PINK FLOYD
UMMAGUMMA LP
HARVEST SHDW 1/2
1969
RECORD WEIGHT: DISC 1: 145g DISC 2: 138g
MATRIX Nos: A-1/B-2/A-1/B-3
SLEEVE CONDITION: EX
EDGES TOP & BOTTOM: NO SPLITS OR ABRASIONS. NO RUBBING OR SHELF WEAR. JUST A COUPLE OF TINY LAMINATE 'CHIPS' TO THE BOTTOM EDGES OTHERWISE SMOOTH TO THE TOUCH
SPINE: COMPLETELY INTACT. NO SPLITS OR RUBBING. JUST THE OBVIOUS CREASE VERTICALLY WHERE THE SLEEVE HAS BEEN OPENED UP. TEXT IS PERFECTLY LEGIBLE. SOME LITTLE PATCHES OF MISSING LAMINATE (HARD TO MAKE OUT UNLESS YOU LOOK UP CLOSE).
FRONT: ORIGINAL 1st PRESS LAMINATED FINISH. HAS THE ODD LITTLE CREASE (MAINLY ALONG THE SPINE EDGE) AND A FAINT HINT OF RINGWEAR. JUST A TINY BIT OF RUBBING ON THE TOP & BOTTOM CORNERS ON THE SPINE EDGE. OPENING EDGE IS TIDY WITH NO OBVIOUS FEATHERING. NO SPLITS, RIPS, WRITING OR TEARS. VERY NICE CONDITION FOR IT'S AGE.
REAR: FULLY LAMINATED LIKE THE FRONT WITH JUST THE ODD LITTLE EDGE CREASE AND JUST A FAINT HINT OF RINGWEAR. NO SPLITS, RIPS, WRITING OR TEARS. OPENING EDGE IS STRAIGHT WITH NO OBVIOUS FEATHERING. VERY NICE CONDITION FOR IT'S AGE.
INSIDE GATEFOLD: AGAIN, EXCELLENT CONDITION WITH NO OBVIOUS CREASES OR RINGWEAR. JUST A VERY LIGHT DISCOLOURATION OF THE WHITE AREA AT THE TOP OF THE SLEEVE OTHERWISE LOOKING VERY NICE. NO RIPS, SPLITS, TEARS OR WRITING.
RECORD CONDITION:
VISUALLY DISC 1 IS EX+ DISPLAYING NOTHING BUT ONE FAINT SURFACE TRACE ON SIDE ONE AND A COUPLE OF THE TINIEST SURFACE DOTS ON SIDE TWO. DISC TWO HAS NO OBVIOUS MARKS AT ALL SO IS GRADED AS NEAR MINT. OBVIOUSLY NEITHER OF THESE MARKS CAUSE ANY AURAL INTERFERENCE AT ALL AND ARE PURELY COSMETIC. JUST TO ADD SOME CONTEXT, I BOUGHT THIS LP LISTED AS MINT. EVEN IN BRIGHT SUNLIGHT THERE ARE BARELY ANY SLEEVE REMOVAL TYPE HAIRLINES. IT'S FAIRLY OBVIOUS THAT THIS RECORD HASN'T BEEN PLAYED A GREAT DEAL. AN ORIGINAL 1969 PRESSING ON THE GREEN HARVEST LABEL WITH BLACK LETTERING AND NO EMI BOX ON THE LABELS.
ALL FOUR LABELS ARE EXCELLENT WITH JUST ONE FAINT SPINDLE TRACE ON SIDE TWO. NO STICKERS, WRITING OR OTHER UNWANTED MARKS. THE LABELS HAVE 'THE GRAMOPHONE CO LTD' TEXT AROUND THE PERIMETER (NOT EMI) WITH 'MADE IN GT. BRITAIN' AT THE BOTTOM OF THE LABELS AND P 1969. ALSO HAS THE MIS SPELLING OF 'GRAND' (SPELT AS GAND) ON SIDE FOUR.
PLAYBACK IS A SUPERB EXCELLENT PLUS WITH NOTHING TO SPOIL THE SOUNDTRACK ON ANY OF THE FOUR SIDES. BACKGROUND NOISE IS VIRTUALLY NON EXISTANT AND THERE IS NO SURFACE NOISE BETWEEN TRACKS, MAYBE JUST THE VERY OCCASIONAL TINY STATIC TYPE TICK. ABSOLUTELY NO SCRATCHES OR OTHER AUDIBLE MARKS AT ALL. PLAYS THROUGH BEAUTIFULLY WITH CLEAR DISTORTION FREE SOUND. THERE ARE MANY QUIET PASSAGES ON THIS ALBUM AND IT'S A REAL TREAT TO HEAR THEM PLAY THROUGH WITHOUT THE USUAL BACKGROUND CRACKLE AND UNWANTED POPS AND CLICKS.
SO NICE TO SEE OLD 1960s LPs IN THIS KIND OF CONDITION AS THEY ARE BECOMING HARDER TO FIND.
A GREAT UPGRADE COPY
POSTAGE WILL BE SIGNED FOR WITH TRACKING
