APPLE ACETATE LP

What you are looking at is a top the range rarity.Over theyears dealing withacetatesI have learntthat some artists seem to produce acetates galore whereasothers almost zero. This is only the second one I have had from ELP and its a belter. Not only is it from The Beatles cutting room its in fabulous condition.However I must apologise for the scan-my machine seems to causing slight blurring of the image, God knows why!! But I can assure you in reality its completly clearI have listed the timings on the release copy

but there are tiny variations as written on the label of the acetate. I have scanned both a and b labels and as you will see there are also variations in the spelling of certain tracks in comparison with the issue.

This really is a fantastic item and should not be missed by collectors of both APPLE AND ELP.
