Their Satanic Majesties Request

Decca UK 1967

TXS.103   

 MACHINE STAMPED MATRICES!!!

 EX+ 1st UK STEREO pressing of their psychedelic opus dates from this album's initial release in December 1967. The disc bears 'deep-groove' green & silver Decca labels: TXS.103

Matrix numbers: ZAL-8126-T2-6K & ZAL-8127-T2-7K.

Sensational sound quality, NO skips or jumps. NO clicks,  NO crackle and static can at times only be heard at quieter passages (there are not too many!!) and in the silent grooves between the tracks. This is really a stunning heavy vinyl with a beautiful deep gloss. This vinyl has barely been played!!!  There is just 1 hairline. The audio is totally flawless, it is not often that one finds a collectable album in such immaculate condition. Don't be mistaken, this is a stunning quality vinyl, worthy of inclusion into a great 60's collection!!! Inspected under an intense lightsource and angled.

On the bottom of this edge there is a bit of clear tape.

I have played this in FULL> The replay is ASTOUNDING!!! I first played for a general listen and a second time for a more in-depth observation. Of course there are NO skips, jumps, clicks or sticks. Unbelievably as it may sound there is not any  background noise at all. Impossible to find for this 1967 vinyl!!!    I played this on my Technics turntable with a Linn cartridge, a Rotel amp and through my very revealing B&W three way speakers!!!

Vinyl: A stunning EX+. This has the ridge near the label indicating the earliest superheavy vinyl. This ridge can be observed on the pictures of the labels.

Visual: 1. EX+  2. NM

Both deep-glossy playing surfaces are remarkably 'as new', with the only blemish from keeping side 1 'NM' being a very light 5cm fingernail hairline which is non-feelable and does not affect sound or play in any way. Close examination of both sides directly beneath my unforgiving, powerful halogen desk lamp reveal just a sparkling rainbow shine and not even a single wispy paper hairlines. Both sides of this amazing copy lie 100% flat on the turntable when playing. You will not find a better example.

Play: NEAR MINT

This perfect sounding copy received less than a handful of extremely careful plays on high-end equipment by its one previous audiophile owner. My careful play-check detected not a trace of audible wear of any description throughout, and I am happy and confident to describe the sound as flawless. You will not need or possibly be able to find a better copy of this pressing.A grade I hardly ever use.This is a fantastic final upgrade. This is a seriously desirable album and very rare in this stunning condition!!! For all my regulars in Italy, Russia, Japan and the States, you know who you are, it does not get much better than this. This is golddust!! 

     Gatefold sleeve: EX.  A fully laminated Robert Stace sleeve. This has the very first HOLO picture made with the very first ever camera able to capture this. The colours are glorious. No creases apart from the tiny "mini" underlaminate ones which even new albums have.  The spine is fully legible and as new, deadstraight!!! The inside gatefold is immaculate. NO writing NO  creases and NO smudges. The only thing keeping it from a higher grade is the bit of clear tape near the bottom edge. It will be very hard to find a better sleeve!!

 The LP comes in its original "red smoke" inner  sleeve !! It has only one small side seamsplit and a tiny top tear.

This is a unique investment opportunity!!! Finding this album in any condition at all is nearly impossible, LEAVE ALONE IN THIS STUNNING EX+/EX  CONDITION!!! It is indeed very late in the day for this stunner!!!!!

Labels are EX, beautiful!!  This looks BARELY PLAYED!!

Important :International postage will be registered and insured .  The album will be fully insured. Please wait for my invoice in this case. Postage will be according to Royal Mail rates. Postage is NOT a money spinning exercise for me.

Though there are rarely ever any problems with my items, I always try my very best to describe everything exactly!  PLEASE REMEMBER to contact me FIRST,  if you have any problems at all, before you leave feedback and star ratings, so I get a chance to turn any negative experience into a positive one!  I can always happily sort anything out for you, if you let me know you have a problem!  This way no one has to leave Negative/Neutral feedback - and we both walk away happy! Similarly with the amount of stars, anything less than a full 5 * rating is effectively detrimental to a seller's rating as lower ratings will incur higher Final Value Fees  and lower priority in the bidlists eventually making it unattractive to list items on Ebay at all. I know of at least one major previous Ebay seller who has decided not to list via Ebay again. Please do NOT bid if you cannot give me at least 1 chance to sort everything out to your FULL satisfaction in the unlikely event of a problem.  Thanks again!!

This an excellent investment opportunity!!! Any questions please ask me and I will try to answer soon.
