Description
An original 1st press of 'M.I.J.' from 1973 on the UK Purple label. Matrix 2/1/1/1. Etching 'Porkie/Peckie/KIP etc'. Please note the labels are consistent with 1st issue and still show 'Gramophone' in the perimeter text. This LP would have been available for purchase during the initial chart run. The heavy set vinyl comes housed in an original gatefold cover printed by Garrod & Lofthouse. Also included are the original white inners with patent no's - identical. So, 100% genuine and 100% complete.
Vinyl (Ex+) In superb condition and have only seen very light use. Under close inspection there are only a couple of light marks - nothing remotely troublesome. A thorough testing from beginning to end reveals an EXCELLENT+ level of playback. One of the greatest live albums for audio quality and mastered by 'THE MAN' Mr. Peckham - what's not to like! And believe me the audio laid down here has to be heard to believed - absolutely knock-out from start to finish. Intros and inbetweens are silent and the audio comes across with perfect clarity. Interference is practically non-existent. All we detected was a couple of crackles in a couple of isolated moments [that's across four sides!!]. Even the quiet sections of 'Child In Time' play clean and that is super impressive. FINAL UPGRADE I'd say...no sweat.
Cover (Vg+) In great shape and has been looked after down the years. The front is nice and shiny with just a touch of laminate lift in the top-left and some scuffing down at the foot. The rear is in great condition too - just a crease down in the bottom left corner. The interior is pretty much immaculate. Edge wear is light and the text on the spine is still legible. Overall the cover retains excellent rigidity. A lovely example.
Inners (Ex) Lightest of ageing and no splits.
