Had To Cry Today Can't Find My Way Home Well All Right Presence Of The Lord Sea Of Joy Do What You Like

The Vinyl  NEAR MINT

Please note ! This is the original HEAVY THICKER AND DEEPER GROOVED TYPE OF VINYL (later press were much more flimsier and less robust) !!!

On initial visual inspection the playing surface looks awesome I can't see even a blemish apart from one faint hairline and some sleeve removal "clouding" . Any marks that could possibly be seen under a strong would be caused by the vinyl been slid in and out of its sleeve! Importantly There is (no) needle scratches or audio sounding marks that I heard at all  !!!!! 

UNPLAYED  LOOKING CONDITION WITH A RAINBOW GLOSY SHINE , VERY CLEAN !!!!

The Audio Quality NEAR MINT

I have played this through track for track at very loud volume on a top REGA system,  the audio is awesome! 

Cristal clear and vibrant through out, with (no) distortion or any signs of groove wear at all!!!! 

Certainly (no) clicks pops or jumps!!  

THIS AUDIO IS RATED AT THE VERY TOP ON ALL FREQUENCIES! 

GRADED AS NEAR MINT!! 

UNBELIEVABLE FOR A VINYL THAT IS 50 YEARS OLD!!!!! IN MY OPINION THESE ORIGINAL 1ST PRESSINGS PRODUCE THE BEST AUDIO QUALITY CAN NOT BE SURPASSED BY LATER PRESSINGS!!!

The Labels:  MINT

These are superb ! Feature First issue with labels flat to edge, then a dropoff, slightly smaller phonographic copyright symbol than alternate version,  (only early press)  ONLY ONE FAINT SPINDLE LINE can be seen only on each side,angled in strong light.

Confirming this has definitely been played ONCE or TWICE ONLY !!!  For a vinyl that is 50 years old , AMAZING !!

Please note! i am highly critical about the audio quality on my records as it is my prime interest above rarity! This plays awesome you will not be disappointed, also this being the 1st and very early is highly collectible and sought after!!!

The Gatefold Cover  EXCELLENT PLUS

This is the original ''UNCENSORED'' Printed gate fold cover in absolutely superb condition!! Super CLEAN appearance !! Just small edge rub on front spine edge.The spine is uncrushed, clean and fully legible. ( see pics)

 NO SPLITS OR TEARS OR NASTY NAMES WRITTEN ON ETC

 VERY VIBRANT AND VERY RICH IN COLOUR  (VERY RARELY EVER SEEN IN THIS CONDITION)  Superb UNMARKED FULLY LEGIBLE spine (see photos) SO RARE TO FIND A BETTER 1ST PRESS COVER AFTER 50 YEARS !!!!!

The Record Inner Sleeve Near MINT

This is the ORIGINAL white polylined patented numbered inner sleeve (see photos)

 (no) splits or tears just light minimal creases\ age spotting and is stored separately from the vinyl to keep it that way l!!!

PLEASE SEE ALL PICTURES and USE ZOOM FUNCTION TO FULLY ADMIRE THIS BEAUTIFUL 50 YEAR OLD ICONIC ROCK VINYL AND THANKS FOR LOOKING.
