So, so hard to find these days. Splendid psych album from this Beatlesque combo!! I am very happy to be able to present this fantastic and ULTRA rare album!
In addition to the hit singles, The Scaffold's output included four albums: The Scaffold on Parlophone in 1968, L. the P. on Parlophone in 1969, Fresh Liver on Island in 1973, andSold Out on WB in 1975. The Scaffold's first greatest hits album, entitled Singles As & Bs, was released on See For Miles Records in 1982. This was followed by a second greatest hits collection, the first on Compact Disc, The Scaffold: The Songs, in 1992. Three additional compilations of the band's Parlophone tracks have since been released (two of which also include the Warner Bros. “Liverpool Lou” track). Mike McGear, one of the founder members, is Paul McCartney' brother.
Very rare and long long gone early 1969 performance by the legendary psych crew The Scaffold.
THE VINYL PLAYS GREAT ALL THE WAY THROUGH BOTH SIDES.
THE SOUND REPRODUCTION IS SUPERB AND EVERY NOTE IS HEARD CLEARLY AND CRISPLY WITHOUT DISTORTION. NEEDLESS TO SAY, NO STICKS OR JUMPS! Light static can be heard at sometimes but is not intrusive.
Vinyl: VG++ to EX. Ultra heavy vinyl at 141 gr.!! Not played much and has hardly any spindle trace. Audio is A++and this vinyl sounds out of this world. The audio has beautiful separation and there is hardly ever any background noise. I played this twice in full and thoroughly enjoyed it. I was even tempted to keep this as it will be very hard to find this again, it is indeed megarare now. Two light lines on side 2 have no impact at all. Needless to say NO jumps, clicks or ticks. This is the harder to find MONO version. This will be a fantastic acquisition for most long time collectors!!
Sleeve: VG++ to EX. Printed and made by Garrod and Lofthouse. Fantastic looked after sleeve without any damage. Very unusual as well with the back being laminated instead of the front!! One tiny sticker repair to the top right corner, not immediately noticable and very small indeed. Light edgewear and only two minute creases to the back. NO writing, NO smudges. NO tears. NO splits.
Inner sleeve: EX. This is the original EMI advertising inner with the Floyd's first album, Simon Dupree & the Big Sound amongst others on the pictures. This is often missing and a collector's item in its own right.
This is a unique investment opportunity!!! The next psych/folk album to go completely through the roof. Finding this album in any condition at all is nearly impossible so late in the day. Get this while you still can. This value of the album is only going to go one way ... up and up ... until it will be totally unavailable at all for a reasonable price.
Important : International postage will be registered and insured if over GBP 45.00. Please wait for my invoice before paying. Postage will be according to Royal Mail rates. Postage is NOT a money spinning exercise for me.
Though there are rarely ever any problems with my items, I always try my very best to describe everything exactly! PLEASE REMEMBER to contact me FIRST, if you have any problems at all, before you leave feedback and star ratings, so I get a chance to turn any negative experience into a positive one! I can always happily sort anything out for you, if you let me know you have a problem! This way no one has to leave Negative/Neutral feedback - and we both walk away happy! Similarly with the amount of stars, anything less than a full 5 * rating is effectively detrimental to a seller's rating as lower ratings will incur higher Final Value Fees and lower priority in the bidlists eventually making it unattractive to list items on Ebay at all. I know of at least one major previous Ebay seller who has decided not to list via Ebay again. Please do NOT bid if you cannot give me at least 1 chance to sort everything out to your FULL satisfaction in the unlikely event of a problem. Thanks again!!
This an excellent investment opportunity!!! Any questions please ask me and I will try to answer soon.
