Description

On offer here is one of the RAREST LPs you will EVER see (especially in this condition!!!!) by The Rolling Stones called "The Rolling Stones" and is an ORIGINAL 1964 UK MONO 1st Pressing on the 1st Press UNBOXED 'Grooved' Decca label!!!!  THIS LP IS SERIOUSLY RARE AND VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND!!!!  THIS WAS THE ROLLING STONES FIRST & RAREST LP EVER - AND VIRTUALLY NEVER TURNS UP FOR SALE!!!!  JUST TRY AND FIND ANOTHER ONE!!!!  THIS IS ONE OF THE MOST SOUGHT AFTER LPs ON THE DECCA LABEL - AND IS INCREDIBLY TOUGH TO LOCATE TODAY!!!!  BUT WHAT MAKES THIS LP REALLY SPECIAL, IS THAT IT IS THE ALL TIME 'EARLIEST' & RAREST 1ST PRESSING OF THIS LP EVER MADE - WITH A COMPLETELY DIFFERENT MIX THAT ONLY EVER HAPPENED ON A TINY HANDFUL OF THE 'EARLIEST' 1ST PRESSINGS ONLY!!!!  AND THIS IS ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND ON THIS LP!!!!  THIS IS THE AMAZINGLY RARE '2.52' MONO 1ST PRESSING OF THIS LP AND PLAYS THE WITHDRAWN '2.52' VERSION OF 'TELL ME'!!!!  THIS '2.52' MIX SHOULD NEVER HAVE BEEN ON THIS LP AT ALL (IT WAS SUPPOSED TO HAVE BEEN A DEMO VERSION ONLY!), AND WAS IMMEDIATELY CHANGED TO THE STANDARD '4.06' PRESSING OF 'TELL ME' WHICH APPEARS ON ALL LATER PRESSINGS!!!!  ONLY A TINY HANDFUL OF THESE LPs LEAKED OUT WITH THE '2.52' VERSION BY MISTAKE - AND MAKES THIS, THE RAREST ROLLING STONES LP OF ALL TIME!!!!  IT IS ALSO VERY IMPORTANT TO NOTE THAT ON THIS 1ST PRESSING - THE '2.52' VERSION OF 'TELL ME' IS NOT ONLY SHORTER THAN THE STANDARD LATER '4.06' VERSION - BUT ALSO A TOTALLY DIFFERENT RECORDING!!!!  IT SOUNDS TOTALLY DIFFERENT (AND IN MY OPINION BETTER AND CERTAINLY FAR MORE INTERESTING!) AND IS A SUPERB EXAMPLE OF THE ROLLING STONES AT THEIR VERY BEST!!!!  SO THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NO DOUBT AT ALL, THAT THIS IS THE 'EARLIEST' & RAREST 1ST PRESSING OF THIS INCREDIBLE LP THAT YOU CAN POSSIBLY GET!!!!

BUT THERE IS 1 MORE VITALLY IMPORTANT DETAIL - THAT MAKES THIS THE ALL TIME 'EARLIEST' & RAREST '2.52' 1ST PRESSING EVER MADE!!!!  AND IT IS SOMETHING THAT MOST '2.52' 1ST PRESSINGS SIMPLY DO NOT HAVE!!!!  AND THAT IS THAT THIS LP HAS THE ALL TIME 'EARLIEST POSSIBLE' 1ST PRESS 1A/1A MATRIXES - WHICH MAKES THIS LP QUITE LITERALLY THE 'EARLIEST' 1ST PRESSING YOU CAN POSSIBLY GET!!!!!  AND THE WORD 'RARE' DOESNT EVEN BEGIN TO DESCRIBE THIS LP WITH THESE MATRIXES!!!!  I HAVE ONLY EVER HAD 12 OF THESE '2.52' 1ST PRESSINGS EVER BEFORE IN MY VERY LONG TIME IN COLLECTING & SELLING RECORDS (THEY ARE ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO LOCATE!) - AND 5 OF THESE WERE 1A/2As (THE MOST COMMON), AND 4 HAD 2A/2A MATRIXES.  BUT THIS IS ONLY THE THIRD TIME EVER - THAT I HAVE FOUND THIS LP WITH ULTRA RARE 1A/1A MATRIXES!!!!  IN FACT, UP UNTIL QUITE RECENTLY - MOST PEOPLE I HAD SPOKEN TO WERE UNDER THE IMPRESSION THAT 1A/1As DIDNT EVEN EXIST!!!!  BUT HERE IT IS!!!!  AN ABSOLUTELY 100% GENIUNE 'EARLIEST POSSIBLE' 1ST PRESSING OF THIS LP WITH 1A/1A MATRIXES AND A COMPLETELY DIFFERENT VERSION OF 'TELL ME'!!!!  THIS LP IS OF THE UTMOST RARITY - AND ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND LIKE THIS, AND I AM VERY CERTAIN THAT IT WILL BE A VERY VERY LONG TIME (IF EVER!) BEFORE YOU GET THE CHANCE TO OWN THE 'EARLIEST' & RAREST '2.52' 1ST PRESSING OF THIS LP AGAIN!!!! 

