Description
NOW THIS IS SOMETHING VERY VERY SPECIAL INDEED! AN ALBUM THAT IS AS HARD TO FIND AS ROCKING HORSE POO, AND IN VERY NEAR AS NEW CONDITION (AND I MEAN VERY NEAR). THE MOST FANTASTIC CARE HAS BEEN LAVISHED ON THIS. BELIEVE ME, YOU COULD NOT, AND WILL NOT FIND A BETTER EXAMPLE, AND IF THAT IS NOT GOOD ENOUGH TO BE YOUR FINAL UPGRADE, THIS HAS AN ADDED BONUS - THE ORIGINAL SALES RECEIPT FROM MAY 1984 SHOWING THAT IT COST JUST LESS THAN $30 EVEN THEN!! SO, READ ALL ABOUT IT:-
AN ICONIC PINK FLOYD ALBUM FROM MY OWN PRIVATE COLLECTION THAT I HAVE PUT TOGETHER OVER MANY YEARS. THIS IS THEIR ALBUM "THE WALL".
THIS IS THE CBS MASTERSOUND HALF SPEED MASTERED VERSION. I AM SURE YOU DO NOT NEED THE BENEFITS OF HALF SPEED RECORDING SPELLING OUT, THEY ARE LIKE NIGHT AND DAY TO NORMAL RECORDINGS. MFSL AND CBS MASTERSOUND CORNERED THE MARKET IN THIS QUALITY SECTOR, USING STATE-OF-THE-ART TECHNIQUES AND MATERIALS TO PRODUCE A PRODUCT OF SUCH QUALITY AND AUDIO CAPABILITY THAT WHY ANYONE WOULD WANT ANOTHER RECORDING BEATS ME. FORGET YOUR FIRST PRESS MISALIGNED BRICKS WITH PURPLE OUTLINES ETC ETC. GET THIS COPY AND SELL YOUR OLD COPY ON. I CAN ASSURE YOU, ONCE YOUR EARS HAVE WRAPPED THEMSELVES AROUND THIS, YOU WOULD EVEN GIVE YOUR OLD COPY AWAY. THIS BLOWS THEM OUT OF THE WATER. VERY RARE TO FIND ANYWAY, BUT IN THIS VERY NEAR MINT CONDITION? NEXT TO IMPOSSIBLE!!
I WILL MAKE THE DESCRIPTION OF ITS PARTS SIMPLE. THE COVER IS NEAR MINT. EDGES AND CORNERS SHARP AND TRUE, SPINE WIDE AND SQUARE. UNMARKED. NO RINGWEAR, SHELFWEAR, SCUFFS, LUMPS BUMPS, WRITING, YOU NAME IT, THIS HAS NOT GOT IT.
THE RICE PAPER INNER SLEEVES HAVE SLIGHT WRINKLES, AND ONE CORNER OF ONE IS CREASED. GRADED EXCELLENT ++ NO SLITS, RIPS OR TEARS. THE LYRIC SHEET IS VERY NEAR MINT. THE LABELS HAVE NO MARKS AT ALL, NEAR MINT. ALL 4 SIDES OF VINYL ARE NEAR MINT. NOT A MARK TO BE SEEN. THE BEST YOU CAN FIND. LOOK LIKE THEY SAW DAYLIGHT FOR THE FIRST TIME JUST TODAY. THE BILL OF SALE (DATED MAY 1st 1984) IS CREASED IN 2 PLACES WHERE IT HAS BEEN LEFT FOLDED INSIDE THE GATEFOLD SLEEVE, BUT IS 100% READABLE, AND IN EXCELLENT CONDITION.
THE ORIGINAL MASTERSOUND "BAGGIE" IS FULLY INTACT, WITH LIGHT HANDLING MARKS, SO I WOULD JUST GRADE AS EXCELLENT. THE GERALD SCARFE STICKER IS ATTATCHED TO THIS BAGGIE, AND IS IN SUPERB ORDER.
ON SALE WITH LOW START PRICE, AND NO RESERVE. AN ALBUM OF THIS QUALITY WILL FIND ITS OWN MARKET LEVEL WITHOUT MY HELP.
THATS IT. RARE IN THE EXTREME. AUDIO OF THE VERY HIGHEST ORDER. I HAVE PLAYED EACH SIDE ONCE ONLY, JUST FOR RECORDING PURPOSES, AND IT SHOWS (OR SHOULD I SAY, IT DOESNT SHOW!). THIS IS YOUR FINAL UPGRADE. BEST AUDIO POSSIBLE AND BEST CONDITION POSSIBLE. YOU WOULD HAVE TO BE MAD NOT TO WANT THIS DEFINITIVE COPY. DONT MISS IT!!!!!
I CAN TELL YOU LITTLE MORE. YOU KNOW THE ALBUM. YOU KNOW THE TRACKS. YOU KNOW THE QUALITY THAT IS ENSURED WITH A HALF SPEED MASTERED COPY.
IF YOU ARE BIDDING, I WISH YOU GOOD LUCK. I CAN JUST SAY THAT ONCE THIS IS WON, THE WINNER WILL HAVE MY FULL ATTENTION TO DETAIL AND COMMENTS UNTIL THEY HAVE IT SAFELY IN THEIR HANDS.
I PACKAGE ALL MY RECORDS WITH EXTREMELY ROBUST MATERIALS, SO WILL REACH YOU IN FINE SHAPE. I POST VERY QUICKLY TOO.
PLEASE READ MY FEEDBACK. I HAVE PEOPLE COME BACK TIME AND AGAIN TO BUY, SO I MUST GET IT PRETTY MUCH RIGHT. IF THE ITEMS DO NOT MATCH MY DESCRIPTION, I OFFER A FULL REFUND UPON THE SAFE RETURN OF THE ALBUMS, SO LONG AS I HAVE BEEN INFORMED WITHIN 7 DAYS OF RECEIPT. I WILL OFFER INSURANCE OVER AND ABOVE THE POST OFFICE NORM IF REQUIRED. IF IT SELLS OVERSEAS PLEASE WAIT FOR A FINAL INVOICE, AS SOME COUNTRIES DO COST MORE THAN OTHERS!! BE ASSURED OF MY TOTAL COMMITMENT THROUGHOUT THE SALE AND AFTER SERVICE, AND I WILL ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS WHATSOEVER JUST AS SOON AS I SEE THEM. IF YOU REQUIRE EXTRA PHOTOGRAPHS, JUST LET ME KNOW.
I MUST JUST ADD THAT I AM FLYING ON HOLIDAY ON FRIDAY MARCH 13th (IS THAT A GOOD IDEA!), SO WILL NOT BE ABLE TO POST FOR A FORTNIGHT AFTER SALE END. I WILL NOT EXPECT PAYMENT UNTIL I RETURN, UNLEES YOU WANT TO PAY AHEAD. F A BUYER FROM THE USA WINS, I COULD DROP IT AT HOUSTON AIRPORT ON THE 14th (JOKE). THANKS FOR YOUR UNDERSTANDING ON THAT ONE.
