Description

BAKERLOO STEREO DEBUT ALBUM SHVL 762 STEREO VINYL ALBUM

HERE IS A VERY EARLY PRESSING OF THIS CLASSIC, RARE AND HIGHLY ACCLAIMED ALBUM.

LAMINATED GATEFOLD SLEEVE BY ERNEST J. DAY & Co Ltd. IN VERY GOOD CONDITION, A FEW  SMALL 'BUBBLES' IN THE LAMINATE WHICH HAVE BURST (SEE DETAIL IN PICTURE 3) SPINE V.GOOD AND READABLE, SLIGHT RUBBING WEAR TO BOTTOM AND TO CORNERS, SLIGHT FEATHERING TO OPENING BUT GOOD FOR AGE, SMALL TEAR TO BOTTOM OF OPENING, INSIDE VERY GOOD WITH A FEW HANDLING MARKS, SLIGHT RING WEAR VISABLE ON BACK. CONSIDERING THE AGE OF THIS ALBUM THE SLEEVE IS IN VERY GOOD CONDITION. PLEASE STUDY THE PICTURES CAREFULLY TO SATISFY YOURSEVES AS TO THE CONDITION OF THE SLEEVE.

THE VINYL HAS BEEN PROFESSIONALLY CLEANED AND HAS THAT TYPICAL EARLY PRESSING SIXTIES WEIGHT AND RETAINS A GOOD SHINE. BOTH SIDES HAVE MANY EVIDENT SUFACE MARKS AND LIGHT SCRATCHES. 

MATRIX SIDE A: SHVL 762 A-2 SIDE B: SHVL 762 B-2. I UNDERSTAND THESE ARE THE EARLIEST MARKS.

THE LABELS ARE THE EARLY TYPE WITH NO EMI BOX,NO WRITING, HAS SPINDLE MARKS EVIDENT ON BOTH SIDES BUT OTHERWISE ARE REASONABLY CLEAN.  

I HAVE LISTENED TO THIS ALBUM THROUGH A COUPLE OF TIMES FOR GRADING AND IS FAR FROM PERFECT. THERE IS SURFACE NOISE EVIDENT IN THE INTRO ON BOTH SIDES AND CRACKLE EVIDENT IN THE QUIETER SECTIONS THROUGHOUT. THERE IS SINGLE SKIP IN THE MIDDLE OF THE FIRST TRACK, BIG BEAR FOLLY, A SMALL REPEAT SCRATCH CLICK IN TRACK 2, BRING IT ON HOME. THERES A FEW POPS AND SURFACE NOISE ON SIDE B. THATS THE BAD STUFF, ON THE PLUS SIDE THIS IS A 43 YEAR OLD RECORD AND HAS BEEN PLAYED ON KIT FROM THAT PERIOD, SO TAKING THAT INTO CONSIDERATION AND TAKING  OFF MY CRITICAL HAT AND WHACKING UP THE VOLUME I FOUND MUCH OF THE ALBUM ENJOYABLE TO LISTEN TO ONCE IT GETS GOING, STEREO SEPARATION IS EXCELLENT, ALTHOUGH CRUDELY EXECUTED! IF YOU WANT A PERFECT PLAYING EXAMPLE OF THIS ALBUM PLEASE DON'T BUY THIS ONE! BUT AS AN EXAMPLE OF A EVER INCREASING RARE ORIGINAL ALBUM WHICH HAS A PRESENTABLE SLEEVE IT'S CERTAIN NOT TO BE OVERLOOKED.

IT HAS THE ORIGINAL INNER PAPER SLEEVE WHICH IS VERY GOOD WITH NO TEARS BUT HAS A NUMBER WRITTEN ON TOP CORNER.

PLEASE NOTE THAT I WOULD PREFER TO SEND THIS RECORDED DELIVERY! I WILL SEND ON CHEAPER TARIFFS BUT WILL NOT ACCEPT RESPONSIBILITY FOR LOSSES OUTSIDE POST OFFICE STANDARD COVER. I WILL ONLY SEND THIS RECORDED DELIVERY TO ITALY! BUYERS WILL BE RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY IMPORT CHARGES/TAXES.

THANKS FOR LOOKING AND PLEASE READ ALL THE STUFF BELOW BEFORE BIDDING!!

SO ACCORDING TO THE GRADING BELOW I RATE  THE SLEEVE VG,THE VINYL PLAYBACK GOOD,  VINYL VISUALLY VG

"MINT: The record itself is in brand new condition with no surface marks or deterioration in sound quality. The cover and any extra items such as the lyric sheet, booklet or poster are in perfect condition. Records advertised as Sealed or Unplaced should be Mint.

EXCELLENT: The record shows some signs of having been played, but there is very little lessening in sound quality. The cover and packaging might have slight wear and / or creasing.

VERY GOOD: The record has obviously been played many times, but displays no major deterioration in sound quality, despite noticeable surface marks and the occasional light scratch. Normal wear and tear on the cover or extra items, without any major defects, is acceptable.

GOOD: The record has been played so much that the sound quality has noticeably deteriorated, perhaps with some distortion and mild scratches. The cover and contents suffer from folding, scuffing of edges, spine splits, discolouration, etc.

FAIR: The record is still just playable but has not been cared for properly and displays considerable surface noise; it may even jump. The cover and contents will be torn, stained and / or defaced.

POOR: The record will not play properly due to scratches, bad surface noise, etc. The cover and contents will be badly damaged or partly missing.

BAD: The record is unplayable or might even be broken, and is only of use as a collection filler."

 I  TRY TO MAKE SURE THAT THE ITEM DESCRIPTION IS AS ACCURATE AS POSSIBLE HOWEVER GRADING VINYL IS SUBJECTIVE. I GRADE ON THE BASIS THAT THERE WILL BE A DEGREE OF BACKGROUND NOISE AND THE OCCASIONAL POP, PARTICULARLY ON THE QUIET SECTIONS, BETWEEN TRACKS AND FADE INS/OUTS.SUCH NOISE WILL NOT MEAN A DEGRADING OF QUALITY RATING. THOSE WISHING TO HEAR THEIR MUSIC TOTALLY FREE OF SUCH THINGS PLEASE BUY THE DIGITALLY REMASTERED CD's AND NOT MY ALBUMS!

 I  GRADE THE ALBUMS BY LISTENING TO THEM ON A GOOD QUALITY SYSTEM. THOSE ALBUMS WHICH WILL ATTRACT LOW VALUE MAY BE VISUALLY GRADED AND STATED AS SUCH IN THE DESCRIPTION.
