Description
This 1st pressing has the earliest possible 1A / 1A matrix endings and comes with the 1st press James Upton sleeve with text on rear of sleeve that is often refered to as blind mans text. Here is the start "If you don't have the bread, see that blind man knock him on the head, steal his wallet and low behold you have the loot" there is more. It was offensive to most people then and that was why it was quickly removed from the cover.

The vinyl plays excellent with superb mono sound quality, it still shines bright and there are no scratches not even mild ones but there are a couple of noticable very light surface marks, also a small pressing imperfection, none of which have any significant effect on sound quality and the grading is played safe. If you want an LP to play this could be the one for you, it is a difficult one to grade and I am playing safe,
please be aware that this LP, although rare is not in the greatest visual condition, there are no seam splits of any kind and the main problems with the cover are it has some creasing and the laminate lifting at the front, otherwise the rear is a bit grubby and tainted in places from not being stored in a plastic sleeve, there are a few nics around the edges but nothing too serious.
This album will make an excellent addition in any collection as a filler especially if you like to play your records,
