Description

BRIDGE... a dead easy find right?
Nope - a decent copy is way harder to find than you might imagine.<<<
An original 1st press of BOTW on UK CBS from 1970. Matrix A2/B1. Very nice heavy-set vinyl unlike a lot of the later copies. The vinyl comes housed in an original heavy-card cover with front lamination. Well worth insisting on these 1st issues they really do feel a lot more substantial than later copies. We also have a CBS advertising inner sleeve too. So, 100% genuine and 100% complete.
Vinyl (Ex) In marvellous condition and has only seen light careful use. This copy has not been hammered  to death the vast majority of copies out there. Under close inspection I can only make out a couple of very light marks per side - nothing heavy or likely to feature in the audio. A thorough testing from beginning to end reveals an, at least, EXCELLENT level of playback with one slight deviation. That might not sound all that impressive - but believe me when I say that, on this title, that's a minor miracle. Lush rich clean audio throughout. Apart from being one of the defining albums of the seventies CBS did a fantastic job on the audio. Shame that most folks won't really get hear the full gamut. But on an original 1st copy that plays clean - you can start to witness just how darn good this album was [in all aspects]. A clean player throughout - barely any background. All I could make out were a couple of very slight [background] ticks in 'Boxer'. That was it really. Clean into the slow builds. It has energy for the full-on sections, but the dexterity to deliver the intricate moments too. This copy is basically acing it all round.
Cover (Ex-) Again, more difficult than you might at first realise to find in decent condition. The lamination always helps and that is true here - nice lush presentation of colours. A few thumbnails over toward the opening. A nice clean and unaged rear - real nice. Very little edge wear. A decent spine with all text fully legible. Just a small knock right at the top [no big deal]. Overall the cover retains excellent rigidity.
Inner (Vg) Aged, but no splits.
