Description
THIS IS AN INCREDIBLY RARE VINYL RECORD RELEASED IN 1993, AND IS THE MUCH RARE FOURTEEN TRACK VERSION. THIS ALBUM WAS RE-PRESSED ONCE ONLY THE YEAR AFTER IN 1994, WITH THE THEN-CURRENT SINGLE ADDED 'HUNG UP'. FOR CLARITY, THIS VINYL VERSION DOES NOT INCLUDE THIS TRACK, AND IS A GENUINE EARLIEST FIRST PRESS RELEASED INTO THE UK MARKET.
HERE ARE THE DETAILS:
ARTIST - PAUL WELLER
ALBUM - WILD WOOD
RELEASE YEAR: FIRST PRESSING FROM 1993
BARCODE: GO DISCS LTD. 0 42282 84351 7
FORMAT: VERY RARE VINYL VERSION. THIS ALBUM CONTAINS THE SINGLE VINYL DISK, THE GLOSSY INNER SLEEVE AND THE ALL-IMPORTANT LARGE SIX PANELLED POSTER IN MINT MINUS UNUSED CONDITION, AND SO OFTEN MISSING MY EBAY SELLERS!!
CONDITION: I HAVE HARSHLY GRADED THIS SET TO ENSURE A DELIGHTED BUYER - PLEASE NOTE THAT I HAVE SOLD VINYL AND BOX SETS ON EBAY AND SHIPPED ALL AROUND THE WORLD FOR OVER TWELVE YEARS, SO BUY WITH CONFIDENCE!
THE SET IS GRADED AS FOLLOWS:
INNER SLEEVE: GLOSSY AND IN GREAT CONDITION! NOT SPLITS, TEARS AND MINOR CREASING! EXCELLENT CONDITION.
POSTER: BASICALLY THIS SUPER RARE POSTER IS IN UNUSED CONDITION, AND THEREFORE EXCELLENT PLUS / MINT MINUS CONDITION
VINYL: I WOULD SAY THAT I HAVE LAYED THIS RECORD TWO OR THREE TIMES MAX! I HAVE PLAYED THROUGH TWICE AND I CAN TELL THAT THIS COPY PLAYS SUPERBLY! THOSE BUYERS KNOWING THE ALBUM WILL KNOW THAT THIS IS AN UNFORGIVING RECORD, WITH LOADS OF ACOUSTIC AND QUITE MOMENTS! WELL THIS COPY PLAYS BRILLIANTLY, WITH MINIMAL IF ANY BACKGROUND NOISE WITH NO NOTED SIGNIFICANT POPS OR CLICKS AFFECTING THIS BRILLIANT SOUNDTRACK OF THE SUMMER OF '93. VISUALLY A LITLE DUST AFTER BEING LOCKED AWAY FOR OVER TWENTY YEARS, BUT AT LEAST EXCELLENT CONDITION WITH MINIMAL MARKING TO THE SURFACE OF THE VINYL. LABELS ARE SUPERB AND IN LINE WITH THE FACT THAT HIS RECORD HAS NOW BEEN PLAYED AT MOST FIVE TIMES! EXCELLENT CONDITION, AND MAYBE A TAD UNDER-RATED.
COVER: THIS IS A VERY FRAGILE AND DELICATE COVER, AND PRINTED AS PER 1995'S 'STANLEY ROAD' WITH A SINGLE FRONT PANEL AND SECONDARY 'BOX' SLEEVE THAT THE POSTER, VINYL AND INNER SLEEVE GOES INTO. I HAVE TAKEN SEVERAL PICTURES IN NEAR DAYLIGHT AND THEY ARE A TAD AGGRESSIVE, WITH THE STRONG LIGHT EXPOSING ONLY MODERATE 'RUBBING' IN THE SURFACE OF THE FRONT AND REAR PANELS. THE 'BOX' ELEMENT OF THE SLEEVE IS IN REALLY STRONG CONDITION, WITH ONLY VERY MINOR POINTS ON THE TOP AND BOTTOM OF THE SLEEVE. SPINE HAS MINIMAL CRUSHING AND WEAR, AND AGAIN LOOKS REALLY STRONG. THIS IS THE SUPER RARE FIRST PRESSING WHICH FOR NOVELTY, HAS A £5 NOTE PRINTED INTO THE INNER PART OF THE BOX SLEEVE! THERE ARE VERY MINOR DENTS IN THE FINE SURFACE OF THE SLEEVE UNDER SUNLIGHT. THIS IS NOT PERFECTION, BUT A VERY STRONG SLEEVE THAT WOULD DELIGHT MOST AND I AM HARSHLY GRADING AS EXCELLENT MINUS CONDITION.
BID WITH CONFIDENCE - I HAVE BEEN SELLING ON EBAY ON VARIOUS ACCOUNTS SINCE 2003, AND SHIP ALL AROUND THE WORLD USING THE BEST PACKAGING!!
