Pink Floyd - 'Meddle' 

Harvest - SHVL 795 - UK 1971

Vinyl/Sleeve: VG+/EX

Matrix: (a) SHVL 795 A-4    

             (b) SHVL 795 B-3

Vinyl: Very Good +  

This record has been machine cleaned and play checked. It's an early version with 'Gramophone' rim text. Playback is generally excellent with a little surface noise here and there including some underlying faint tics near the end of track two and some moments of light crackle during quiet passages - but nothing that is intrusive. The playing surface is bright and clean with just a fine hairline on side one.      

Sleeve: Excellent  

The gatefold sleeve is in great condition. This is the textured version (but smooth on the inside) without 'patents pending' printed on the inside below the Harvest logo. The sleeve is borderline near mint - solid with a sharp spine and no edge or ring wear. There is just the trace of an old sticker mark on the top right hand side which hasn't damaged the sleeve, but has left a 'shadow' which you can't really see unless you angle it towards the light. 

Side One:  One Of These Days / A Pillow Of Winds / Fearless / San Tropez / Seamus        

Side Two:  Echoes       

Combined postage offered to UK destinations ONLY. I'll send an invoice if you've bought more than one record.

NON-UK shipping - NO COMBINED POSTAGE - International shipping is with eBay's Global Shipping Program (GSP) and combined postage is not available. It may appear expensive, and delivery may take a few extra days, but I'm sorry, it's the only international shipping option I offer.

A few words on Vinyl Grades.........

My vinyl grades are pretty much in line with those commonly used here on eBay and other specialist vinyl sites. The descriptions I provide are of equal significance as they will include any details I would consider useful to know when deciding whether to purchase a vinyl record. I normally examine a record’s playing surface in more than one daylight condition, this is because the lighting at different times of day tend to reveal details that might not be noticeable at other times of day. For example, bright angled morning light shining through a window will reveal a multitude of fine lines and dust that are often superficial, and these can distract from significant surface imperfections which might be more noticeable later in the day. Sleeve grades shouldn't really require an explanation, needless to say, the photos and descriptions should speak for themselves.    

Mint (M) : Never played, and the only way you can be fairly confident that it hasn’t been played, is if the record is still sealed (and that’s not foolproof).

Near Mint (NM) : A record that shows hardly any evidence of being played – both in appearance and sound quality.

Excellent (EX) : A record that may have minor surface marks and/or minimal surface noise or tics.

Very Good + (VG+) : The record will be close to excellent but may have some distinct marks or hairlines that may even be feelable - but not to excess. Sound quality may be slightly impaired with light surface noise/crackle or tics.

Very Good (VG) : The record will have several marks or scratches, and/or sound quality that isn’t that great

Good+ (G+) : This will be a record that has many surface marks or scratches and poor sound quality. I wouldn’t normally sell anything that would grade below this (ie ‘good’ or ‘acceptable’). Anything below this grade would probably have skips and I rarely sell records that have skips.
