STILL LIFE
VERTIGO SWIRL - 6360 026
UK 1st PRESS 1971
This album is in the major league of SWIRL scarcity territory. I have only ever seen it once before. As rare as Linda Hoyle or Catapilla!!
Machined matrices: 1Y//1 2Y//1
A mega rare Swirl album and this is definitely in the TOP 5 rarest Vertigo albums. As rare as Hokus Poke or Linda Hoyle. I am offering this as a Buy It Now. please read carefully through the description below.
Reportedly only about 300 were ever sold. How many would have survived till this day??? This is a major investment piece that will appreciate in years to come.
The absolute rarity of this album is not to be underestimated. It hardly ever surfaces nowadays. This is an absolutely gorgeous slab of early quality VERTIGO vinyl.
SOLE ALBUM OF THIS SUPERBAND THAT HARDLY SOLD AT ALL BUT IS NOW VERY SOUGHT AFTER BY PROG CONNOISEURS
A CLASSIC PROGRESSIVE LP THAT SHOULD BE IN EVERY QUALITY PROG/FOLK COLLECTION - if you cannot buy this you should at least try and get a re-issue and enjoy!
Please, also have a look at my other prog albums on sale this week.
ELUSIVE PROGMONSTER!!!! !!!!AN IMPOSSIBLE FIND!!!Only a few hundred of the LP were ever sold!!! This is SOOOOOOOOOOO very rare!!!!!
BACK IN 1971 WHEN THIS LP WAS FIRST RELEASED, IT ONLY EVER SOLD IN ABSOLUTELY TINY AMOUNTS - AS A RESULT IT IS SERIOUSLY RARE AND INCREDIBLY HARD TO LOCATE TODAY!!!!
****ELUSIVE PROGMONSTER!!!****PERPLEXING SONGCRAFT!!!***AN INSPIRATION TO MANY SUBSEQUENT TOPACTS!!!***
!!!!A VERY HARD FIND!!! Most have been bought up by collectors!! This is hardly offered these days!!
In all my years this is only the first time I have come across this PROGMONSTER. Immensely scarce!!! This sounds fine with a bit of static crackle here and there but mostly overpowered by the strong audio. Inspected under an intense lightsource and angled.
Vinyl: VG to VG+ . A sensational find!!! I have played this in FULL twice over> This plays fine with some static at times but NO skips or jumps!!! I first played for a general listen and a second time for a more detailed observation. Quite a few hairlines can be seen under a strong lightsource. There are NO skips, NO jumps, this plays through fine all the way!
Fantastic songcraft!! A personal favourite of mine and I am very glad to be able to report that this is a fine slab of vinyl without any problems at all apart from some static in places esp. during the quieter sections. Worthy of inclusion of any great prog collection. Of course NO jumps/skips etc.
Sleeve: VG to VG+. Beautiful matt gatefold sleeve. There is one repaired tear near the top (see pic). It has light wear on the edges. the spine is fully legible. One small discreet name on the inside gatefold near the top, not intrusive.
***This is a unique prime investment opportunity!!! Finding this album in any condition at all is nearly impossible!!! The winner will be delighted!!!
This is a great and seriously collectable super album!! You will buy into a piece of prog core history.***
Labels: EX!!!
Inner swirl sleeve: VG+. The original with 01/71 datestamp. Lighly yellowed with age. One side seam split.
This is a unique investment opportunity!!! The next Heavyprog/psych album to go completely through the roof. This has already been sold for 4 FIGURE sums. Finding this album in any condition at all is nearly impossible so late in the day. Get this while you still can. This value of the album is only going to go one way ... up and up ... until it will be totally unavailable at all for a reasonable price.
Important : International postage will be registered and insured if over GBP 41.00. Please wait for my invoice before paying. Returns are accepted but MINUS postage as I feel that I have described all flaws of this magnificent album. This is a once in a lifetime!! 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.
