Description
THIS IS AN AUCTION FOR THE LP BY PINK FLOYD ENTITLED "UMMAGUMMA".THIS IS A FIRST PRESSING RELEASED IN 1969 IN THE UK ON HARVEST RECORDS CATALOGUE NUMBER SHDW 1/2. THE RECORD HAS NO EMI BOX ON THE LABELS AND THE VINYL HAS THE MATRIX NUMBERS OF SHDW 1 A1. SHDW 1 B2, SHDW 2 A1 AND SHDW 2 B3 . THE RECORDS ALSO HAVE VERY EARLY MOTHER STAMPERS OF 2PA, 2OL, 2OM AND 1T. HOWEVER THE BEST THING ABOUT THIS COPY IS THAT IT IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION THROUGHOUT.
THE ORIGINAL FIRST PRESS LAMINATED E.J.DAY GATEFOLD SLEEVE IS IN EXCELLENT+ CONDITION. THERE IS SOME VERY VERY LIGHT STORAGE WEAR TO THE CORNERS AND SOME VERY LIGHT RINGWEAR BUT IT STILL LOOKS REALLY GREAT, ESPECIALLY FOR A SLEEVE THAT IS 42 YEARS OLD.
THE DOUBLE VINYL'S HAVE RETAINED AN EXCELLENT SHEEN. THERE ARE ONE OR TWO VERY VERY LIGHT SUPERFICIAL SLEEVE REMOVAL TYPE MARKS VISIBLE UNDER STRONG LIGHT BUT I AM HAPPY TO GRADE IT AS VISUALLY BEING IN EXCELLENT+CONDITION.
I HAVE LISTENED TO BOTH RECORDS AT GREAT VOLUME . THEY SIT NICE AND FLAT ON THE TURNTABLE AND PLAY THROUGH WITHOUT ANY SKIPS OR JUMPS. THERE IS SOME VERY VERY LIGHT BACKGROUND NOISE IN PARTS BUT I AM HAPPY TO GRADE THE AUDIO AS EXCELLENT+,IF NOT BETTER, AND A REAL TREAT TO LISTEN TOO.
THE LABELS ARE IN EXCELLENT+ CONDITION.
THE LPS COME WITH THEIR ORIGINAL HARVEST INNER SLEEVES. THEY WILL BE SENT IN NEW INNER SLEEVES AND SEPERATED FROM THE MAIN SLEEVE.
OVERALL A SUPERB COPY OF THE GREAT RECORD .

Grading:- MINT: The record itself is in brand new condition with no surface marks or deterioration in sound quality. The cover and any extra items such as the lyric sheet, booklet or poster are in perfect condition. Records advertised as Sealed or Unplayed should be Mint.
EXCELLENT: The record shows some signs of having been played, but there is very little lessening in sound quality. The cover and packaging might have slight wear and/or creasing.
VERY GOOD: The record has obviously been played many times, but displays no major deterioration in sound quality, despite noticeable surface marks and the occasional light scratch. Normal wear and tear on the cover or extra items, without any major defects, is acceptable.
GOOD: The record has been played so much that the sound quality has noticeably deteriorated, perhaps with some distortion and mild scratches. The cover and contents suffer from folding, scuffing of edges, spine splits, discoloration, etc.
