***
HERE IS A SUPERB COPY OF THIS LEGENDARY STONES ALBUM, THEIR FOURTH AND THE FIRST WITH ALL TRACKS WRITTEN BY THE BAND. AT FIRST GLANCE THIS LOOKS LIKE A FIRST PRESSING HOWEVER :
THIS COPY DATES FROM 1968/69, IDENTIFIED BY THE NON-GROOVED LABELS AND THE COVER. DECCA STOPPED PRESSING THEIR LPS WITH THE GROOVE IN 1968, THE LAST STONES ALBUM TO FEATURE IT BEING " BETWEEN THE BUTTONS " IN 1967. ALSO THIS COPY COMES IN A HIGH GLOSS COVER, STILL PRINTED BY ROBERT STACE BUT WITHOUT THE FINE TEXTURING SEEN ON THE EARLIER COVERS.
SO THIS IS A RARE ITEM , POSSIBLY RARER THAN THE ORIGINAL STEREO PRESSINGS, WHO KNOWS?
ANYWAY THIS IS A BRILLIANT COPY AND WITH NO RESERVE AND A LOW START PRICE.
THERE ARE NO OBVIOUS MARKS ON THE VINYL SURFACES. JUST THE ODD TINY WHISPY MARK SEEN UNDER BRIGHT LIGHT. IT HAS A WONDERFUL SHINE. LOVELY BLUE / SILVER LABELS WITH JUST A TINY HINT OF A SPINDLE TRAIL ON EACH. HAVE LISTENED CLOSELY TO THE DISC IN IT'S ENTIRETY AND THERE IS VERY LITTLE TO FAULT. IT HAS BEEN CAREFULLY AND RARELY PLAYED . THE VERY OCCASIONAL LIGHT POP AND A LITTLE BARELY AUDIBLE RUSTLE BETWEEN TRACKS IS ALL I DETECTED ON A HIGH QUALITY SYSTEM. THE SOUND IS CRYSTAL CLEAR , SUPERB SOUNDING DISC THAT WILL NOT DISAPPOINT.
VISUAL GRADING FOR DISCS IS EXCELLENT +
AUDIO GRADING FOR DISCS IS EXCELLENT +
THE ORIGINAL POLY-LINED INNER IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION. NO MAJOR FAULTS, JUST SOME CREASING.
THE FRONT LAMINATED COVER HAS A FEW MINOR CREASES, ONE BY THE BOTTOM LEFT CORNER AND A COUPLE NEAR THE OPENING. THE REAR IS REMARKABLY WHITE FOR ITS AGE AND HAS NO DAMAGE . PINCHED SPINE FULLY INTACT. HAVE A LOOK AT THE PICTURES AND YOU'LL SEE THAT THIS COVER HAS VERY LITTLE TO FAULT.
?COVER GRADING IS EXCELLENT
?
I GRADE RECORDS CONSERVATIVELY USING MY INTERPRETATION OF THE RARE RECORD COLLECTOR PRICE GUIDE GRADING SYSTEM. I DO MY BEST TO GIVE ACCURATE ASSESSMENTS BUT AS WE ALL KNOW THE GRADING OF USED VINYL IS VERY MUCH A SUBJECTIVE MATTER. I OFFER A NO QUIBBLE FULL REFUND IF THE WINNING BIDDER WISHES TO RETURN THE ITEM. ALL I ASK IS THAT THE ITEM IS RETURNED IN IT'S ORIGINAL PACKAGING IN THE SAME STATE AS IT WAS SENT WITHIN 14 DAYS OF RECEIPT. I DO NOT GIVE PARTIAL REFUNDS.
POSTAGE WILL BE BY 2ND CLASS SIGNED FOR DELIVERY TO UK AND INTERNATIONAL SIGNED WITH INSURANCE FOR OVERSEAS BUYERS. PLEASE DO NOT PAY UNTIL INVOICED. SORRY BUT I NO LONGER POST TO EASTERN EUROPE, PLEASE SEE POSTAGE EXCLUSIONS.
THE ITEM WILL BE POSTED IN A SOLID BOX MAILER. THIS MEANS THE ITEM WILL REACH YOU IN THE BEST POSSIBLE CONDITION.
THANKS FOR READING AND IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS I WILL DO MY BEST TO ANSWER PROMPTLY.
