Description
ARTIST: SKIP BIFFERTY
TITLE: SELF TITLED
LABEL: RCA VICTOR
YEAR: 1969
THIS IS A RARE 1ST PRESSING OF THE ONE AND ONLY ALBUM FROM SKIP BIFFERTY FROM 1967. THIS IS A MONO ALBUM ON RCA VICTOR. THIS THE BLACK LABEL WITH THE RED DOT LOGO. CLOUT & BAKER SLEEVE WITH CLARIFOIL LAMINATE FRONT. MATRIX NUMBERS: WGBL 0029-1K / WGBL 0030-1K.
A NICE SHINEY COPY WHICH, IN THE MAIN, STILL SOUNDS GREAT TODAY. THERE ARE SOME SPINDLE MARKS ON BOTH LABELS SO THE VINYL HAS BEEN PLAYED A NUMBER OF TIMES. IT MUST HAVE BEEN WELL LOOKED AFTER THOUGH AND PLAYED ON GOOD QUALITY EQUIPMENT. HOWEVER THERE IS ONE SMALL MARK ON SIDE 2 WHICH RESULTS IN ABOUT A DOZEN OR SO CLICKS ON EACH OF TRACKS 1 AND 2 OF SIDE 2. THE CLICKS ARE CLEARLY AUDIBLE BUT NOT TOO LOUD. THE ONLY OTHER MARKS ON THE PLAYING SURFACE ARE HAIRLINE AND NOTHING THAT CAN BE FELT. I HAVE PLAYED THE ALBUM RIGHT THROUGH AND, APART FROM THE AFOREMENTIONED CLICKS, IT SOUNDS GREAT. LOUND AND CLEAR. A REAL CRISP SOUND.THERE IS ONLY LIGHT CRACKLE MAINLY IN THE RUN INS, INBETWEEN TRACKS AND ON THE VERY QUIETEST SEQUENCES. BOTH LABELS LOOK PRETTY CLEAN AND TIDY EXCEPT THAT A NAME HAS BEEN WRITTEN IN THE RED DOT ON SIDE 2. I WOULD GRADE THE VINYL SOUND AS VERY GOOD PLUS FOR SIDE 1 BUT ONLY VERY GOOD FOR SIDE 2 BECAUSE OF THOSE CLICKS.
THE SLEEVE HAS SOME GENERAL WEAR BUT NOTHING TOO BAD. THERE IS SOME RINGWEAR BUT NOT TOO MUCH. THERE IS SOME MILD CREASING AND A FEW BREAK LINES IN THE LAMINATE DOWN THE LEFT HAND SIDE. A NAME IS WRITTEN ALONG THE TOP REAR BORDER. GENERAL EDGE AND CORNER WEAR. A DECENT SPINE WHICH CAN BE SEEN IN THE LAST OF THE SCANS. I WOULD GRADE THE SLEEVE AS VERY GOOD.
THERE WAS NO INNER SLEEVE SO THE RECORD HAS BEEN PLACED IN A BRAND NEW WHITE SLEEVE.
LOW STARTING PRICE FOR SUCH A RARITY.
If you look at my recent feedback you may be concerned that I do not appear to sell records. I just wanted to assure anyone that I do have plenty of experience of selling vinyl but I have spent the last few months concentrating on selling a huge collection of cards.
All albums will be removed from their outer sleeves in order to protect the outer sleeves from splitting in transit. In most cases the vinyl will also be placed in a brand new paper sleeve. The record and sleeve will be protected by a plastic sleeve. This will be sent in a strong record mailer including stiffeners either side
In all cases I offer both standard delivery plus recorded delivery in the uk and international signed for postage. However for any purchase over £50 I would recommend that you pay for recorded delivery or international signed for on any purchase over £50 so that it can be tracked. Any additional insurance costs for rarer more expensive items will be met by me.
I have to add in the costs of packaging materials which are considerable for records in comparison with a lot of other media however please be sure that I do not attempt to make extra profit from postage.
YOUR ITEM WILL BE WELL PACKED AND PROTECTED. POSTAGE WILL BE COMBINED FOR MULTIPLE PURCHASES. IF YOU BUY MORE THAN ONE LOT PLEASE WAIT FOR A COMBINED POSTAGE INVOICE FROM ME.
IF YOU ARE UNHAPPY WITH MY DESCRIPTION I WILL OFFER A FULL MONEY BACK GUARANTEE ONCE THE ITEM IS RETURNED TO ME. I WOULD MUCH PREFER YOU CONTACT ME IF YOU ARE UNHAPPY WITH ANYTHING BEFORE POSTING ANY NEGATIVE FEEDBACK AS IT HAS TAKEN A LONG TIME TO BUILD UP MY 100% RATING. MANY THANKS.
I CANNOT BE HELD RESPONSIBLE FOR ITEMS GOING MISSING IN TRANSIT BUT I WILL ALWAYS DO WHATEVER I CAN TO HELP. I ALWAYS GET PROOF OF PURCHASE RECEIPTS. IF YOU WANT FURTHER PROTECTION SUCH AS RECORDED DELIVERY OR INSURANCE THEN PLEASE LET ME KNOW BEFORE YOU PAY AND I WILL SORT THAT OUT IF I AM ABLE. IT IS UNFORTUNATE THAT 'SIGNED FOR' PACKAGES SENT INTERNATIONALLY ARE SO EXPENSIVE.
THANKS FOR LOOKING AND PLEASE FEEL FREE TO ASK QUESTIONS.
