Description

On offer here is a VERY rare Double LP (especially in this condition!!!!) by The Electric Light Orchestra called "Out Of The Blue" and is an ORIGINAL 1978 UK 'Blue Vinyl' 1st Pressing on the 1st Press Jet label!!!!  THIS LP IS SERIOUSLY RARE AND VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND!!!!  JUST TRY AND FIND ANOTHER ONE!!!!  THIS IS ONE OF THE ELECTRIC LIGHT ORCHESTRA'S MOST SOUGHT AFTER LPs EVER - AND VIRTUALLY NEVER TURNS UP FOR SALE (LIKE THIS!)!!!!  THIS DOUBLE LP IS MADE EVEN RARER STILL - AS IT IS THE ULTRA RARE 'BLUE VINYL' 1ST PRESSING FROM 1978, ONLY MADE IN ABSOLUTELY TINY AMOUNTS, AND IS 100% COMPLETE WITH ITS ORIGINAL 'BLUE VINYL' COVER STICKER!!!!

PLEASE ALSO NOTE - ALL 'BLUE VINYL' COPIES OF THIS LP CAME WITH A POSTER & A 'PUSH-OUT' ELO SPACE STATION (WHICH WAS ON A FLAT PIECE OF CARD + PUSH OUT PIECES).  PEOPLE LIKE TO PRETEND 'BLUE VINYL' COPIES NEVER HAD THE SPACE STATION, BECAUSE THE 'UN MADE' SPACE STATION FALLS APART IN SECONDS IF YOU DO NOT HANDLE IT CORRECTLY AND THEREFORE 99% COPIES (JUST LIKE STANDARD COPIES) ARE MISSING THIS PART - OR IT IS BADLY DAMAGED.  EVERY SINGLE COPY OF THIS LP WHETHER BLUE VINYL OR BLACK VINYL HAD THE POSTER & SPACE STATION FROM THE DAY THEY WERE MADE.  THERE ARE NO EXCEPTIONS TO THIS RULE.  SO IT IS VERY VERY RARE INDEED TO FIND THIS 'BLUE VINYL' 1ST PRESS TRULY 100% COMPLETE IN EVERY WAY!!!!

BUT WHAT MAKES THIS DOUBLE LP REALLY SPECIAL IS THAT IT IS IN ABSOLUTELY AMAZING CONDITION!!!!  AND THIS IS ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND ON THIS LP!!!!  THIS DOUBLE LP WAS OWNED BY A MUSIC DIRECTOR WHO WAS HIGH UP IN THE MUSIC BUSINESS IN THE 1970s AND 1980s.  HE RECIEVED THIS DOUBLE LP DIRECT FROM THE FACTORY AND NEVER EVER PLAYED IT!!!!  ALL OF HIS LPs WERE STORED PERFECTLY OUT OF SUNLIGHT IN SECURE RECORD BOXES - AND MOST WERE NEVER EVER ACCESSED AGAIN!!!!  AND IN THIS LPs CASE, IT IS VERY CLEAR THAT THIS LP HAS NEVER BEEN PLAYED AT ALL, AND ALMOST CERTAINLY HASN'T EVEN BEEN TOUCHED SINCE IT WAS PLACED INSIDE A RECORD BOX BACK IN 1978!!!!  JUST TAKE A LOOK AT THE PICTURES - THIS DOUBLE LP IS TRULY IN ABSOLUTELY AMAZING CONDITION, AND SO VERY HARD TO FIND LIKE THIS NOW!!!! 

THIS IS THE ORIGINAL 1978 UK 'BLUE VINYL' 1ST PRESSING ON THE 1ST PRESS JET LABEL, 1ST PRESS 'PICTURE/LYRIC' INNER SLEEVES, 1ST PRESS POSTER, 1ST PRESS UNMADE 'SPACE STATION', AND 1ST PRESS GATEFOLD 'STICKERED' COVER!!!!  THIS LP IS SERIOUSLY RARE AND VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND LIKE THIS - SO DONT MISS OUT ON THIS AMAZING OPPORTUNITY!!!!  This is the ORIGINAL Jet UK 1st Pressing from 1978 and is in AWESOME condition!!!! The record is pressed on THICK quality vinyl. The Cat. No is JETDP 400 on the ORIGINAL 1st Press Jet label (see picture) and is a UK Stereo 1st Pressing (there were NO Monos!)!!!!

