SIMON & GARFUNKEL

"BOOKENDS" 1968 US ORIGINAL MONO COLUMBIA KCL-2729 !

INCREDIBLY RARE US STOCK COPY MONO SIMON & GARFUNKEL CLASSIC! THIS IS A MUCH LOUDER, MORE PUNCHY VERSION OF THE FAMILIAR ALBUM, WHICH IS OF COURSE LOADED WITH WHAT ARE NOW 60'S CLASSICS.

THIS COPY HAS SUPERFICIAL PLAY WEAR AND SOME OBVIOUS MARKS DESCRIBED BELOW. BUT THE VINYL STILL HAS MUCH OF IT'S SHINE. WE HAVE PLAYED THIS ALL THE WAY THROUGH AND IT HAS GENERAL BACKGROUND SURFACE NOISE AS IT SITS, BUT I DO NOT HAVE A VPI OR NITTY GRITTY. FROM THE VISUAL APPEARANCE AND THE TYPE OF SURFACE NOISE, WHICH DOES NOT INCLUDE ANY SOUND DISTORTION OR ANY EVIDENCE OF AUDIBLE GROOVE WEAR, I THINK IF YOU GIVE THIS A GOOD PROPER VPI CLEANING A LOT OF THIS BACKGROUND NOISE WILL GO AWAY. IT PLAYS FINE AS IS WITH VARYING DEGREE OF GENERAL BACKGROUND NOISE, BUT YOU WILL LIKELY FIND A GEM AFTER CLEANING.

MATRIX NUMBERS: XLP-118885-1B - XLP-118886-1B

CONDITION DETAILS:

SIDE 1 HAS SOME SMALL SUPERFICIAL MARKS, LIGHT PLAY WEAR, A FEW LIGHT HAIRLINES
SIDE 2 HAS 3 QUITE OBVIOUS BUT SUPERFICIAL SCUFFS, 2 SHORTER, ONE LONG, AND THE SAME OTHER SORT OF PLAY WEAR ETC AS SIDE 1. THESE MARKS DO NOT AFFECT PLAYABILITY
BACK COVER HAS LIGHT SHELF SOIL AND A NAME IN PEN AT THE UPPER RIGHT BY THE MONO STOCK NUMBER
FRONT COVER HAS LIGHT GENERAL SHELF WEAR AND OBVIOUS WEAR RING
NO WRITING, NO STICKERS ON LABELS OR COVER
LABELS ARE NICE AND CLEAN WITH ALMOST ZERO SPINDLE TRAILS VISIBLE
HEAVY DUTY FULL SIZED POSTER IS NICE & CLEAN, NOT SPLIT, NO PIN HOLES OR WEAR
