Description
Yes - Close To The Edge. ( 1972 Atlantic UK very first pressing . A1 / B1 matrices. Dark labels. FULLY textured cover . Silver trim on front titles K 50012 ). The one all Yes collectors seem to want now ! Sources drying up fast ......fully textured matt cover has edge wear and some ringwear on the rear. Fully readable spine. Small name written inside gatefold top right. Solid VERY GOOD . Original dark green paper inner bag is taped round the edges. VERY GOOD. Dark Atlantic labels show only moderate signs of use. VERY GOOD PLUS. Vinyl lies flat and true on the turntable platter. Several sleeve removal lines evident under direct spotlight. But nothing deep or intrusive. Still a fantastic audio experience. . Totally different sound to all subsequent pressings. Hence the demand for these originals. Warmer , richer and more dynamic for sure. So visually VERY GOOD. but aurally NEAR EX. . only very low level background noise on quiet passages. These A1/B1, originals are getting harder and harder to score now for sure....... Gradings as per Record Collector Grading System definitions. Dealer & collector since 1974. All photos are of actual item for sale. Please wait for my personal invoice before paying if buying from outside the UK. Thanks. Any questions please get in touch. Gordon.
