PAUL KING
BEEN IN THE PEN TOO LONG
VERY RARE UK 1ST PRESS ON THE LILAC DAWN LABEL, WITH ORIGINAL LYRIC INSERT !!!!
THIS IS THE VERY RARE, AND HIGHLY COLLECTABLE FIRST ALBUM BY PAUL KING. NOW YOU MIGHT BE ASKING, "WHO IS PAUL KING", SO IF YOU DO NOT KNOW, WELL HE WAS WITH MUNGO JERRY FROM 1970 TO 1972. HIS SONGS WHICH WERE MORE FOLK ROCK, WERE REJECTED BY 'RAY DORSET', SO PAUL KING LEFT IN 1972, AND MADE THIS UNIQUE, AND HIGHLY RECOMMENED ALBUM, WHERE HE GETS TO PLAY HIS FOLK ROCK, AND THE REST IS ROCK HISTORY. THIS RARE CLASSIC COMES FROM MY TREASURED PERSONAL VINYL COLLECTION !!!!
DISCLAIMER :: ALL MY LP'S LISTED ON THIS SITE ARE ORIGINAL AND NOT FAKE OR COUNTERFEIT, AND ARE SOLD IN GOOD FAITH. THEY WERE BOUGHT ON THE DATE OF ISSUE. THANK YOU !!
THIS IS AN ORIGINAL  1972  UK 1ST PRESS  ::  DNLS 3035 A-2 ^ G  ::  DNLS 3035 B-1 ^ G .
ON THE LILAC DAWN ISLAND  :: ILPS 9207 .

COVER :: ORIGINAL FULLY TEXTURED GATEFOLD, INSIDE THE GATEFOLD AS WELL. BEAUTIFUL CONDITION, JUST A SMALL RUB ON THE CORNERS, AND A BIT OF FAINT RING WEAR ON THE BACK, AND WITH NOTHING ELSE, I WOULD GRADE BETTER THAN EXCELLENT, SO  :: EX/EX+ . 

VINYL ::  THE AUDIO PLAYS BEAUTIFUL, WITH NOTHING NASTY ON THE AUDIO, SO NO STATIC, CRACKLE, JUMPS, STICKS, SKIPS, POPS OR CLICKS, AND ALL I HEARD WAS.....

ON SIDE 1 :: JUST SIX FAINT TICKS JUST AFTER THE START, AND ONE SINGLE FAINT TICK IN THE MIDDLE ON TRACK 1.

ON SIDE 2 :: JUST BEAUTIFUL AUDIO, WITH NOTHING TO MENTION .

VISUALLY, JUST SOME FAINT SLEEVE REMOVAL SPIDER WEB THREAD ULTRA FINE LINES, AND A COUPLE OF SMALL COSMETIC HAIRLINES, SEEN UNDER BRIGHT LIGHT. THERE IS ALSO A VERY TINY HARD TO SEE MARK JUST AFTER THE START OF TRACK 1, ON SIDE 1, AND AS YOU CAN SEE ABOVE IN THE AUDIO DESCRIPTION, THAT IS WHERE YOU CAN HEAR THOSE SIX FAINT TICKS. SO I AM GOING TO HAVE TO SPLIT THE AUDIO GRADE ....

TRACK 1 ON SIDE 1, I WOULD GRADE THE AUDIO ::  VG+/EX- .

ALL THE REST OF THE TRACKS ON SIDE 1, AND ALL TRACKS ON SIDE 2, I WOULD GRADE THE AUDIO ::  EX+/NEAR MINT .

SO REALLY ONLY THOSE COUPLE OF FAINT TICKS AT THE START OF TRACK 1, ON SIDE 1, WHICH ARE QUICKLY FORGOTTEN AND THE REST OF THE VINYL PLAYS OUTSTANDING !!!!   

LABELS ::  AGAIN BEAUTIFUL  :: EX+ .

ORIGINAL LYRIC INSERT ::  AGAIN IN BEAUTIFUL CONDITION :: EX+ .

ORIGINAL INNER ::  NO WRITING OR SPLITS, JUST A BIT OF VERY LIGHT AGEING, AND THE VINYL WILL COME IN A NEW POLYLINED INNER ALONG WITH THE ONE LISTED ABOVE :: EX/EX- . 

THIS REALLY IS A GREAT ALBUM THAT I AM SURE YOU WILL ENJOY, AND JUST ONE OF THOSE ALBUMS TO SIT, PLAY, AND RELAX !!!! THANK YOU AS ALWAYS FOR YOUR TIME !!!!! ROSE.

DUE TO WHAT IS GOING ON IN OUR CRAZY WORLD, I AM SORRY ALL PACKAGES WILL BE SENT ROYAL MAIL INTERNATIONAL TRACKED WITH A TRACKING NUMBER, WHICH IS SAFEST AND BEST WAY, SO WE CAN TRACK YOUR PACKAGE, THANK YOU !!!! 

IF SLEEVE REMOVAL AND HAIRLINES ARE MENTIONED, THEN THEY ARE TOTALLY COSMETIC AND HARMLESS, AND THESE ARE NOT SCRATCHES, AS YOU WILL KNOW SCRATCHES ARE FEELABLE AND CAUSE AUDIO PROBLEMS, SO IF THERE WERE ANY SCRATCHES, I WOULD MENTION THEM, THANK YOU !
