ARCADIUM

BREATHE AWHILE

ORIGINAL FIRST UK PRESSING

1969 MIDDLE EARTH RECORDS

 

BUYERS BEWARE .

Due to the high value of this magnificent item a forgery of this LP does exist.

The forgery is easily identifiable it has yellowy ghosting on the front sleeve also

the middle earth logo at the bottom centre is totally out of focus , but the chief

giveaway sign for differentiating between the original and the phoney is it comes

with a solid blue label.

There is also an official re-issue but that comes with a plain white label.

So you can rest assured everything here is 100% original 1969 Middle Earth pressing.

 

This is one of the most sort after records by the most serious record collectors.

Released in 1969 on Middle Earth records it sold terribly so was imediatly deleted.

This is the SUPERARE UK pressing ( much rarer than the French or the Australian).

Another reason this LP is so highly prized by collectors is that quite simply , the music on this LP

is absolutely superb from start to finnish. Every track a killer . If you havent heard this LP make it

your bussiness to get a copy , seriously , this is one of the best LPs ever made.

WHAT HAPPEND TO THIS GREAT BAND?

 

Condition.

The pythoneque sleeve is in Very Good ++ condition and thats a very conservative 

grading , really clean front and back .Double click the pictures and cursor evey inch or the sleeve.

Very few blemishes and no laminate creasing the sleeve is really impressive .

There is no unwanted handwriting anywhere on the item . Double click the pictures

have a look at the spine every word is perfectly readable wich is another added feature loved by collectors.

The record labels are in great condition again no unwanted handwriting anywhere.

The vinyl still has its lustry sheen when tilted toward the light but it does have a lot of

hailines on it and because of this I have decided to do a track by track Vinyl grading as

you will see by this grading the hailines have very little effect on the playing of this great LP.

 

1) IM ON MY WAY 9 out of10

2)POOR LADY 91/2 out of10

3)WALK ON THE BADSIDE 9 out of 10

4)WOMAN OF A THOUSAND YEARS 81/2 out of 10

5)CHANGE ME 9 out of 10

6)IT TAKES A WOMAN 10 out of 10

7)BIRTH LIFE AND DEATH 10 out of 10

 

All the collectors who own a copy of this LP know that the original UK pressing

even a Mint condition copy on Middle Earth is notorious for pops and clicks .

With that in mind this copy here plays surprisingly well .

It plays Very Good++ with no sticking no skips or jumps at all .

 

So there it is. Not only a ridiculassly rare record but the added bonus its a brilliant

record throughout ( read the reviews on the net or have a listen on youtube) .

A truly magnificent and rare LP.

A penny start and

 NO RESERVE !
