Description

An original 1st press of Tommy on UK Track from spring 1969. Matrix A1/B1/A1/B1 - very 1st cut. Please note the label design is consistent with very 1st press - both labels mention 'DOUBLE ALBUM' and are matt and flat [not ridged]. The heavy-set vinyl comes housed in an original 1st issue gatefold cover - LAMINATED [per only the 1st copies]. Also included is the lyric booklet stamped with number "15149". Also included are both plastic bag warning inner sleeves date coded to June 1969 [069] - just one month after 1st release. So, 100% genuine and 100% complete.
Vinyl (Ex+) In lovely condition and have only seen relatively light use. Under close inspection we could only make out a couple of very light marks per side - nothing remotely troublesome. A thorough testing from beginning to end reveals an EXCELLENT+ level of playback. Intros and inbetweens are pretty much silent and the audio comes across with perfect clarity. Beautifully clean audio and I can assure you that the 1st pressings sound G-R-E-A-T. Interference is closing in on non-existent. All I could detect were a few crackles in a couple of spots - per disc. Across four sides of vinyl and from a 1st pressing - that's impressive! You'd struggle finding a copy that would even match the audio on offer here...
Cover (Ex/Ex+) Wow, it would be impressive enough finding the 2nd issue in this kind of condition, but a genuine 1st issue from '69 in this condition is a great find! A beautifully clean and uncreased flat front cover really is quite something to behold. The rear is equally good and it's worth mentioning that the blue hues in the front cover are very vivid and bold - they have certainly not been affected by light. The interior follows this trend - immaculate..no creases or ageing at all. Edge wear is very light for this title and the spine is entirely intact - which must be very unusual. Overall the cover retains excellent rigidity.
Inners (Ex) No splits or writing. Light ageing at the glue points.
Lyric Book (Ex+) All intact. Not heavily thumbed. No ageing.
