Description
HERE IS THE NOW VERY SCARCE US ’HALF SPEED MASTERED’ VINYL PRESSING OF KING CRIMSON’S ’RED’ ALBUM.
THIS WAS ONLY A LIMITED PRESSING OF THIS AUDIOPHILE VINYL VERSION. I BOUGHT IT FROM AN IMPORT SHOP IN MANCHESTER (YANKS RECORDS) SOMETIME DURING THE EARLY 1980’S.
I PLAYED IT ONCE AND THEN REALISED THAT 'KING CRIMSON' WASN'T REALLY FOR ME. I DON'T KNOW A LOT ABOUT HOW MANY WERE RELEASED, ETC.
THE COVER HAS A ROUND GOLD STICKER ATTACHED THAT AROUND THE TOP EDGE SAYS:-
’EDITIONS E.G.’
’HALF SPEED MASTERED’
’COLLECTORS’ EDITION’
ON THE RECORD LABEL IT SAYS 'EDITIONS EG’ ’COLLECTORS’ EDITION’, TOWARDS THE TOP, AND ALONG THE BOTTOM SAYS ’MARKETED BY JEM RECORDS INC. SOUTGH PLAINFIELD, NJRESEDA. CA91335. MADE IN USA. (I'M SORRY I JUST CAN'T SEEM TO GET A CLEAR PICTURE OF IT CLOSE-UP - SEE PICTURE 3)
THE CATALOGUE NUMBER IS:- EGKC 8
I’VE ALWAYS STORED THIS ALBUM IN A THICK PLASTIC COVER SO THE COVER IN ‘EXCELLENT+’ CONDITION APART FROM 4 OR 5 FAINT SMALL SURFACE CREASES ALONG THE TOP EDGE OF THE FRONT COVER AND A SIMILAR NUMBER OF HORIZONTAL ONES DOWN THE LEFT HAND SIDE. THEY RANGE FROM LESS THAN A QUARTER OF AN INCH TO HALF AN INCH LONG. AS YOU CAN SEE FROM THE PICTURE THESE AREN’T VERY VISIBLE. THE WHITE MARK AT THE BOTTOM OF THE RECORD ON THIS PICTURE, IS JUST A RELFLECTION OF THE LIGHT, AND NOT PRESENT ON THE ACTUAL COVER.
THE BACK OF THE COVER HAS ONLY 3 OR 4 SIMILAR LIGHT SURFACE CREASES THAT AGAIN ARE NOT VERY VISIBLE. THE TOP LEFT HAND CORNER OF THE SLEEVE HAS A BIT OF A DINK WHICH AS YOU SEE FROM THE PICTURES IS MORE VISIBLE ON THE BACK COVER.
I HAVE ONLY PLAYED THIS ALBUM ONCE MANY YEARS AGO, ON A GOOD TURNTABLE, SO THE RECORD IS IN MINT CONDITION.
THE ALBUM WILL BE PACKAGED IN A NEW STURDY CRUCI-FORM CARDBOARD MAILING CASE TO ENSURE THAT IT REACHES THE WINNING BIDDER IN THE SAME CONDITION THAT IT LEFT ME, AND SHIPPED AT COST, WITH NO HIDDEN EXTRA CHARGES.
I WILL GLADLY SHIP WORLDWIDE, BUT I WILL ONLY POST OVERSEAS USING ADEQUATE INSURANCE. PLEASE ENQUIRE ABOUT OVERSEAS POSTAL CHARGES THEY WILL BE REASONABLE.
I WILL COMBINE SHIPPING FOR MULTIPLE ITEMS. PLEASE WAIT FOR ME TO SEND AN INVOICE IF YOU WIN MORE THAN ONE OF MY ITEMS WITHIN A WEEK OF THEM FINISHING.
I WILL ACCEPT CHEQUES BUT ONLY FROM UK BIDDERS.