The record labels are in absolutely AMAZING condition (see pictures) on BOTH records with NO writing, NO wear, and NO spindle marks AT ALL!!!!  IT IS VERY CLEAR THAT THESE RECORDS HAVE NEVER BEEN PLAYED AT ALL (apart from my 1 undetectable 'test play')!!!!  The vinyl is in AWESOME condition!!!!  Most of these 60s/70s LPs had been to a lot of wild parties and are usually found totally worn out, and almost unplayable. This one is NOT and BOTH records have NO scratches, NO hairlines, NO scufflines, some unavoidable 'brushing traces' under light (this is on ALL Blue Vinyl copies from delivery - due to the VERY harsh & rough Cardboard inner sleeves the LPs are stored in!), and only a VERY few of the lightest paper scuffs only visible under light!!!!  ITS AS SIMPLE AS THAT!!!!  THE RECORDS STILL RETAIN THEIR ORIGINAL 'JUST PRESSED' LOOK AND LOOK AMAZING!!!!  It is also great to find that the records play as STUNNINGLY as the visual with NO pops, NO sticking, NO jumps, and barely ANY crackle AT ALL!!!!  The sound quality is simply SUPERB with NO groovewear and NO distortion either!!!!  The records must grade MINT(Minus)!!!!  WHAT AN AWESOME SET OF RECORDS!!!!  Believe me these records are NOT overgraded in ANY way!!!!  I use STRICT RC grading standards - it is not in my interest not to!!!! Brillant!!!!  The records come in their ORIGINAL 1st Press 'Picture/Lyric' inner sleeves which are in absolutely AMAZING condition!!!!  THE ULTRA RARE 1ST PRESS POSTER & 1ST PRESS UNMADE 'SPACE STATION' ARE BOTH IN MINT CONDITION!!!!  The ORIGINAL 1st Press 'Stickered' Cover is in absolutely SUPERB condition!!!!  It has NO edge wear, NO spinal wear (PERFECT side words & vertical spine!), barely ANY corner wear AT ALL (NOT through the colour!), NO splits, barely ANY creases AT ALL (cover is VERY flat looking indeed!), NO ringwear, NO rubbing, a TINY clear residue trace in the top right corner (this may be removeable - but as it is almost IMPOSSIBLE to see I wouldn't bother!), NO rips, NO tears, only some very VERY minor evidence of 'tipping in' to the corners, NO yellowing, NO annotations, and NO writing!!!!  The opening edges are beautifully straight with barely ANY feathering AT ALL!!!!  Even the inside of the cover is in SUPERB condition with NO yellowing, NO grubbyness, and NO writing!!!!  The cover must grade Excellent+ if not better!!!!  SUPERB COVER!!!!  THIS DOUBLE LP IS SERIOUSLY RARE AND VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND LIKE THIS - SO DONT MISS OUT ON THIS INCREDIBLE OPPORTUNITY!!!!

HAVE A LOOK AT MY PICTURES - I DO MY BEST TO SHOW THE RECORD FROM ALL ANGLES AND MAKE THE PICTURES AS CLEAR AS POSSIBLE - THERE IS NOTHING TO HIDE!!!!  It really is a GREAT looking LP and it is truly rare to find any copies of this MEGA RARE LP!!!!  THIS WILL BE YOUR ONLY CHANCE TO BUY AN ORIGINAL 1978 UK 'BLUE VINYL' 1ST PRESSING OF "OUT OF THE BLUE" BY THE ELECTRIC LIGHT ORCHESTRA, IN AMAZING CONDITION!!!!  Dont forget to take a look at all my other items including many other TOP LPs and contact me with any queries you may have.  Postal discounts for multiple buys are always available - and I guarantee to ALWAYS undercharge on postage!  Paypal, Bank Transfers, Cheques, International Money Orders, and Postal Orders accepted.

Though there are rarely ever any problems with my items (I always try my very best to describe everything exactly!) - PLEASE REMEMBER to contact with me FIRST, if you have any problems at all, before you leave feedback and star ratings, so I get a chance to turn any negative experience into a positive one!  I can always happily sort anything out for you, if you let me know you have a problem!  This way no one has to leave Negative/Neutral feedback - and we both walk away happy!  Please do NOT bid if you cannot give me at least 1 chance to sort everything out to your FULL satisfaction in the unlikely event of a problem.  Thanks again - Graham @ XXXRecords.

PLEASE NOTE - Private feedback bidders must consult me first prior to bidding - due to previous problems regarding non-payment, and non-receipt.   MY POSTAGE UNDERCHARGE GUARANTEE TO ALL BUYERS (I always undercharge on postage!):-  Due to UK Royal Mail's obscene price increases this year - I have had no choice but to increase postage charges a little.  Until this year - I had kept them exactly the same since I joined ebay back in 2002.  However this years price increases have been so obscene, that I have had no choice but to increase my postage charges for the first time ever.  However PLEASE NOTE - my absolute 100% guarantee to you as a buyer - is that I will ALWAYS undercharge postage on everything I send out.  Even after the increases, I am still charging you the buyer LESS than I am being charged myself.  On each package I send out - the price is clearly stated on the front of the package (please check it when you recieve it!).  I also do NOT charge for packaging costs - ONLY for postal costs!  And should you find that I have overcharged you postage in ANY way - I will refund DOUBLE the difference.  THAT IS MY 100% POSTAL GUARANTEE FOR EACH AND EVERY BUYER!  No buyer EVER deserves to be overcharged on postage - and on my listings, I'll make sure they are ALWAYS undercharged.  Any questions - please ask!
