Pink Floyd Dark Side Of The Moon LP UK Original Apr74 [Ex/Vg+] A3/B3 No Rim Text

Description

An original Apr 1974 copy - Matrix A3/B3. Lovely heavy-set early pressing - means you have deep grooves and are not far from those pristine masters. And many listeners are pretty much in agreement that bang4buck...this is the best copy of Darkside out there. How do we know it's from Apr74? Because Emi dropped the Gramophone text in the perimeter at this time. And as they were attempting the re-design the 1st copies left the factory with no rim text...and for Emi...quite a remarkable cock up!... The vinyl comes housed in an original gatefold cover - with left panel sealed shut. There's an original generic white original inner from the time. No posters or stickers. When you think how much $$$ you'd shell out for a copy from just 9 months earlier...I would argue...well worth having a serious think about it.
Vinyl (Ex/Vg+) In great condition and has only seen relatively light use. Under close inspection I can only make out a couple of slight marks per side - nothing heavy or troublesome. A thorough testing from beginning to end reveals a mostly EXCELLENT level of playback....with deviation in a couple spots. Intros and inbetweens are nice and clean and the audio comes across with excellent clarity. This example is managing, predominantly a very nice clean and assured delivery. Not 100% clean...90% clean. The only track I'm detecting a bit of light background presence is through the track 'Breath In The Air'. Nothing upfront or that noticeable - but audible.... particularly if you're someone of the fussy persuasion. It's fine for me - but it could be just a smidge cleaner though that section to satisfy those really fussy folk. Other than that we are talking an excellent clean player. Just that one section on Side 1, really. The remaining 90% is clean and fab. A couple of isolated ticks on side 1. Should be fine for most. We can add in a black inner if you'd like one...please ask.
Cover (Vg+) Really well preserved. Front looks really good with some light surface scuffing/handling signs at the opening edge. The rear is looking good too. Some slight edge wear in places - and has been tidied up with sharpie. But it is looking pretty dapper! The interior is looking superb. Spine is above average. 
Inner (Vg+) some ageing.
