THIS IS AN EXCELLENT- STEREO UK FIRST PRESSING COPY OF THE 1967 BEATLES CLASSIC "SGT PEPPER'S LONELY HEARTS CLUB BAND" COMPLETE WITH THE ORIGINAL UNDAMAGED RED AND WHITE INNER SLEEVE AND INTACT CUT-OUT CARD.
VINYL: SIDE ONE HAS NO SIGNIFICANT AUDIBLE FAULTS, AND PLAYS WITHOUT SKIPS, STICKS OR LOUD POPS AND NO BACKGROUND NOISE ON THE RUN-IN OR BETWEEN TRACKS. VISUALLY THERE ARE NO SERIOUS MARKS OR SCUFFS, AND THE VINYL STILL HAS A DEEP SHINY LUSTRE. THERE ARE MANY LIGHT PAPER MARKS FROM SLEEVE REMOVAL, BUT THEY HAVE NO IMPACT ON THE AUDIO WHICH IS RICH AND CLEAR. THE VINYL HAS CLEARLY BEEN WELL LOOKED AFTER FOR FIFTY YEARS AND NOT OVERPLAYED.
SIDE TWO IS IN THE SAME CONDITION WITH ONLY VERY LIGHT MARKS AND NOTHING WHICH AFFECTS THE AUDIO.
TO BE ULTRA CRITICAL, THE ONLY AUDIO FAULTS I CAN FIND ARE TWO VERY LIGHT CLICKS BETWEEN "FIXING A HOLE" AND "SHE'S LEAVING HOME" BUT THEY ARE VERY FAINT; AND SOME VERY MINOR CRACKLE AT THE VERY END OF THE FADE-OUT OF "DAY IN THE LIFE".
SLEEVE: THE GARROD AND LOFTHOUSE GATEFOLD SLEEVE IS BRIGHT AND SHINY WITH NO LAMINATE LIFTING ANYWHERE. THE SEAMS ARE ALL INTACT WITH VIRTUALLY NO EDGE WEAR (SEE PHOTOS). THE INNER GATEFOLD IS UNSPOILED WITH BRIGHT VIVID COLOURS, AND FLIPBACKS AT THE TOP. THE SPINE HAS SUFFERED SOME MINOR CRUSHING FROM STORAGE, BUT IS STILL INTACT AND READABLE.
THE SGT PEPPER CUT-OUTS SHEET IS THE ORIGINAL, WITH NO MARKS, WRITING OR DAMAGE AND INCLUDES THE PETER BLAKE SIGNATURE.
THE YELLOW AND BLACK LABELS ARE IN VERY GOOD CONDITION, WITH SIDE TWO BEARING THE "KT" TAX MARK. THERE ARE LIGHT SPINDLE TRACES ON BOTH SIDES BUT NO DAMAGE.
THE INNER SLEEVE IS THE ORIGINAL RED AND WHITE "PSYCHEDELIC" PAPER BAG WITH NO WRITING, CREASING, SPLITS OR TEARS, AND "PATENTS APPLIED FOR" PRINTED ON ONE SIDE. (THE RECORD WILL BE SHIPPED IN A SEPARATE INNER TO PREVENT SEAM SPLITS).
YOU WILL EASILY FIND CHEAPER COPIES OF THIS CLASSIC, BUT FEW FIRST PRESSINGS ARE AS COMPLETE AND UNDAMAGED AFTER ALL THESE YEARS, AND THIS RANKS AMONGST THE BEST I HAVE SEEN FOR SOME TIME.
