Description

NICK DRAKE

Title : Pink Moon Label : Island Catalogue No : ILPS 9184 Matrix : ILPS 9184 A-1U / B-1U

This is the exceptionally rare UK 1st press of 'Pink Moon' by Nick Drake. This genuine 1st press is complete with the earliest pink rim label, the earliest A-1U/B-1U matrix, the original blue Island inner sleeve and matt gatefold Tinsley Robor Ltd sleeve. This classic Nick Drake album has one small mark otherwise it is absolutely superb and sounds sensational.

The record is in Very Good++ condition. The vinyl has the most sensational lightly played stunning gloss, there is just one small mark and a few hairlines. The label is also sensational. The white is exceptionally crisp, the colours are vivid and there is the very slightest spindle wear. We very carefully played this album and we are pleased to say it sounds as good as it looks. Superb. There are some brief clicks on the mark lasting a few seconds but otherwise the sound is wonderful. On our turntable it is crystal clear, vibrant and silent in virtually all but the quietest moments.

The record comes complete with the original blue Island inner sleeve in Excellent condition.

The matt gatefold Tinsley Robor sleeve is in incredible Near Mint condition. The cover is exceptionally solid, the colours are bold, the white is bright and the text is sharp. The front cover image is immaculate, the back has a very slight mark but does nothing to detract from the overall condition of the sleeve. The inside is wonderful, as good as the day it was pressed. The spine is extremely firm with clear text.
