Description


The Michael Garrick Sextet with Norma Winstone
'The Heart is a Lotus'
This record is an original 'RARE' 1st pressing and comes  with 5 signatures on the rear sleeve which are :-
1.Michael Garrick Jan 1974 Leeds 2.Art Theman        3.Trevor Tomkins 4.Dave Green 5.Henry Lowther (who was probably drafted in to replace Ian Carr )

I did some research and they were indeed on tour at  that time and I managed to find a newspaper article of a concert in Newcastle on Friday 1/2/1974 so it gives  the signatures some sort of provenance.I will try and  post the pictures of the article ASAP The Concert was at The Wallsend Arts Centre and the article was in the Courier (a student paper)
Please see the condition description for grading of record and sleeve
(please see the attached photos)


Welcome to my record auctions !! 
Many records are from my own personal collection and currently some from a neighbour which I am selling on their behalf.
Each record has been cleaned twice each side on a Project VC-S MK II record cleaning machine using Mobile Fidelity cleaning products.After cleaning they are placed in new anti-static inner  sleeves and a new protective outer cover.
The wet clean vacuuming process makes a huge difference as it  reduces dust,surface marks(not scratches) and significantly reduces  background noise to give a much improved soundstage.
Most of my records are original/early pressings which in my  opinion sound far superior to modern pressings.
A word about hairline marks and light scratches.It is almost impossible to find an older non sealed record without some marks  as many records had them from new as a result of the inners that they were placed in.
Many records also have background noise which varies  according to the quality of the original pressing.I will endeavour to list any faults etc in all of my listings.
I also try to listen to most records or at least parts of tracks after  cleaning to assess the sound quality and my two turntables are  vintage (30 yrs old) Bang & Olufsen which both are serviced  regularly and have superior B&O cartridges fitted.
I take the grading seriously and will usually undergrade as everyone's idea of grading is totally different and very subjective.
