1ST USA MERCURY LABEL PRESSING OF A NON-UK LP 

VAN DER GRAAF GENERATOR

"THE AEROSOL GREY MACHINE"

A SERIOUSLY RARE LP AS IT WAS NOT ISSUED IN THE UK AT THE TIME,AND WAS NOT A BIG SELLER IN THE USA WHEN AMERICANS WERE MORE INTO GRATEFUL DEAD AND SIMILAR HORROR!

THIS IS THE VERY FIRST USA ISSUE!

MERCURY LABEL:SR-61238

AM4 BM2 MATRIXES.  

 IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR AN ACURATE GRADED ORIGINAL 1ST PRESSING OF THIS GEM OF AN LP-THIS COULD BE THE ONE FOR YOU!  

EXCELLENT CONDITION-WITH JUST THE FAINTEST OF SURFACE MARKS AND HARDLY ANY SURFACE NOISE WHATSOEVER WHICH IS AMAZING FOR AN AMERICAN LP!

A COPY THAT HAS NOT HAD MUCH USE AND WELL CARED FOR!

ONE OWNER IN NEARLY 40 YEARS! 

GLEAMING SURFACES!

HARDLY ANY SURFACE NOISE AND SOUNDS FANTASTIC WITH NO CLICKS/JUMPS/STICKS etc!

MANY WOULD STATE NEAR MINT! 

TONS OF BASS AND WARMTH! 

IT IS TIME FOR ANOTHER DELIGHT FROM ONE OF THE UKs LEADING RECORD  EXPERTS/DEALERS.  

NOW HERE IS SOMETHING VERY SPECIAL!

AN ORIGINAL 1ST EDITION(1969)OF THE HYPNOTIC PROGRESSIVE ALBUM WITH MORE LEANINGS TO PSYCHEDELIA.

PROGRESSIVE ROCK AT IT'S VERY BEST WITH SUPERB MUSICIANSHIP,SOME GREAT SOLOS ALL IN THE GLORY OF VINYL!

A MAGNIFICENT EXPERIENCE THAT MUST HAVE BLOWN MANY MINDS AWAY BACK IN 1969 WHEN THE MAJORITY OF EQUIPMENT USED RUINED ANY COPY WITHIN JUST A COUPLE OF PLAYS.DON'T FORGET THOSE PARTIES WHERE SUCH LPs WERE PLAYED AND ENDED UP LEFT LYING AROUND WITHOUT A COVER OR ON A TURNTABLE TO WARP AND ATTRACT DUST AND DIRT,SPILLAGES,SCUFFS,SCRATCHES etc etc.

HARDLY ANYONE THOUGHT LONG TERM VALUE AND VERY,VERY FEW WOULD PLAY SUCH MUSIC IN THE SAME CAREFUL WAY THAT CLASSICAL BUYERS WOULD.THIS COPY IS THE EXCEPTION!!!!!!!!!!!!

IN 1969, THE BAND WERE HARDLY KNOWN AND SO ONLY A FEW WOULD MAKE THE EFFORT TO GET AN IMPORT COPY OF THIS LP!!! 

ANY VAN DER GRAAF FAN WILL WANT THIS AND ESPECIALLY AS A FIRST EDITION IN SUCH GREAT CONDITION-I CAN'T RECALL EVER FINDING ONE AS GOOD AS THIS FOR YEARS-JUST TRY AND FIND ANOTHER COPY FROM AN EQUALLY LONG TERM EBAY SUPPLIER OF TOP QUALITY VINTAGE ROCK!

NOT ONLY THAT, I HAVE A TRULY AMAZING SELECTION OF MORE ORIGINAL FIRST PRESSING VAN DER GRAAF GENERATOR LPs ENDING SHORTLY BEFORE THIS LP ENDS.ALL HAVING JUST ONE PREVIOUS,CAREFUL OWNER!YOU REALLY MUST CHECK OUT MY EBAY LIST FOR MORE DETAILS AS WELL AS MY FEEDBACK! 

THIS IS A LOVELY VINYL PRESSING.

MOST COPIES THAT SURVIVE OF THIS LP ARE IN POOR CONDITION-THIS ONE HAS HARDLY BEEN PLAYED ON TOP EQUIPMENT WITH ONLY THE SLIGHTEST OF SURFACE NOISE HERE AND THERE-GENERALLY VERY QUIET VINYL,AS NEEDED WITH REFLECTIVE MUSIC!

How many were preserved like this one AS A FIRST EDITION??

HARDLY USED AND NOT ABUSED!!! 

THERE IS AMAZING BASS AND YET STILL CRISPNESS OF SOUND!

Vinyl is still the best way to hear VAN DER GRAAF GENERATOR AND ALWAYS WILL BE!

GREAT SOUND! 

MORE BASS THAN CD! 

I TEST ALL THE WAY THROUGH WITHOUT FILTERING OR A MONO SWITCH. MANY EBAY SELLERS DON'T EVEN BOTHER TO PLAY BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO SELL!!!

BID WITH TOTAL CONFIDENCE!!!! 

There is NO spindle wear.Lovely labels!!! 

PLEASE NOTE THE COVER HAS A SPLIT ACROSS THE TOP AND BOTTOM WHICH IS DUE TO THE HORRIBLE"PULP"CARD THAT WAS USED ON AMERICAN COVERS.SO MANY HAVE SPLITS BUT!!!!>>>>> 

NO WRITING! NO REPAIRS!

NO SELLOTAPE! 

MOST TURN UP WITH MAJOR WEAR!

SEE BOTH PHOTOS FOR FRONT AND BACK,+BOTH RECORD LABELS! 

Look elsewhere on ebay and you might see other copies-Look closer and you will find they are often later 1970s represses or lower grade copies with all manner of faults OR WITHOUT THE DETAIL I AM PROVIDING WITH TOTAL HONESTY.

HOPEFULLY THE WINNER WILL FIND THIS A BIT BETTER THAN EXPECTED!!

Don't forget GENUINE 1st pressings in nice conditions are getting hard to find! 

MOST RECORDS ON EBAY ARE IN DIABOLICAL, BAD CONDITIONS ATTEMPTED TO BE  SOLD BY PEOPLE WHO DO NOT KNOW HOW TO GRADE OR BOTHER TO ACTUALLY PLAY THEM FOR AN ACURATE DESCRIPTION!