NOT ONLY THAT BUT THIS LP IS IN GREAT CONDITION - AND IS A VERY VERY DECENT EXAMPLE INDEED!!!!  JUST TAKE A LOOK AT THE PICTURES!!!!  THIS IS THE ORIGINAL 1964 UK 'EARLIEST' MONO '2.52' 1ST PRESSING ON THE 'EARLIEST' 1ST PRESS UNBOXED 'GROOVED' DECCA LABEL, 'EARLIEST EVER' 1ST PRESS 1A/1A MATRIX ENDINGS (INDICATING THE WRONG '2.52' VERSION OF 'TELL ME'!), 'EARLIEST' 1ST PRESSING 'HANDLING/PLAYING' INNER SLEEVE, AND 'EARLIEST' 1ST PRESS 'PRINTED IN ENGLAND' FLIPBACK LAMINATED MONO COVER!!!!  THIS LP IS SERIOUSLY RARE AND VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND LIKE THIS - SO DONT MISS OUT ON THIS AMAZING OPPORTUNITY!!!!  This is the ORIGINAL Decca UK '2.52' 1st Pressing from 1964 and is in GREAT condition!!!!  The record is pressed on THICK quality vinyl.  The Cat.

This one is NOT and has NO scratches, only 3 or 4 light hairlines, only 3 or 4 VERY light scufflines, and only a VERY few of the lightest paper scuffs only visible under light!!!!  The record also has a few almost INVISIBLE dappled traces from original manufacture (though this is ONLY visible under the VERY brightest of lights - and most people wouldnt even notice this, let alone mention it!)!!!!  THE RECORD STILL RETAINS ITS ORIGINAL JUST PRESSED LOOK AND SHINES LIKE NEW!!!!  It is also GREAT to find that the record plays as STUNNINGLY as the visual!!!!  The record plays with NO skips, barely ANY clicks, NO sticking, NO jumps, and barely ANY crackle AT ALL!!!!  The sound quality is simply SUPERB with NO groovewear and barely ANY distortion AT ALL!!!!  The record must grade Very Good+ if not better - and is a very VERY decent record indeed!!!!  Believe me this record is NOT overgraded in ANY way!!!!  I use STRICT RC grading standards - it is not in my interest not to!!!! Brillant!!!!  The record comes in its ORIGINAL 1st Press 'Handling/Playing' inner sleeve which is in SUPERB condition!!!!  The ORIGINAL & 'Earliest' 1st Press 'Printed In England' Flipback Laminated MONO Cover is in BRILLIANT condition!!!!  The cover has NO edge wear, NO spinal wear, only VERY slight corner wear, NO splits, only a few TINY creases to the VERY edges (barely ANY elsewhere AT ALL - and cover is VERY flat looking!), NO rips, NO tears, VERY shiny laminate, NO annotations, and NO writing!!!!  The opening edge is beautifully straight with barely ANY feathering AT ALL!!!!  Even the unlaminated back of the cover is in BRILLIANT condition with NO yellowing, NO grubbyness, NO ringwear, barely ANY rubbing AT ALL, and NO writing!!!!  The cover must grade Very Good++ if not better!!!!  THIS LP IS SERIOUSLY RARE AND VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND LIKE THIS (ESPECIALLY AS THE 'EARLIEST' 1ST PRESSING EVER MADE - WITH 1A/1A MATRIX ENDINGS & THE WITHDRAWN '2.52' MIX OF 'TELL ME'!) - SO DONT MISS OUT ON THIS INCREDIBLE OPPORTUNITY!!!!
