1st pressing notes from Discogs:

CORRECT 'day of release' 1st press inners will have a "0771" or "0871" date code on the 'plastic bags' plain white 'poly-lined' inner sleeve
NOTE that copies with the Headhunters inner sleeve are re-pressings. Mainly for 2 reasons. Firstly the HeadHunters inner features LPs released 1 month later than this LP. And secondly this LP is already listed as 'available' on the inner - which means that this LP was already released when this Headhunters inner sleeve was conceived. Therefore any copies with the Headhunters inner sleeve will date from late September/October 1971 - at least 1 or 2 months after the release date. This inner DEFINITELY DID NOT EXIST at the time of this LPs release.

Sleeve printed and made by MacNeill Press Ltd., London, S.E.1.
Made in Gt.Britain.
Cat# on labels: 2408 102
Cat# on spine: Deluxe 2408 102
Cat# on back cover: 2408 102 Deluxe
'Pleated or pinched spine' - with two pleats running for 1/2" (12.5mm) from top down and bottom up.

MG-12888 in Side A runouts is etched.



Vinyl: VG+ (some incredibly superficial marks/surface scratches that have NO effect on playback!)


Sleeve: VG+ (front is very nice, just a crescent shaped light crease on opening edges)


Inner sleeve: EX (0871 dated)



Audio: NEAR MINT! WOW! This is so incredibly clean throughout with the absolute best sounding copy I've heard. Virtually NOTHING detracts from this audio. Read the track-by-track grading below!


SIDE 1

1. Baba O'Riley: virtually NO background on run in, song plays MINT!

2. Bargain: super clean intro, one faint tick, plays NEAR MINT!

3. Love Ain't For Keeping: stunning clean audio, plays MINT!

4. My Wife: stunning clean audio, plays MINT!

5. Song Is Over: stunning clean audio, plays MINT!


SIDE 2

1. Getting In Tune: one light pop in run in before song starts, another faint tick near end, plays NEAR MINT!

2. Going Mobile: stunning clean audio, plays MINT!

3. Behind Blue Eyes: stunning clean audio, plays MINT!

4. Won't Get Fooled Again: one super faint tick in between last track and this, a few super super super faint ticks in final synth section before last verse (so faint as to be barely audible!)...rest plays MINT!


BEST SOUNDING COPY I'VE EVER HEARD!
