Description
WELCOME TO YET ANOTHER GEM FROM MY PRIVATE COLLECTION OF RARE AND UNUSUAL PINK FLOYD ALBUMS. ON OFFER HERE IS A STUNNING ORIGINAL FIRST UK ISSUE OF "MEDDLE" ALL THE CORRECT SIGNS ARE PRESENT TO SHOW THAT THIS IS INDEED A FIRST PRESSING. THE OUTER COVER IS TEXTURED, AND NOT SMOOTH TO THE TOUCH. THE LABELS HAVE THE GRAMOPHONE Co LTD TEXT AROUND THE RIMS. THE MATRIX NUMBERS ARE A-1U AND B-1U, AS THEY SHOULD BE.
THIS IS A MOST FANTASTIC ALBUM FROM START TO FINISH, AND THE QUALITY OF ITS COMPONENT PARTS IS GOING TO BE VERY HARD TO BETTER. IF, INDEED, YOU CAN FIND ONE BETTER, MY ONLY ADVICE IS TO GO AHEAD AND BUY IT- QUICKLY!!
FIRSTLY, THE GATEFOLD COVER. SO VERY PRONE TO WEAR, AS THE QUALITY OF CARD, PLUS NOT BEING LAMINATED LEFT THIS OPEN TO WEAR. NOT TOO MANY STAND ANY TEST OF TIME, AND CAN BE REGULARLY FOUND IN A VERY RAGGED STATE. THIS ONE IS JUST BEAUTIFUL. NO SHELFWEAR, NO SPINE WEAR, NO RINGWEAR!!! THIS GRADES AS VERY NEAR MINT. THE BEST I HAVE EVER HAD THE PLEASURE OF OWNING. TRUST ME, YOU CANNOT GET A BETTER EXAMPLE THAN THIS.
THE INNER SLEEVE IS THE COMPANY ADVERT TYPE, WITH BLACK PRINT ON WHITE POLY-LINED PAPER. NO SPLITS, NO TEARS, NO WRITING AND ALMOST NO CREASING WHATSOEVER. THIS GRADES A VERY STRONG EXCELLENT TO EXCELLENT PLUS.
THE LABELS TOO ARE VERY VERY CLEAN. THERE IS SOME SPIDERING AT THE SPINDLE HOLE. THIS HAS BEEN PLAYED OF COURSE!, BUT IT HAS BEEN TAKEN CARE OF OH SO WELL. I WOULD GRADE AS EXCELLENT ONLY, JUST DUE TO THE SPIDERING.
NOW, THE VINYLS THEMSELVES. THESE ARE IN FANTASTIC SHAPE. FREE FROM ANY AUDIBLE MARKS. THEY EXHIBIT NOTHING BUT VERY LIGHT HAIRLINES CONSISTENT WITH SLEEVE REMOVAL, APART FROM A MARK (VISIBLE IN ANGLED LIGHT) ON "ONE OF THESE DAYS" THIS CANNOT BE HEARD AT ALL. BOTH SIDES GRADE (VISUALLY) AS EXCELLENT TO EXCELLENT PLUS. THE SOUND THAT THIS FIRST PRESS REPRODUCES IS MAGIC! AMAZING CLARITY AND DYNAMICS ACROSS THE FREQUENCY RANGE. NO DISTORTION AT ALL. THE MUSIC FLOWS, AND NEVER TIRES IN ITS PRESENTATION. A CRACKING PAIR OF VINYLS. IS THERE BETTER OUT THERE? NOT BY MUCH,IF THERE IS.
SO IF YOU NEED A TRACK LISTING, PLEASE JUST ASK. I THINK IF YOU ARE READING THIS, THE LISTING IS THE LAST THING YOU NEED! THIS IS A TOP TOP COPY, AND WOULD GRACE ANY SERIOUS COLLECTORS LOT. OVERALL, AN EXCELLENT PLUS EXAMPLE. PLEASE DO NOT MISS OUT ON THIS, OR THE MANY OTHER FLOYD RARITIES THAT I AM SELLING OVER THE COMING WEEKS.
IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS AT ALL, PLEASE FIRE AWAY. I WILL ANSWER THEM ALL JUST AS SOON AS I SEE THEM. THIS IS A RARE ITEM TO FIND IN THIS CONDITION.
I AM MAKING THIS SALE AVAILABLE TO WORLDWIDE EBAYERS, AND FULL POSTAGE AND INSURANCE OPTIONS WILL BE DEPENDANT ON COUNTRY OF ORIGIN ETC ETC. AGAIN THOUGH, THE COST IS PURELY ONLY WHAT IT COSTS ME!
PLEASE CHECK OUT MY FEED BACK. HOPEFULLY IT SPEAKS FOR ITSELF. MY ITEMS ARE WELL PACKED AND PROMPTLY DESPATCHED. THERE ARE NO HIDDEN EXTRAS, MY P&P CHARGES COVER EVERYTHING. THE ONLY TIME IT MAY RISE IS IF THE WINNING BIDDER REQUESTS INSURANCE, AND I WILL QUOTE FOR THIS AT THE END OF SALE. MY VINYL TRAVELS OUTSIDE OF THE COVER TO MINIMISE WEAR.
DONT MISS THIS CHANCE!! HAPPY BIDDING, AND GOOD LUCK.
I DO OF COURSE OFFER A REFUND IF THE ALBUM DOES NOT LIVE UP TO MY DESCRIPTION. I JUST ASK THAT YOU NOTIFY ME WITHIN 7 DAYS OF RECEIPT, AND RETURN IT IN THE SAME CONDITION THAT IT LEFT ME. AS MY FEEDBACK SHOWS, I HAVE MANY HAPPY BUYERS, AND SEVERAL REPEAT CUSTOMERS, SO I DO GET IT RIGHT!! THANKS.
