Description
Pink Floyd – The Dark Side Of The Moon
Original Australian 1st Stereo Issue, in a Laminated Gatefold Cover. This is the very first Australian issue, and the only Stereo issue from Australia. All subsequent Australian issues from 1974 onward, are all SQ Stereo / Quadraphonic pressings, and only the first Australian issue was Stereo.Although there is no Quadraphonic playback, this first stereo issue does not suffer the same sound loss / compromise that the Australian SQ issues suffer when played on Stereo equipment, so unless you are going to use the Quad pressing on a quad system, the best Australian option is definitely this original first Australian stereo issue.
In superb original condition. The vinyl record is Near Mint The labels are Near Mint The laminated gatefold cover is Excellent
No inserts.
