The Rolling Stones
Beggars Banquet
Original 1968 Decca release
SLK 4955
In stunning condition.
Vinyl surfaces reflect a mirror like sheen similar to mint vinyl. Visual grading near mint as vinyl surfaces appear scratch free!! A beautiful record almost impossible to locate in this sensational condition .Thicker quality vinyl with wider grooves to convey that extra loud cut delivery which later reissues fail to give . Virtually UN marked surfaces and a near mint visual !!
Labels
Rich deep, navy blue, open/ unboxed Decca label format showing the faintest of spindle traces. Very close to mint and extremely rare with hardly any visual deterioration .One /two spider lines ONLY observed!!! Silver text boldly printed ,reflecting a stunning label text in perfect order. Labels portray no lifting, no mottling or peeling of any kind! Breathtaking appearance and very rare in this condition. A huge selling Stones release which looks hardly played…lightly handled….a collectors’ dream…

Mother stampers show 1 on each side showing that this vinyl was one of the earliest pressings, incredible find !
Audio
The best part of this record without a doubt . Audio channels hardly disturbed over the years and are quite awesome as you hear the clarity of these grooves. Never heard an audio quite like this one as tones are dynamic, conveying the full dimension of the stereo perspective .NO hisses…NO crackles…NO distortion… Guitar strings like crystal glass, each pluck heard in sensational style…unbelievable audio delivery. Absolutely beautiful imagery conveyed from one of the Stones best ever album releases. One slight blip on sound which is hardly noticeable but need you to know . There is a faint tick at start of side 2 on the intro caused by a hairline on run in grooves but insignificant really . One of the best aural deliveries ever heard from this monumental album release .
Patents blue and white checkered inner sleeve in excellent+ condition.
Sleeve
Be careful with this gatefold as there is little difference between the original and the later presses. This is THE true original as it is Garrod & Lofthouse printed with the mega rare patents pending credit which is not found on the later issues. A stunning, fully laminated, opening gatefold sleeve on front/reverse covers. The glossy laminate has no lifting and only boasts two or three tiny splits along the vertical spinal edge and what a vision spectacular ! Only fault detected is a slight split on top edge of spine and the slightest of rubs on the corner tips. Gold edges show NO signs of wear at all. Gorgeous creamy coloration with laminated surfaces ultra clean and smooth to the touch. Would grade excellent + considering its longevity and is in beautiful condition.
Summary
A very first Stereo press of a much sought after Stones classic. Pure investment quality and in sensational condition . A near mint- vinyl with immaculate open Decca labels, surfaces reflecting a mirror like sheen and unbelievable audio channels, delivering this monumental Stones’classic through near silent grooves!!!!!!!!
What a record and oh so scarce in this awesome condition.
Absolutely stunning!
