Description
OVER THE NEXT 3 WEEKS I'LL BE LISTING RECORDS FROM MY PERSONAL COLLECTION. THIS IS MY PRIDE AND JOY COLLECTION OF TOP CONDITION MAINLY UK 1ST PRESSINGS INCLUDING GEMS SUCH AS THE BEATLES, BEE GEES, BLUR, STONE ROSES, THE KINKS, BOB DYLAN, VELVET UNDERGROUND, BOWIE, THE WHO, FLOYD, ZAPPA, SIMON & GARFUNKEL...YOU GET THE PICTURE.
HERE WE HAVE A TOP NOTCH COPY OF HENDRIX'S 3RD STUDIO ALBUM WITH THE EXPERIENCE, ELECTRIC LADYLAND RELEASED IN 1968 ON TRACK RECORDS. I BELIEVE THIS TO BE THE 2ND UK PRESSING ALTHOUGH IT DOES HAVE A CORRECTED MATRIX NUMBER SO COULD BE A LATE 1ST PRESSING/EARLY 2ND PRESSING.
MATRIX NUMBERS
SIDE A : 61300(STAMPED) TWO CROSSED OUT DIGITS THEN HAND ETCHED 8 A//1 1 8 8 SIDE B : 613009 A ? 2 420 1 1 1 2 (STAMPED) SIDE C : 613009 B // 2 420 1 1 3 (STAMPED) SIDE D : 613008 B ? 2 420 1 2 1 1 (STAMPED)
LABELS : ALL FOUR LABELS ARE PRISTINE WITH ONLY THE SLIGHTEST SIGN OF SPINDLE LINES. SIDE B HAS A EXTREMELY LIGHT LINE NEXT TO TRACK 5. APART FROM THAT, NO WEAR OF ANY KIND.
VINYLS : ALL FOUR PLAYING SURFACES ARE IMMACULATE BAR SOME MEGA FAINT LINES AT THE STAR OF SIDE A WHICH ARE VERY SLIGHTLY NOTICEABLE DURING THE RUN IN AND FIRST 20 SECONDS OF TRACK 1 BUT NOTHING THAT DISTRACTS FROM THE IMMENSE QUALITY OF THESE DISCS, THE REST OF WHICH IS PRETTY MUCH FLAWLESS. ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC COPY AND HARD TO BETTER. PLAYS MINT. OVER ALL THESE GRADE AS NEAR MINT. I ONLY GRADE NEW/UNPLAYED RECORDS AS MINT.
SLEEVE : FULLY LAMINATED GATEFOLD SLEEVE BY ERNEST J. DAY & SONS IS A FINE EXAMPLE WHICH STILL HAS THAT CRACKLE WHEN YOU OPEN THE GATEFOLD. THERE IS NO LAMINATE LIFTING AT ALL. VERY SLIGHT RINGWEAR WHEN HELD TO LIGHT, BOTTOM EDGE FULLY INTACT, TOP EDGE IS STARTING TO WEAR RIGHT IN THE CENTRE, ABOUT 40mm. SPINE IS NOT WORN AT ALL BUT LAMINATE HAS A TINY CRACK IN THE CENTRE. MINIMAL WEAR TO FOUR OF THE SIX CORNERS. GRADES AS EXCELLENT.
INNER SLEEVES : I THINK ONLY ONE IS AN ORIGINAL WITH THE "MADE IN ENGLAND" AND "BRITISH PATENTS PENDING" POLY LINED. THE OTHER IS PLAIN WHITE POLY LINED. GRADES AS VG.
I GRADE ACCORDING TO RECORD COLLECTOR STANDARDS AND TRY TO BE AS ACCURATE AS POSSIBLE PLAYING ON A TECHNICS SL-1200MK5 USING ORTOFON CARTRIDGE AND STYLUS TRACKED AT 1.5 g.
