Description

Deep Purple
Come Taste The Band
Very 1st UK Pressing & in NEAR MINT condition!
*AN UPGRADE*
Fully laminated inside and out gatefold cover.

(Buy it now and get it for Xmas!..FREE Tracked 48Hr UK Postage)

I have recently got hold of 3 NEAR MINT/VAULT copies of Deep Purple albums from a collector who only played them once or twice...They really are an UPGRADE and each bought within the 1st week of being on sale in the UK.

This one:
Come Taste The Band
Catalogue Number: TPSA 7515
Matrix Endings:
Stamped: A-1U / B-1U
With stamped KENDUN to both sides' run-out groove.
Mothers/Stampers: 2/PD   3/RM

The Vinyl:
NMINT

Looks to have been played just a few times in it's life...once by me for play grading....I can tell there was ZERO disappointment ANYWHERE...Not even any background noise to speak of.
When angled towards a very bright light I saw the faint, angel-like traces of just a couple of marks-these had ZERO bearing on playback...Which was full of deep lows and high pitched highs (as you would expect with Deep Purple!)
This really is the way Deep Purple wanted YOU to hear THEM!

The Labels:
NMint.

I can see the faint traces of just 2 or 3 very light spindle marks.
*SUPERB*

The Sleeve:
NMINT

It is the 1st pressing with both the outside AND the inside being laminated.
This baby really is worthy of framing.
To be ultra critical...I can see a small nick to the back panel near the opening and the spine has a tiny amount of very light rubbing.
I HAVE NEVER SEEN BETTER

The Lyric Inner:
NMINT

It is the ORIGINAL lyric inner with purple lettering and die-cut corners.
NO SPLITS
NO RUBBING
The singular point of note (otherwise would be graded as mint) is a tiny pen mark of 'w551' in the top right corner of one side.
TOP NOTCH

SO FOLKS-IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR A PURPLE ALBUM, BARELY PLAYED AND FROM AN ORIGINAL 1st PRESS BATCH IN 1975...THIS IS THE BABY
I HAVE NEVER SEEN OR HEAR BETTER.
