Description
THIS IS THE REAL DEAL
1st UK PRESSING OF THIS SHORT RUN ALBUM ON HARVEST SHVL 777 MATRIX A1 & B1 WITH "THE GRAMAPHONE CO. LTD." ON THE OUTER EDGE OF LABEL.
IT HAS RITCHIE BLACKMORE'S AUTOGRAPH IN BLACK BALLPOINT OVER HIS INDIVIDUAL PHOTO ON THE INSIDE GATEFOLD WHICH I GOT WHEN HE VISITED HIS MUM WHO HAD A SMALL SHOP IN CAMBERLEY, SURREY CLOSE TO WHERE I THEN LIVED.
THE COVER IS MINT AND LOOKS AS IF IT HAS JUST COME OFF W H SMITH'S SHELF IN 1970, IT HAS ALWAYS BEEN KEPT IN A THICK PVC OUTER SLEEVE.
THE DISC IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION, HAVING BEEN PLAYED A FEW TIMES ON DECENT EQUIPMENT.
THERE IS A FLIER FOR THEIR SHOWS IN SOUTHAMPTON WHICH I SELLOTAPED ONTO THE PLAIN INNER SLEEVE BUT IF YOU DON'T LIKE THIS, IT IS EASY TO REPLACE.
THIS IS A TRULY FINE EXAMPLE OF THIS HARD TO GET ALBUM AND YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED.
