Label:
First Green & Orange Atlantic – 2663 001

Format:
3 × Vinyl, LP, Album, Gatefold

UK
Released:
1970

This is a genuine, UK First Orange & Green Atlantic Label press, of 1970, NOT a re-issue.
It is in Near Mint condition, having been played, by me, once!

The very first release, early in 1970, was on the Atlantic Label, and was Plumb and Red, this was just for a few months, before this change of colour, but this has the same Mothers & Stampers, often called 'Matrices'. Later pressings, even that year, have different Matrix codes, and then, as the years progress, labels change again.

The vinyl, on all six sides is clean, untouched, maybe a little dust, but I don't want to clean this, as that will be for the next owner. There are no spindle marks, at all.
The triple, top-loading, gatefold sleeve is stunning, and would be NM, too, but it has been on a shelf, and I would simply say Excellent Plus.
This also has three, real, original, clean inner sleeves, as can be seen, and only with a fold or crease or two, as the fit, into the outer, is tight.
