VERY 1ST PRESSING HERE
The Labels: EX! I can only see a handful of light spindle marks to this vibrantly coloured label-these are only visible when angled towards the light.
Near zero hole wear.
"The Gramophone...." rim text
"MADE IN GT BRITAIN"
NO boxed EMI logo!
All in accordance with the very 1st pressing, back in the 1970's.
SUPERB
(Would frame well)
The Vinyl:
Quality 150g
Has the perpetual dripping tap....
VG(+)...I have just played her all the way through and was VERY HAPPY with the audio reproduction.
There is the odd light revolutionary crackle in the background and pop, but not constant-more noticeable in the quieter sections....this will no doubt improve with just a gentle professional clean and an anti-static cloth...I noticed it more so at the start of each side but certainly gets progressively better and better :)...saying that, the start of Alan's Breakfast has a few revolutionary pops.
I AM BEING INCREDIBLY CRITICAL.
Under bright light I can see some whispy marks to the vinyl, bu nothing terrible at all...PURE QUALITY.
FLAT AS THE DAY SHE WAS BORN
**SOUNDS MAGICAL**
The Cover: VG.
MATTE GATEFOLD original 1st press cover.
She remains solid but does have some rubbing to the edges, is a little dirty and the top of the spine has a small split. There are three small pieces of tape and some tape residur to the bottom seem-for what reason, I am not sure...as well as a tiny patch of lifting to the front gatefold in the top right corner.
Lightly rubbed but legible spine.
That is all the bad points-here's the good:
"Printed and Made By Garrod & Lofthouse Ltd."
The flipbacks are pasted INSIDE.
ORIGINAL 1st pressing gatefold
NO writing
SOLID condition
Still looks and feels great.
I AM BEING INCREDIBLY CRITICAL-PLEASE SEE THE DETAILED IMAGES FOR YOURSELVES AND READ MY FEEDBACK FOR HAPPY CUSTOMERS AND FAIR GRADINGS.
The Inner: EX. It is a poly-lined period inner with the IMPORTANT notice boxes.
Certainly done the job in looking after this beauty for all these years.
It pains me to sell her-but don't worry Floyd Fans, I do have 1 other copy of this album, so I will not be without the great analogue sound of a 1st pressing Floyd!
TURN HER UP!
