PINK FLOYD
~ MEDDLE ~
(1971 HARVEST RECORDS - RARE UK ‘Gramophone Co. Ltd PRESSING!)
ON OFFER HERE IS THIS SUPERB UK PRESSING OF THE PROGRESSIVE ROCK MASTERPIECE MEDDLE BY PINK FLOYD ON THE HARVEST LABEL.
THIS IS AN ORIGINAL UK PRESSING AND THE VINYL HAS ALL THE ATTRIBUTES OF AN EARLY FIRST PRESSING WITH Gramophone Co. LTD ...’ AROUND THE RIM OF THE LABELS. THE MATRIX NUMBERS END IN 1U/1U AND THE MOTHER/STAMPERS ARE VERY EARLY. I AM PUZZLED BECAUSE THE GATEFOLD SLEEVE ONLY APPEARS TO BE TEXTURED ON THE FRONT AND BACK, YET ALL THE TEXT INSIDE THE GATEFOLD, INCLUDING PATENT NUMBER, IS CORRECT.
THE CATALOGUE NUMBER IS: HARVEST SHVL 795
THE MATRIX NUMBERS ARE: SHVL 795 A-1U / SHVL 795 B-1U
THE MATRIX NUMBERS ARE: H 2 / RM 1
THE SLEEVE
THE UN-LAMINATED, TEXTURED (BACK & FRONT ONLY) GATEFOLD SLEEVE IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION WITH SOME LIGHT WEAR AND A COUPLE OF MINOR BRUISES TO CORNERS. INSIDE THE GATEFOLD THE PHOTO OF THE BAND ON A WHITE BACKGROUND IS SUPERB WITH JUST A HINT OF SOME SLIGHT TANNING. THERE IS SOME VERY MINOR RUBBING TO SOME SMALL AREAS ALONG THE EDGES. THE EDGES AND CORNERS ARE NICE AND ALL OF THE TEXT ON THE SPINE IS FULLY READABLE.
THE INNER SLEEVE
THE POLY-LINED HARVEST ADVERTISING INNER SLEEVE IS IN VERY GOOD CONDITION WITH SOME WEAR, STAINING AND CREASING.
THE VINYL
VISUALLY THE HEAVY BLACK VINYL IS IN SUPERB EXCELLENT+ CONDITION. UNDER BRIGHT LIGHT I CAN ONLY SEE A FEW TINY HAIRLINE MARKS. THE SOUND QUALITY IS SUPERB THROUGHOUT.
THE LABELS
THE YELLOW & GREEN HARVEST LABELS ARE BOTH IN EXCELLENT CONDITION, WITH SOME LIGHT SPINDLE MARKS AND ONE SMALL STAIN ONTHE SIDE ONE LABEL.
