NIRVANA STORY OF SIMON SIMOPATH 1967 UK MONO 1ST PRESS PINK ISLAND "EYE" LABEL STUNNING ORIGINAL 1967 PINK ISLAND "EYE" LABEL 1ST PRESS RELEASE OF:
NIRVANA'S "THE STORY OF SIMON SIMOPATH"
THIS IS THE MONO PRESSING ALTHOUGH IT IS HOUSED IN A STEREO ISSUE SLEEVE. RESEARCH HAS SHOWN THAT THIS HAPPENED QUITE A LOT "BACK IN THE DAY", AND INDEED YOU CAN FIND THIS VERY SAME LP IN SALES LISTINGS ON THE POPSIKE WEBSITE WHERE A MONO IS HOUSED IN A STEREO SLEEVE.
THIS RECORD AND SLEEVE ARE BOTH IN EXCELLENT CONDITION.
THE SLEEVE IS BEAUTIFULLY LAMINATED TO THE FRONT AND BACK, WITH ONLY A CREASE ON THE TOP RIGHT FRONT ( see pics ). THE SPINE IS LOVELY AND SHARP, WITH ONLY A LITTLE SPLIT AT THE VERY TOP WHICH HAS BEEN FIXED WITH A SMALL PIECE OF SELLOTAPE WHICH YOU CAN BARELY SEE.
THE INSIDE OF THE SLEEVE IS BEAUTIFULLY CLEAN, AND SHARP.
OVERALL AN EXCELLENT SLEEVE.
BOTH SIDES OF THE VINYL ITSELF ARE IN EXCELLENT CONDITION. LOVELY AND GLOSSY, WITH BOTH LABELS IN NEAR PRISTINE CONDITION.
THERE IS ONE SMALL BLEMISH ON SIDE A AND A GROUP OF FIVE OR SO OF THE SAME SORT ON SIDE B, WHICH I HAVE TRIED TO SHOW IN THE LAST PHOTO. THEY LOOK LIKE LITTLE SPOTS, BUT THEY DO NOT AFFECT PLAYBACK, WHICH IS EXCELLENT.
THE MARKINGS IN THE DEAD WAX AREA ARE
SIDE A: ILP+959+A
SIDE B: ILP+959+B
AS STATED, PLAYBACK IS NEAR FAULTLESS, WITH ONLY VERY MINOR BACKGROUND HERE OR THERE.
OVERALL THIS IS AN EXCELLENT EXAMPLE OF THIS HIGHLY COLLECTABLE NIRVANA RELEASE FROM 1967.
THE SLEEVE IS A JOY TO BEHOLD, BEAUTIFULLY BRIGHT AND COLOURFUL, LOVELY CLEAN LAMINATION AND A NEAR IMMACULATE INSIDE STORY SECTION.
THE VINYL ITSELF IS EXCELLENT, WHILST THE LABELS ARE NEAR PRISTINE.
HAVENT SEEN ONE THIS GOOD FOR A VERY LONG TIME.
RECORD WILL BE SENT BY RECORDED DELIVERY, IN A STRONG MAILER.
