Description
PINK FLOYD A Saucerful Of Secrets 1970 UK 3rd ISSUE Nr MINT
LAMINATED G&L FLIPBACK, ONE EMI BOX, -1 / -1 MATRIX
PINK FLOYDA Saucerful Of Secrets
1970 UK COLUMBIA (SCX 6258) THIRD ISSUE OF PINK FLOYD'S CLASSIC "A Saucerful Of Secrets" LP
LOVELY COPY WHICH HAS PROBABLY ONLY EVER BEEN PLAYED ONCE
DELIVERING PRACTICALLY FLAWLESS SOUND THROUGHOUT - JUST ONE TINY FLAW WHICH PRODUCES TWO CLICKS (see detailed audio assessment below) OTHERWISE, SUPERB
PRESSED ON HEAVYWEIGHT VINYL (thick and chunky) THE BLACK/SILVER COLUMBIA LABELS HAVE JUST ONE EMI BOX (this design was only used 1969/1970 before a further EMI box was added to the top of the label in early 1971)
THIS COPY DATES FROM 1970 AS THERE IS NO "Sold In UK" STATEMENT AT THE BOTTOM OF THE LABEL WHICH WAS REMOVED IN LATE 1969
MATRIX: YAX 3633-1 / YAX 3634-1
MOTHERS/STAMPERS: 1/M and 1/RG
THE RECORD IS HOUSED IN THE FRONT LAMINATED 'GARROD & LOFTHOUSE' 'PATENTS PENDING' FLIPBACK SLEEVE date coded '6807' (1968, July)
COMPLETE WITH THE ORIGINAL PLAIN WHITE INNER SLEEVE WITH UK PATENT NUMBER AND "MADE IN GREAT BRITAIN" TEXT PRINTED IN GREY
Side 1: Let There Be More Light / Remember A Day / Set The Controls For The Heart Of The Sun / Corporal Clegg
Side 2: A Saucerful Of Secrets / See-Saw / Jugband Blues
LABELS: NEAR MINT
Clean and unmarked labels with just one light spindle traces per side.
There is some light rubbing around the centres but I am sure this is from manufacture as this copy has barely been played
VINYL Visual: NEAR MINT
Both surfaces shine like new and have just two small imperfections. There are two small circular mark (parallel to the grooves) on Side One, one on 'Corporal Clegg' which is audible for two revolutions and a lighter one on 'Remember A Day' which has no audio impact
VINYL Audio: NEAR MINT
A wonderful copy - possibly only played the one time, and apart from the mark on 'Corporal Clegg' causing two clicks as it is passed over the audio delivery throughout the rest of the LP is flawless - strong, deep and rich with beautifully clean and practically silent playing surfaces, run-ins and track divisions
SLEEVE: NEAR MINT
Superb example. The laminated front is like new with a deep glossy sheen, the edges and spine are crisp, sharp and square and the untreated back is very clean with no damage to the flipback sections. The original owner has placed a 'rating' sticker on the back but it is not particularly intrusive (and could probably be removed - but I will leave that up to you)
INNER SLEEVE: NEAR MINT
Clean and white and practically untouched
ALL RECORDS ARE PACKAGED WITH THE VINYL OUTSIDE OF THE SLEEVE TO PREVENT ANY 'KNIFING' DURING TRANSIT
A PROTECTIVE POLY SLEEVE, NEW INNER SLEEVE WITH ANTI-STATIC LINER, QUALITY BOX (NOT ENVELOPE) MAILER AND AMPLE STIFFENERS ARE ALWAYS USED TO ENSURE THAT YOUR RECORD ARRIVES SAFELY
