THIS IS AN ORIGINAL 1968 UK 1ST PRESS MONO :: XEX 2725-1N  ::  XEX 2726-1N .
PRESSED OFF THE FIRST MOTHER WITH EARLY STAMPERS  ::  1 GG  :: 1 M .

ON THE 1ST PRESS BLACK AND BLUE COLUMBIA  :: 33SX 1677 .
COVER :: ORIGINAL 1ST PRESS FRONT LAMINATED FLIPBACK, WITH DATE OF ISSUE, '6412' BOTTOM RIGHT CORNER, AND PRINTED AND MADE BY GARROD & LOFTHOUSE Ltd, PATENTS PENDING, WITH SOLID SPINE AND EDGES, JUST A VERY TINY RUB ON THE TOP EDGE IN THE MIDDLE, AND A TINY RUB ON THE SPINE EDGE ALSO IN THE MIDDLE, AND NOTHING SERIOUS AS YOU CAN SEE IN THE PHOTOS. THERE IS A SMALL RUB ON THE CORNERS, AND THE OPENING EDGE IS STILL SHARP. VERY NICE LAMINATE WITH NO LAMINATE LIFT, JUST SOME SMALL LAMINATE CREASE LINES AROUND THE EDGES, AND SOME MEDIUM SIZED LAMINATE CREASE LINES, DOWN THE SPINE SIDE EDGE. THE BACK IS FREE FROM WRITING, BUT DOES HAVE SOME AGE RELATED MARKS, AND PROBABLY BEST TO LOOK AT THE PHOTOS FOR A FAR BETTER VISUAL DESCRIPTION, SO WITH NOTHING ELSE, I WOULD GRADE A VERY SOLID ORIGINAL  :: VG+ .
VINYL :: FIRSTLY THE VINYL PLAYS AMAZING WITH LOVELY CLEAR MONO AUDIO, SO NO WITH NO STICKS, JUMPS, SKIPS, STATIC, CRACKLE, POPS OR CLICKS !!!! ALL I HEARD WAS.... ON SIDE 1 :: NOTHING, JUST SUPERB BLUES AUDIO . ON SIDE 2 :: JUST TWO FAINT TICKS IN THE MIDDLE OF TRACK 1, AND THAT'S ALL, SO CERTAINLY WILL TAKE SOME BEATING !!!! VISUALLY, NOW YOU MIGHT BE SUPRISED THAT THERE ARE QUITE A LOT OF COSMETICS SEEN UNDER BRIGHT LIGHT, AND THEY ARE HARMLESS, SO LITERALLY HAVE A VISUAL EFFECT UNDER BRIGHT LIGHT. ON SIDE 1 THERE ARE COSMETIC SLEEVE REMOVAL SPIDER WEB THREAD ULTRA FINE LINES, A MORE NOTICEABLE HARMLESS THIN SCUFF LINE ON TRACK 1,2,3 AND 4, (PLEASE SEE PHOTO, THANK YOU) AND SOME COSMETIC HAIRLINES. ON SIDE 2 ALSO HAS COSMETIC SLEEVE REMOVAL SPIDER WEB THREAD ULTRA FINE LINES, AND A FEW MORE COSMETIC HAIRLINES, WITH TWO ON TRACK 1 MORE NOTICEABLE, AND ONE IS EVER SO SLIGHTLY FEELABLE, AND THAT IS WHERE THOSE TWO FAINT TICKS CAN BE HEARD. ALL SOUNDS A LOT, BUT I CAN ASSURE YOU, IF YOU DO NOT MIND COSMETICS, AND WANT SUPERB AUDIO THEN YOU WILL BE HAPPY WHEN YOU GIVE THIS VINYL A SPIN !!!! SO WITH NOTHING ELSE, I WOULD GRADE THE AUDIO  ::   EX+ . NO WAY OVER GRADED AS YOU WILL FIND OUT !!!!

LABELS ::  NICE CLEAN WITH JUST SOME LIGHT SPINDLE LINES AT THE CENTRE  :: EX .

ORIGINAL EMITEX POLYLINED INNER ::  WITH NO WRITING, OR SEAM SPLITS, JUST A BIT OF CELLO TAPE IN THE MIDDLE ON ONE SIDE EDGE, AND SOME LIGHT AGEING  :: VG .
BRILLIANT LIVE ALBUM AND THE AUDIO IS SUPERB AND FROM A 1964 ORIGINAL VINYL, OUTSTANDING. EARLIEST UK 1ST PRESS, AND 1ST PRESS COVER !!!! THANK YOU AS ALWAYS FOR YOUR TIME, ROSE.
