Description
THE COOL MIKADO: JOHN BARRY: RARE UK PARLOPHONE LP!
One of the scarcest and most difficult John Barry items! This is the original UK Parlophone issue (PMC 1194) of the soundtrack to this Michael Winner picture, featuring Frankie Howerd, Dennis Price, Tommy Cooper etc. The John Barry Seven appear on side 2 performing the “Tit-Willow Twist”!
The vinyl is near mint. The front of the sleeve, the spine, and the edges, are also in lovely near mint condition. However there is some discolouration to the back of the sleeve, so the overall grade for the sleeve is “excellent”.
SHIPPING - ALL PRICES IN GBP:
I have looked around to try and find the best deals on shipping, and I can offer some very cheap shipping rates as I have sourced a very cheap European road-based service that will transport up to 30kg (about 100LPs) for one low price, and a similar service for the UK. Please see the table below.
Here are the rates if you only want a few records. Please note I combine shipping costs wherever possible (all prices in GBP):
Number of discs: 1 2 3 4 5 6
UK 3.00 4.00 5.00 5.00 8.00 8.00

For boxed sets, or sets including booklets, it is sometimes necessary to charge £1-£2 extra.

Guide to grading:
Mint: as new – might even be unplayed. Without blemish of any kind – no sounding or non-sounding marks, quiet surface, no groove damage, sleeve will be immaculate with sharp edges, and without creasing, writing, or difficult-to-remove stickers. I use this grading only rarely!
Near mint: virtually as new – at worst one or two small, very light non-sounding marks, or a few spindle marks. Definitely no audible marks – aurally, the LP should be superb with no groove damage and a quiet playing surface. It is possible the sleeve may have a few very tiny creases on the spine, or slight ‘browning’ – for details see individual listings.
Excellent: There may be some very light background surface noise, or a few surface marks. Again, there should be no audible marks unless specified in the listing. The sleeve may have very light creasing, or slight discolouration, but still be overall in very nice condition.
Very good: this LP will have audible imperfections such as scattered ticks, or an audible mark or marks. There are also likely to be visual imperfections such as light scuffs, or slight damage to the sleeve – e.g. break-through on the spine, or perhaps damage to the laminated surface of the sleeve. Again, please see individual listings for details.
Please note: The use of a plus (+) or minus (-) sign, e.g. "ex+" or "vg-", means slightly better or worse than the indicated grade
