NUCLEUS - ELASTIC ROCK - UK 1ST PRESS VERTIGO SWIRL

















NUCLEUS (IAN CARR)
Elastic Rock

6360 008
1970 UK VERTIGO SWIRL - VERY, VERY 1ST PRESS! - 1Y2/2Y1
GOOD UNLAMINATED DIE-CUT SLEEVE - MADE IN ENGLAND BY E.J.DAY GROUP, LONDON AND BEDFORD
STUNNING VISUAL VINYL - FULLY PLAY GRADED RIGHT THE WAY THROUGH - NO JUMPS OR STICKS, VG/EX AUDIO

FIRSTLY: I ALWAYS, ALWAYS LISTEN TO AND AUDIO GRADE EVERY ALBUM/SINGLE/EP. Visual gradings are ok, but can be very misleading in my experience! I've had mint-looking vinyl sound like a dog! And, reasonably scratched vinyl sound great! So it's got to be listened to to give an honest and accurate appraisal. And that's what you always get from me.

Also, I list every item with LOADS of pictures detailing everything about this item. I hide nothing in my listings and point out all visible/audible flaws (if any!), as well as the good bits! That way you can rest assured you get exactly what is described. Every vinyl is thoroughly cleaned and listened to from start to finish, right the way through! So there's no unexpected disappointments when you receive your vinyl.

OUTER SLEEVE:
Very good condition overall, no graffiti or seam splits but a fair bit of spine wear, partial split to outer (not through to inner though). Minor 'cosmetic' retouching to corner rubs and along spine. Bottom and top edges are excellent. Die-cut front cover is notoriously fragile and this one is excellent with a couple of minor nicks and a small crease. Front and back show moderate ring wear. VG

LABELS:
Original issue UK very 1st press labels with the larger swirl logo above the spindle and "VERTIGO" below the spindle denoting a very 1st UK press from early 1970. In very nice condition, no graffiti or damage, but a few light spindle traces. EX+

MATRIX:
1st press UK matrices

6 3 6 0 0 0 8   1 Y // 2  V  4 2 0     1     1     9 
6 3 6 0 0 0 8   2 Y // 1  V  4 2 0     1     1     6 

VINYL:
Looks superb with virtually no marks under normal light, some faint hairlines under direct halogen . EX++

AUDIO:
Quite a bit of crackle on the quieter sections throughout the LP (Better on B side than A side). The louder parts are excellent. In track 2 side 1 there are repetitive light 'crackle/clicks' caused by 2 very faint hairlines in close proximity to each other. I would give this a mixed grading as VG for the quiet sections and EX to EX+ for louder parts.

INNER SLEEVE:
plain paper sleeve

SUMMARY:
A reasonable example that is a good collection filler until a mint one comes along.

SHIPPING:
Due to very busy work commitments, I am only able to post one day midweek and on Saturdays. I will post your winning item as soon as possible and will email you once dispatched. Thanks for your patience!

I have shipped records all over the world without problems and will continue to do so, however, for complete peace of mind I would recommend a fully insured and signed for method of delivery for overseas and UK buyers, particularly on higher value items. I will offer insured options to all winning buyers on the final invoice.

All records are VERY professionally and securely packed to avoid the ravages of postal systems!
