Description

This is an auction for a rare LP by, Uriah Heep, Very 'Eavy Very 'Umble.

This was released by Vertigo records in 1970 and has catalogue number 6360006.  This is the 1st press with a swirl label, Please check the pictures for clarification.

Matrix: 6360006 1Y 1      6360006 2Y 1

Condition: The gatefold sleeve has some pen marks in the centre, timings of tracks. Some small lamination creases can be seen along the edges and light buffing to the very corners. Spine & Edges ex, no tears, bends or discolouring, complete and graded at VG. Fact is if not for pen marks in the centre this would be near mint.

This comes with its original 'Vertigo Spiral' inner sleeve which has some yellowing but is otherwise fine, ne edge splits.

Both labels have a couple of light dirt marks, Under closer examination some spindle trails can be seen on each side. The centre hole shows a touch of wear on side A, there is a little darkening to the hole on side B.

The vinyl retains its shine, numerous scratches can be seen on this two of which cause a major audio problem. Firstly on side one, near the very end of track three, a thin circular scratch can be seen. The needle jumps once when reaching this scratch with a fuzz noise heard immediately afterwards. There is no audible tick in the run up to this jump, or indeed afterwras pointing to the fact this is a circular scratch which effects one groove. On side two, towards the end of track two and going onto the beginning of track three, several small scratches can be seen. These cause a loud audible tick, infact closer to a thud, on each rotation. This runs from the end of track two, through the break and into track three for a few seconds. Other than that this has feckling heard in places which is quite loud at the records quietest moments and at the very beginning of side two. Now for the good news, the audio is infact very strong and loud, hence this drowns out most of the feckling heard, not seeming to suffer from any major reduction in sound quality due to wear with the music itslef being surprisingly loud and undistorted. As this stands I can only grade this at fair because of the jump, most of this record certainly plays better than graded.

A gap filler only, not for the purist.
