Description




e © AP6.0

Hello everyone who was watching this record and I know there was quite a few. I just had to end it early and relist it as I spotted  one faint hairline that I had not seen before. Because of this I have had to relist with a modified descripton. Thanks

Mega rare 1977 Jamaican 1st pressing of The Congoes 'Heart Of The Congos' on Black Art. Produced by Lee Perry and rated as one of the greatest roots reggae records ever.

Sleeve is VG++ with mild speckling and faint sticker mark on front, nothing else apart from this.

Labels are mint!

Vinyl is mint minus. I can only spot one very faint hairline mark on this otherwise gleaming vinyl and it appears to have never been played!

 The matrix is KLP005A/KLP005B.  Also has 'CONGOS' etched on one side and 'SCIENTIST' on the other.

Check out my other music items!

If you feel I have misgraded a record please contact me. If your comments are fair I will refund the item if its returned to me within 14 days of it reaching you. Happy ebaying! David

Someone has contacted me to say that there is an early version with green painting on front. Im not aware of this one but anyway. The item is there for you all to see and the matrix is as stated and the pressing is Jamaican. Anymore info about an earlier one would be much appreciated. Thanks
