Description


THE PENTANGLE Sweet Child (Transatlantic TRA 178) Jansch Renbourn RARE UK Pressing EX++
RARE early UK pressing of The Pentangle`s wonderful "Sweet Child", released on Transatlantic Records (December 1968).
Sweet Child released in 1968, at the peak of Pentangle's career, is probably the most representative of their work. A sprawling two-record set, half recorded in the studio and half live at the Royal Festival Hall, showcases just how versatile Pentangle was in their unique brand of English folk, jazz, Celtic, blues, and pop styles. (...) In all, Sweet Child is an awesome and delightful collection, and probably their finest hour."  - Matthew Greenwald, allmusic.com
GRADING:
EX+ COVER in very fine condition. Please see photos for details.
- Original laminated gatefold sleeve.
- A bit of yellowing and a few minor creases to the spine. Tiny bit of laminate peel.
- Light age discolouration to inner gatefold.

EX++ to MINT- RECORDS with impeccable audio reproduction throughout.
- Both records show absolutely minimal previous use.
- A few of the very lightest hairlines from sleeve removal only.
- Very sporadic background crackle in between some tracks and in the odd quiet passage.
- Second-pressing Transatlantic Records "coloured globe" labels with no spindle wear at all.
- The matrix stamps of the first record read "TRA 178 A-3" and "TRA 178 B2".
- The matrix stamps of the second record read "TRA 178-1 A2" and "TRA 178 D-1E".

PLEASE NOTE: Not to be compared with the more-often-than-not substandard vinyl on offer on eBay UK, this item is in honestly-graded EX++ to MINT- condition. You will NOT find another vintage pressing of "Sweet Child" as nice as this one - especially at this bargain price: "True value for money" is the motto here!
