Description
The Mothers Of Invention (Frank Zappa) Freak Out!
Ultra rare 1st Press on the Black and Silver Verve label. 1966. UK 1st MONO Press. VLP.9154. -1|-1 Matrix (1st Press Matrix). Beautiful Condition. Only a few plays. Treated with care and respect. Original Inner Sleeve.
Cover: VG
The 1st press font-laminated gatefold sleeve is in beautiful condition. Only a few small creases to the laminate. The text on the spine is clear and readable. There are NO tears, splits or grubbiness. There is only very slight scuffing to the corners. NO feathering to the opening edge. NO scuffing to the edges. This is a very beautiful copy and I have never seen one quite like it. The reverse is in similarly good condition, though there is slight rubbing, grubbiness and a tiny name in pen in the top left-hand corner, as captured below. It is obvious that this record was played very little and stored well for many decades.Vinyl: Ex
This copy is beautiful. Play quality is amazing, and it is very unlikely you find another copy that has such amazing sound reproduction. There is NO hiss, NO pops, NO clicks. The record does NOT jump and does NOT skip. The sounds come through clear and unhindered. There is the slightest crackle between the tracks. It shows that the previous owner might have given this record one or two plays, before hiding it away somewhere safe. The vinyl itself is just as beautiful. There are only one or two light paper scuffs, and the vinyl has retained its just-pressed sheen. There are NO marks, NO warps, NO pressing faults. It truly is a beautiful copy.Rarity: Very Rare
This album is almost impossible to find in any condition. But, the fantastic condition of this copy makes it exceptionally rare. The album is complete with the original inner sleeve. The bag is in excellent condition. The -1|-1 Matrix (1st Press Matrix) is clearly distinguished. The record labels are untouched with no evidence of wear and only a few light spindle marks.
