PINK FLOYD
THE DARK SIDE OF THE MOON
ORIGINAL 1973 UK 3rd ISSUE PRESS, WITH SUPERB NEAR MINT AUDIO !!!!
FIRSTLY I WOULD LIKE TO EXPLAIN ABOUT THIS AMAZING ALBUM.... ORIGINALLY 1st RELEASED IN 1973, THE 1st ISSUE HAD A SOLID BLUE TRIANGLE ON THE LABELS, AND OVER THE YEARS THERE HAVE BEEN SO MANY DIFFERENT REISSUES, QUADRAPHONIC, REMASTERED VERSIONS, AND MANY MORE !!!!
I CAN TELL YOU THAT THE ONE LISTED BELOW IS A 1973, 3rd ISSUE, AS IT HAS, 'EMI RECORDS' IN THE LABEL RIM TEXT. WHAT ALSO MAKES IT A 3rd ISSUE, IS THAT ON THE THE BOTTOMLABELS , IT HAS, 'WORLD COPYRIGHT LTD', AND ALSO, 'WATERS', CREDITED TO THE TRACKS IS IN CAPITAL LETTERS, SO LOOKS LIKE...WATERS...AND NOT LIKE..waters... ALSO HAS A-3 / B-3 MATRIX, AND ALSO PRESSED ON HEAVYWEIGHT VINYL !!!!   THIS VINYL IS ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND WITH BEAUTIFUL AUDIO DUE TO THE QUIETER SECTIONS, BUT HERE IS ONE THAT HAS SURVIVED AS YOU WILL SEE BELOW, THANK YOU, AND IT PLAYS SUPERB AND COMES FROM MY TREASURED PERSONAL VINYL COLLECTION !!!!
NO INTRODUCTIONS NEEDED, AS I THINK YOU KNOW THEIR HISTORY !!!! THIS IS THEIR AMAZING 8th ALBUM, RELEASED ON 1st MARCH 1973 .
I MUST MENTION THAT BOTH POSTERS ARE MISSING, BUT IT DOES HAVE THE POSTCARDS, BUT IF YOU ARE NOT BOTHERED AND JUST WANT THIS ALBUM FOR THE AUDIO, THEN YOU CERTAINLY WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED !!!!
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 1973 UK 3rd ISSUE PRESS :: SHVL 804 A-3  ::  SHVL 804 B-3  .

ON THE HARVEST EMI LABEL :: SHVL 804 .
COVER ::  ORIGINAL WITH ORIGINAL 'PINK FLOYD THE DARK SIDE OF THE MOON' STICKER ON THE FRONT. BEAUTIFUL SOLID SPINE AND EDGES, JUST A SMALL RUB ON THE CORNERS WITH THE OPENING EDGE STILL SHARP. THERE ARE A FEW TINY CREASE LINES AROUND THE EDGES, AND INSIDE THE GATEFOLD NOTHING TO REPORT, SO WITH NOTHING ELSE, I WOULD GRADE A CLEAN AND SOLID  :: EX/EX- . BUT NEARER TO EX, RATHER THAN EX- !!!!
VINYL ::  NOW THE GREAT NEWS IS, THE VINYL PLAYS SUPERB, AND AS MENTIONED, ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND GREAT AUDIO FOR THIS ALBUM, DUE TO THE QUIETER PARTS, SO YOU CERTAINLY ARE GOING TO ENJOY THE AUDIO ON THIS VINYL !!!!
ALL I HEARD WAS ....
JUST BEAUTIFUL CRYSTAL CLEAR AUDIO FROM START TO FINISH !!!! VISUALLY, JUST AS IMPRESSIVE AND EVEN UNDER BRIGHT LIGHT IT STILL LOOKS VERY NICE, JUST A COUPLE OF VERY FAINT HARD TO SEE COSMETIC SLEEVE REMOVAL SPIDER WEB THREAD ULTRA FINE LINES, AND A SLIGHTLY MORE NOTICEABLE COMPLETELY HARMLESS SMALL HAIRLINE IN THE MIDDLE OF TRACK 1 ON SIDE 2, AND HONESTLY NOTHING TO WORRY ABOUT !!!! NOW FOR THAT ALL IMPORTANT AUDIO GRADE, AND I COULD HAVE GONE NEAR MINT FOR THE AUDIO, BUT I AM GOING TO PLAY IT SAFE, AND GRADE THE AUDIO  :: EX+/NEAR MINT . AND IN NO WAY WILL YOU BE DISAPPOINTED,I CAN ASSURE YOU OF THAT !!!!   
LABELS :: LOVELY CLEAN  :: EX/EX+ . 
ORIGINAL EARLY 1973 PRINTED POSTCARDS :: WITH NO SPLITS, AND NO WRITING, BUT THEY HAVE BEEN STUCK ON TO THIN CARD AS YOU CAN SEE IN THE PHOTO :: EX/EX- .
ORIGINAL INNER :: WITH NO SPLITS, AND NO WRITING, JUST SOME LIGHT AGEING, AND THE VINYL WILL COME IN A NEW POLYLINED INNER ALONG WITH THE ORIGINAL DESCRIBED ABOVE  :: VG+ .
SUPERB ALBUM AND A TRUE MASTERPIECE, AND ONE OF THE MOST ICONIC ALBUMS EVER PRODUCED, AND IT PLAYS OUTSTANDING, WOULD HAVE BEEN FULLY COMPLETE, WITH POSTCARDS AND POSTERS, BUT AS MENTIONED EARLIER, BOTH POSTERS ARE MISSING !!!! THANK YOU AS ALWAYS FOR YOUR TIME !!!!  ROSE.
