ATTENTION JIMI HENDRIX,TRACK LABELS AND ORIGINAL 1960s MONO PSYCHEDELIC/PROGRESSIVE ROCK COLLECTORS!     

HERE IS AN ORIGINAL 1967 1ST MONO ISSUE OF AN ESSENTIAL ALBUM BY THE JIMI HENDRIX EXPERIENCE: "AXIS:BOLD AS LOVE" WITH THE BLACK COLOUR TRACK LABELS:612 003 WITH THE EARLIEST POSSIBLE A 1/B 1 MATRIXES AND HOUSED IN THE ORIGINAL POLYLINED INNER SLEEVE WITH THE EARLIEST POSSIBLE "BRITISH AND OTHER PATENTS PENDING" CREDIT AND A LAMINATED GATEFOLD COVER PRINTED BY ERNEST J.DAY WITH THE FLIPBACKS INSIDE. PLEASE NOTE THE DISC IS SERIOUSLY AND STRICTLY GRADED AS  GOOD++++++ CONDITION WITH MOST OF THE DISC ACTUALLY SOUNDING NEARER TO EXCELLENT! THE REASON FOR THE GOOD++++++++ GRADE IS BECAUSE OF A DEEP MARK ACROSS THE FIRST HALF OF THE SHORT OPENING SPEECH TRACK. THERE IS SOME SLIGHT GROOVE WEAR DISTORTION ON A COUPLE OF THE TRACKS AND THERE IS SOME NOTICEABLE SURFACE NOISE ON THE FIRST TRACK OF SIDE TWO,HOWEVER MOST OF THE DISC SOUNDS GREAT!. THERE ARE SOME SURFACE MARKS INCLUDING A FEW VERY LIGHT,FAINT CLICKS(MOSTLY SHORT LIVED)HEARD DURING THE QUIETER PASSAGES BUT NOT TOO OBTRUSIVE AS WELL AS SOME ISOLATED "POPS" HERE AND THERE AT OTHER POINTS BUT IT PLAYS THROUGH NICELY INDEED APART FROM THAT FIRST TRACK BUT AS IT'S THE ANNOYING NOVELTY "INTERVIEW" MOST FANS WOULD PROBABLY BE HAPPY TO SKIP THIS TRACK ANYWAY!. VERY HARD TO FIND AS AN ORIGINAL MONO FIRST EDITION,THIS COPY SHOULD BE REGARDED AS A "GAP FILLER" EXAMPLE UNTIL A BETTER ONE COMES ALONG BUT IT IS STILL BETTER THAN MOST WITH NO CONSTANT SWISHES AND IN FACT MOST OF THE DISC SOUNDS GREAT AND OF COURSE BEING ON THE EARLIEST TRACK LABEL AND IN MONO IS VERY HARD TO FIND IN 2017 AS MOST COPIES WERE MADE AND SOLD IN STEREO AS BY 1967 EVEN THE MOST BASIC NEWER MONO RECORD PLAYERS HAD COMPATIBLE STEREO CARTRIDGES FITTED AND AS SUCH MOST MONO COPIES WERE OBTAINED TO SPECIAL ORDER. THERE IS HARDLY ANY SPINDLE WEAR AND NO LABEL WRITING,STAINING,RIPS OR MAJOR DEFACEMENT.THE LAMINATED GATEFOLD COVER HAS SOME CREASES,MOSTLY SMALL EDGE ONES BUT NO WRITING,RIPS OR REPAIRS.

PLEASE SEE ALL THE PHOTOS SHOWING THE FRONT AND BACK OF THE COVER AND BOTH LABELS! NOTHING TO HIDE! A REALISTIC £12 STARTING PRICE WITH MORE LPs FROM ME ON EBAY THIS WEEK AND TO FOLLOW.  PERSONAL COLLECTION IS WELCOME FROM MY SHOP IN NORWICH AT A MUTUALLY CONVENIENT TIME.

Over the years I have helped to add to the collections of many  collectors and given my experience, I am aware of the titles that are GENUINE RARE ITEMS.

Now of course for those who are"chained"to the record collector price guide books,for whom I am one of the main consultants, the prices are still a SUGGESTION and as we all know ACTUAL prices SOLD can vary.

The sellers on ebay who continually put"listed"or "list price"on everything should be aware of this!!!!     

This is my honest grading!!!

Please see my listening policy below. 

I test on a lightweight pickup of approx 2 grammes and listen with the treble full on and no filtering or mono switch used.As both a collector and dealer,I AM VERY STRICT ON GRADING but DO CHECKOUT MY FEEDBACK FOR GRADING PROOF!!!!
