Description

SPRING "SPRING" VERY RARE ALBUM

Released in 1971 on the RCA " NEON " NE 6 LABEL stereo.

Condition:- EXCELLENT +

I bought this Album the week it was released in 1971. This is getting to be a real Vinyl
collectors sort after item. It was played at that time on a high quality turntable (Thorens
125 turntable SME arm with Shure V15 cartridge) The Album was always cleaned with
   a high quality cleaner. I am not a record dealer and never have been, I am just selling off
   my own private Album collection, which I started in 1964. The LP has been stored in a
                     plastic outer sleeve for protection. This Album has only been handled by myself and never
                     left my house.

                                                                      2. Grail.
                                                                      3. Boats.
                                                                      4. Shipwrecked Soldier.

                                               SIDE 2. Matrix no. AGBS 0522-B-1

                                                           Track 1. Golden Fleece.
                                                                      2. Inside Out.
                                                                      3. Songs to Absent Friends (The Island)
                                                                      4. Gazing.

                                                               THE COVER

                   The COVER is in EXCELLENT + condition. It is a VERY UNIQUE 3 SIDED FOLD OUT
                   SLEEVE. The COVER is VERY CLEAN without creases. The 4 CORNERS are FIRM
                   and TRUE, except the bottom left and right corners of the FRONT COVER have 2 light
                   scuff marks. INSIDE the FOLDS it is VERY CLEAN except for 2 very small white spots,
                   where the COVER has got stuck together from being stored for 37 years... The SPINE
                   is VERY CRISP and SHARP, except for a light scuff mark at the bottom edge of the spine.
                   There is a slight fade on the top right hand corner of the front cover, just by the RCA lettering.

                                                                      THE VINYL

                   The VINYL is in EXCELLENT + condition. The surface has a MIRROR finish. There are
                   no scratches and no finger marks The LABEL looks like NEW, it's so CLEAN and SHARP
                   and there are no SPINDLE marks whatsoever. The SOUND quality is SUPERB, it plays
                   BEAUTIFULLY throughout. There are the occasional light pops and crackles as most
                   Albums of this age have, but this in no way detracts from the quality of the music. The TEST
                   PLAY was on my REGA PLANAR 3 turntable with ORTOFON cartridge which sounded
                   wonderful for an Album that is 37 years old.

                                    If you have any questions please feel free to email me.

                     PEDRO'S VINYL

                   I have been collecting Albums since 1964 and have amassed a fantastic collection of rare
                   LPs. I recently made the traumatic decision to sell off my collection to finance other ventures.
                   I"ve always been obsessive about playing my LPs on the best audio equipment. I have always
                   stored every Album in specially made LP units to keep them free from dust and heat. Thank
                   you for looking and good luck with your bidding, PEDRO.
