Description
Dear Watchers this LP is described to the best of my abilities, I am selling for my partner's mum and this is the lowest she is prepared to sell it for so if you are not prepared to stump up the cash there is no point watching as she or I do not really care whether it sells or not. I will simply put it back into storage for another decade by which time its value would have increased further.
I do not really affiliate to eBay's devaluation of vinyl and for that reason if it doesn't' sell the listing will be withdrawn. The vinyl looks to be unplayed so it is in NM condition. This is the genuine and original red eye black logo
vinyl and whilst the cover does not have internal flipbacks this is the cover that came with the vinyl when purchased so possible production error. Which in all intents and purposes would and should increase the value of the vinyl not de-valuate it.
Classic stereo pressing by Psychedelic wonder gods Traffic. This is the original First stereo pressing ILPS - 9061 released in 1967 by Island Records (LP only). The matrix run-outs are ILPS + 9061 + A and ILPS + 9061 + B. The vinyl and labels are in near mint condition as is the inner sleeve. The cover is VG+. The vinyl will come housed in a lightweight dust cover. The cover was printed by E J Day Group and it quite clearly displays ILPS9061 on the spine which is in excellent condition. I am not a vinyl aficionado but I note the original has internal flip-backs which this record does not have so it is either a misprint or a rare foreign version as the owner spent a lot of time in Germany. I have not seen one with this catalogue number, this cover with the black border and the pink label with the red eye logo. This LP was purchased in this format by the original owner from New.
The vinyl looks unplayed, I doubt you will find a better copy anywhere considering its age.
The Rare Record guides value the original stereo LP at £200.00 for a copy in this condition as I would grade it as excellent overall (£250 for mint) so I have already significantly reduced the price from it's actual value.
