PROCOL HARUM
MONO
SELF TITLED FIRST AND DEBUT ALBUM AND PLAYS AMAZING !!!!
RARE ORIGINAL U.S.A. MONARCH DERAM PRESSING WHICH WAS RELEASED IN SEPTEMBER 1967, A MONTH EARLIER THAN THE UK PRESS !!!!
AS IT IS A MONARCH PRESSING THE AUDIO IS MUCH BETTER, WITH DEEP CLEAR CRYSTAL CLEAR CLARITY !!!!
  WELL I THOUGHT IT WAS ABOUT TIME WE HAD SOME PROCOL HARUM, WHO WERE FROM SOUTHEND ON SEA, ENGLAND, AND WERE FORMEWD IN 1967. THIS ALBUM IS A 1960's MASTERPIECE, SO PLEASE CHECK OUT THOSE TRACKS ON THE LABEL PHOTOS. THIS IS GOING TO BE A VERY SAD LOSS FROM MY  TREASURED PERSONAL VINYL COLLECTION !!!!

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 RARE 1967 U.S.A MONARCH 1st PRESS  ::  AHS-1511-4 MR (circled) Bell Sound sf (triangle) 10891   ::  AHS-1512-3 MR (circled) Bell Sound sf (triangle) 10891-X  .

ON THE BROWN AND WHITE DERAM LABEL ::  DE 16008.

COVER :: ORIGINAL 1ST PRESS, MADE FROM HEAVIER CARD, WITH SOLID SPINE AND EDGES, WITH SOME LIGHT SHELF WEAR ALONG THE BOTTOM EDGE, AND A SMALL RUB ON THE CORNERS, AND WITH NOTHING ELSE I WOULD GRADE   ::  EX/EX- . 

VINYL :: THE GREAT NEWS IS THAT IT PLAYS BEAUTIFUL, AS IT IS A MONARCH 1ST PRESS, WITH NO STATIC, CRACKLE, JUMPS, STICKS, OR SKIPS, NO CLICKS, POPS OR TICKS, SO THE AUDIO WILL CERTAINLY BE NEAR IMPOSSIBLE TO BETTER !!!!

VISUALLY AWAY FROM BRIGHT LIGHT THE VINYL LOOKS VERY NICE, AND UNDER BRIGHT LIGHT, THERE ARE SOME COSMETIC SLEEVE REMOVAL SPIDER WEB THREAD ULTRA FINE LINES, WHICH HAVE NO EFFECT ON THE AMAZING AUDIO !!!!

SO WITH NOTHING ON THE AUDIO, I WOULD GRADE A WELL DESERVED  :: NEAR MINT .

LABELS   :: NICE AND CLEAN   :: EX/EX+ .

INNER :: NO WRITING, OR SPLITS, BUT NOT SURE AS IT IS A U.S.A PRESSING, THE INNER IS ORIGINAL, AND OF COURSE THE VINYL WILL COME IN A NEW POLYLINER, ALONG WITH THE ORIGINAL SWIRL INNER DESCRIBED ABOVE  :: EX/EX- .

WHAT AN ALBUM, AND CERTAINLY A MUST HAVE !!!! THANK YOU AS ALWAYS FOR YOUR TIME !!!! ROSE.

IF SLEEVE REMOVAL AND HAIRLINES ARE MENTIONED, THEN THEY ARE TOTALLY COSMETIC AND HARMLESS, AND THESE ARE NOT SCRATCHES, AS YOU WILL KNOW SCRATCHES ARE FEELABLE AND CAUSE AUDIO PROBLEMS, SO IF THERE WERE ANY SCRATCHES, I WOULD MENTION THEM, THANK YOU ! 

TAKE CARE AND BE SAFE !!!!
