THIS IS 'SIMON DUPREE AND THE BIG SOUND' WHO WERE A PSYCHEDELIC BAND FROM PORTSMOUTH ENGLAND, FORMED IN 1966 BY BROTHERS, DEREK, PHIL AND RAY SHULMAN, WHO LATER FORMED PROG ROCK BAND, 'GENTLE GIANT' !!!! THIS IS THEIR ONE AND ONLY STUDIO ALBUM, RELEASED IN AUGUST 1967, AND REALLY IS A CLASSIC 60's SOUND ALBUM THAT YOU WILL ENJOY, AND IT COMES FROM MY   TREASURED PERSONAL VINYL COLLECTION !!!!
DISCLAIMER :: ALL MY LP'S LISTED ON THIS SITE ARE ORIGINAL AND NOT FAKE OR COUNTERFEIT, AND ARE SOLD IN GOOD FAITH. THEY WERE BOUGHT ON THE DATE OF ISSUE. THANK YOU !!

THIS IS AN ORIGINAL 1967 UK 1ST PRESS  ::  XEX-639-1  ::   XEX 640-1 .
PRESSED OFF THE FIRST MOTHER AND FIRST STAMPERS  ::  1 G  ::  1 G .
'THE GRAMOPHONE CO LTD' RIM TEXT .
'SOLD IN THE UK SUBJECT TO RESALE' LABEL TEXT .
ON THE BLACK AND YELLOW 1ST PRESS PARLOPHONE  LABEL  ::  PMC 7029 .

COVER ::  ORIGINAL 1ST PRESS MONO FRONT LAMINATED FLIPBACK, PRINTED AND MADE BY GARROD & LOFTHOUSE PATENTS PENDING, IN LOVELY CONDITION, WITH BEAUTIFUL SPINE AND EDGES, WITH NO ISSUES, AND THE OPENING EDGE IS STILL SHARP. LOVELY LAMINATE, JUST A FEW SMALL LAMINATE CREASE LINES AROUND THE EDGES, AND A COUPLE OF LONGER ONES DOWN THE SPINE SIDE EDGE. THE BACK IS CLEAN, BUT DOES HAVE SOME AGEING AS SEEN IN THE PHOTOS, AND WITH NOTHING ELSE I WOULD GRADE  :: EX- .   

VINYL  ::  THE VINYL PLAYS VERY WELL, WHICH WILL BE EXPLAINED BELOW.

VISUALLY, UNDER BRIGHT LIGHT THERE ARE LOTS OF HARMLESS COSMETICS, SO QUITE A FEW COSMETIC SLEEVE REMOVAL SPIDER WEB THREAD ULTRA FINE LINES, AND QUITE A FEW VARIOUS COSMETIC HAIRLINES, AND THESE JUST HAVE A VISUAL EFFECT UNDER BRIGHT LIGHT, AS WHEN ANGLED AWAY FROM BRIGHT LIGHT THEY DISAPPEAR, SO ALWAYS A GOOD SIGN THERE IS NOTHING NASTY, SO IF YOU ARE OKAY WITH THE VISUAL SIDE OF THINGS, YOU ARE GOING TO ENJOY THE AUDIO !!!!

THERE ARE NO STICKS, SKIPS, JUMPS, CRACKLE, POPS OR CLICKS, AND DUE TO HOW COLLECTABLE THIS MONO VINYL IS I WILL DO A TRACK BY TRACK AUDIO DESCRIPTION .....

SIDE 1  ::  TRACK 1 ::  PLAYS FINE WITH NOTHING TO MENTION, JUST A SINGLE FAINT TICK AFTER THE START .

 TRACK 2 :: TWO FAINT TICKS TOWARDS THE END .

 TRACK 3 :: PLAYS FINE WITH NOTHING TO MENTION .

 TRACK 4 :: ONE SINGLE FAINT TICK IN THE MIDDLE .

THERE ARE FOUR TICKS BETWEEN TRACKS .

 TRACK 5 :: PLAYS FINE WITH NOTHING TO MENTION, JUST A BIT OF FAINT STATIC, AT THE VERY END INTO THE RUN OFFS .

SIDE 2 ::  TRACK 1 :: PLAYS FINE WITH NOTHING TO MENTION .

TRACK 2 :: PLAYS FINE WITH NOTHING TO MENTION, JUST A FAINT TICK AT THE END .

TRACK 3 ::  PLAYS FINE WITH NOTHING TO MENTION .

HAS TWO FAINT TICKS BETWEEN TRACKS .

TRACK 4 :: PLAYS FINE WITH NOTHING TO MENTION .

HAS FOUR FAINT TICKS BETWEEEN TRACKS .

 TRACK 5 :: PLAYS FINE WITH NOTHING TO MENTION .

TWO FAINT TICKS BETWEEN TRACKS .

TRACK 6 :: PLAYS FINE WITH NOTHING TO MENTION .

SO NOT A LOT REALLY GOING ON, AND CERTAINLY NOTHING NASTY OR INTRUSIVE, AND WITH NOTHING ELSE, I WOULD GRADE THE AUDIO   ::  EX/EX- .

LABELS  ::  NICE AND CLEAN, JUST SOME SPINDLE LINES AT THE CENTRE  :: EX .

ORIGINAL POLYLINED INNER :: NO SPLITS, OR WRITING, BUT THERE HAS BEEN A SEAM SLIT THE FULL LENGTH ON ONE SIDE, NOW REPAIRED WITH CELLO TAPE, AND THE VINYL WILL COME IN A NEW POLYLINED INNER ALONG WITH THE ORIGINAL, SO I WOULD GRADE  ::  VG- . 

REALLY GREAT ALBUM, AND THE EARLIEST MONO UK 1ST PRESS, WITH FIRST MOTHER AND FIRST STAMPERS, 1G / 1G. PLAYS AS DESCRIBED, AND A VERY HARD ALBUM TO FIND ON UK 1ST PRESS VINYL AND COVER !!!! ROSE .
