stereo copy of the Michael Gibbs LP entitled 'Tanglewood 63' on the Deram label number SML 1087 issued in 1971.

The laminated gatefold cover is generally in good condition with some light edge bumping and light creasing and a dim impression of the LP in the surface, but generally no major faults to report.  The blue stereo lined Deram inner sleeve is present and apart from a little age toning and usual light creasing is again without major fault.

On first inspection the vinyl and labels look in fantastic condition, both being bright and clean. A closer inspection under strong lighting does show some spindlehole marks so it has seen some play, but it sounds good on my Linn and apart from light surface noise hasn't suffered any significant loss of  fidelity.

I'd rate this VG+/VG+ on the Record Collector grading system, many would call it EX- on both counts.

It is offered at No RESERVE and at a very low opening bid price.
