Description
THE WHO - " THE WHO SELL OUT ", Track Records (612 002) Mono, 1967.
Very rare 1967, early UK mono pressing of the very rare Who LP
With matrix numbers; 612002 A 2-II / 612002 B 11 2 4
English issue and pressing.
Professionally cleaned on my Moth record cleaning machine and then put in a fresh new poly-lined inner sleeve (the original inner sleeve has also been kept and will be included with this item).
NOTE: this particular LP came with an inner sleeve featuring large text reading "NOT TO LEAVE THE FACTORY". I know nothing about this quirk... to the best of my knowledge this is the LP's original inner, yet I can find no other reference on the vinyl or sleeve to this being a factory sample or demo copy - see photo for more info.
In the name of getting the auction going, I will start this item at just 99p.
CONDITION:
VINYL = EXCELLENT- (No big scratches, no groove damage, no distortion, just the very lightest of spindle trails, etc. Under my bright grading lamp, the is vinyl's surface carries few very faint surface marks and paper scuffs, but none of them correlate to any kind of noise or other audible interuptions during playback. There is some very faint surface noise just audibile during the silent run-in before the beginning of the tracks, but when the music starts, it plays strong and clean from then on - free from interuption from distortion, clicks, pops, surface noise, etc.
Overall, although it is not quite mint, it's imperfections are very slight and would make a good honest copy for someone to play and enjoy it - those searching for a museum piece or a sterile CD sound item might find this particular copy just comes up a little short.
The overall "Excellent-" grading I am giving this record is dictated by the slight visual imperfections, if this LP was to be grading on audio playback alone it would have easily made a straight "Excellent" grading.
Note: for the purposes of this listing I have tested this LP on my Linn LP12 Sondek turntable - generally this is quite a critical test, but I must point out that I cannot guarantee exactly how this LP will sound on your turntable - common sense for most... but then this is ebay!!!)
SLEEVE = V.G.+ (No rips, tears, defacing, heavy ringwear, etc. That said, there are a few light creases in the laminate, a some very slight delamintation along the spine, the corners are a bit worn and it's not quite as white as it once was. Overall, an honest example of an old record sleeve that has been used and shows signs of it, but not abused/trashed - see photos for further clarification
NOTE: I must point out that we are actually a long standing physical record shop, with many decades worth of selling, trading and grading records under our collective belts. Unlike so many of the jokers now selling records on ebay, we know how to grade records. Before bidding, please read my description carefully, decide how much this record is worth to you and place you max bid accordingly. Please also feel free to check out my feedback from the many other successful transactions I have made in the past.
ANY QUESTIONS? PLEASE DON'T HESITATE TO GET IN TOUCH!
