 TEA & SYMPHONY - 

AN ASYLUM FOR THE MUSICALLY INSANE

first press matrices 

1st UK PRESS 

SHVL 761

1969


Very, very hard to find progressive heavy psych/folk album in the vein of Forest, Nick Drake, Comus, Fairport etc.  A nice quality psych album with really strong exciting tracks. 

THE SUPREME VINYL PLAYS GREAT ALL THE WAY THROUGH BOTH SIDES.

THE STEREO REPRODUCTION IS SUPERB AND EVERY NOTE IS HEARD CLEARLY AND CRISPLY WITHOUT DISTORTION.  NEEDLESS TO SAY, NO STICKS OR JUMPS!


 IT WILL BE A LONG TIME BEFORE THIS TURNS UP AGAIN WITH AGAIN MORE TAKERS THAN EVER BEFORE. THIS IS AN EXCELLENT INVESTMENT PIECE.



Vinyl: EX+. A sublime vinyl with fantastic sound reproduction. Barely played and well cared for album and a fantastic upgrade for this ultra collectable title. No marks, and just one or two ultra wispy hairlines, still looks gleaming and glossy. First press matrices and mother stampers. I have played this in full on my premium sound system (LINN SONDEK, B&W, ARCAM) and the stereo sound is still supreme and this plays with strong gusto. NO skips, jumps crackle etc. This will be a fantastic item  for most long time psych/blues/prog collectors! A true upgrade.

 Sleeve: EX/NM. Matt and very vulnerable sleeve but this is on of the very best kept ever seen. The spine  and edges are 100% . A nice super crisp opening. The colours are still as vivid as first bought. This is a super rare album and only the second ever I have come across as an original first press. An upgrade for most collectors this album barely ever comes up in this formidable condition. Please have a close look at the pictures.

One small discreet name on label side 2 as can be seen on the picture. I have often found that records with the owner's name on it have been looked after very well and such is the case with this formidable album.

This is a unique investment opportunity!!! The next psych album to go completely through the roof. 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 45.00.  Please wait for my invoice before paying. Postage will be according to Royal Mail rates. Postage is NOT a money spinning exercise 

 

 

This an excellent investment opportunity!!! Any questins please ask me and I will try to answer soon.

 

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!!
