Description

A very 1st press of Electric Warrior on the UK Fly label from 1971. 'FLY 6' - Matrix A2U/B2U. Stampers 1-GG/1-OM. Etchings 'Pecko Duck'. The heavy set vinyl comes housed in an original heavy-card Ernest J Day cover - these were the very 1st day of release covers with the red sticker in the top-right [here, only the sticker mark remains]. Please note '1st day of issue' copies do not show any publishing credit alterations to the track Jeepster[*]. Also included is the original inner sleeve and the original promotional poster. So, 100% genuine and 100% complete.
Vinyl (Ex+) In absolutely astonishing condition and has clearly only seen the lightest of use. Under close inspection we could only make out a couple of very light marks - nothing remotely troublesome. A thorough testing from beginning to end reveals an, at least, EXCELLENT+ level of playback. Intros and inbetweens are silent and the audio comes across with perfect clarity. This is an absolutely top-level copy..I certainly haven't heard one sound quite this good. Perfect reproduction by Mr.Peckham who once again has out done himself! Interference - zilcho, nada, zip, nothing absolutely clean as you could hope for. I don't think I can remember more than a couple of crackles throughout the entire LP!
Cover (Ex) In superb condition and it is very very rare for the 1st issue sleeve to turn up looking anywhere close to this kind of condition. The front is exhibiting very little wear at all - a truly remarkable feat. The original red T-Rex sticker in the top-right has been previously removed and only a faint impression is left. The rear is in similar condition too - just some light indentations [possibly from the zip of a Sticky Fingers LP c.1971]. There's a bit of edge wear in places, but nothing that significant. Text on the spine is mostly readable apart from down at the bottom one inch where it is worn. A beautiful specimen and a real one off...
Inner (Ex) No markings and light ageing. No splits at all - unusual!
Poster (Ex+) Almost faultless. No splits. Barely any ageing at all. Has certainly never been on a wall.

Any purchase is guaranteed to get to you quickly, safely, and with total satisfaction, or your money back.
