Pink Floyd ?– The Dark Side Of The Moon 1st press UK
Harvest ?– SHVL 804 1E 064 o 05249 A-2/B-2 matrix
Condition -
Cover - VG+ really nice just a little wear. Creasing to bottom left over cover/ottom right of back(see photos)
Vinyl - Side 1 VG+. Just a little crackle in some places. Mainly just in gaps or really quiet spots. Heartbeat build up to opening track has some crackle Side 2- EX . No Jump on Money. A lot of 1st presses of this album have a fault on the pressing which causes the classic "Money" to jump. This version does not. Only extremely light crackle in a couple of spots.
No original Poster and stickers included.
This is the original form of the release, it has solid light blue prism LP picture labels with silver lettering, later forms have an empty prism. It has a gatefold sleeve
There are 2 systems for track numbering on the release. The cover lists the titles A1 to B5 (used in this submission). The labels however number the tracks from (a) to (i) so, for example, "Breathe" is listed as "(a)(II)" on the label but "2" on the cover (see images).
The label has a solid light blue prism. Subsequent pressings have a blue glowing inner edge prism with the centre black.
'The Gramophone Co.' text starts at 10 o'clock on label.
A-2/B-2 matrix stamps appear in the runout area.
Thick heavyweight vinyl believed by some to be the 'finest' and most true encapsulation of this historical recording as the first pressing was pressed direct from the original masterplate.
There is a distinct bluish tint/tinge in the black ink of the cover.
Inner sleeve is a distinctive polythene lined die cut black semi matt paper with white printed text stating 2 patent numbers bottom left [1125555/1072844] and 'MADE IN GREAT BRITAIN' bottom right.
