Description

Original 1st UK pressing on Harvest SHVL 755
Matrix shows stampers A-1 and B-2 confirming this is a true first pressing.
Glorious analogue sound impossible to recreate from re-issues or CD versions.
Record is Mint- and has hardly been played.
Sleeve in Ex+ condition, no damages, just slight wear and a record shop sticker on the inside lower left corner.
This record has been in my personal collection during the past 30 years and has only been played on my Rega P25 high-end turntable.
This is a true rarity, not just the album itself, but in being made available in this great state.
