Description

Here we have a copy of Elton John "Goodbye Yellow Brick Road" 1978 vinyl LP UK Pressing on Limited Edition yellow coloured vinyl.
Cover = VG Tri-Fold out cover has some wear from age as pictured but in lovely condition overall and all intact. Vinyl = VG This particular copy had quite a few surface marks when I'd purchased years ago (more for its rarity and the fine example of the cover), and unfortunately exhibits surface noise whilst playing as a result. There are no deep scratches however and plays through perfectly without any skips or jumps. Includes original hype sticker as pictured.
All LPs are from my personal collection.

YELLOW-LIMITED-VERSION is etched in runout matrix on UK version with A3/B3/C3/D3 numbers. It's not there on the UK version with A4/B4/C4/D4 Please note: All of the items that I sell are from my own personal collection. This is a collection that I have added to and maintained for over 30 years. This is an eclectic collection and there are some recent, some vintage and some very rare records which will be listed on ebay over time. I am not a store, or a business. I am a private collector, selling off some of my personal collection so that they may find new homes and new ears for enjoyment.

I always ship LPs in proper LP Mailer packaging and place the record (in it's protective sleeve) outside the cover to avoid splits and damage to the covers. Whatever is required to get it safely through the post to you. I try and describe each LP as best as possible, please look closely at the pictures and descriptions of the cover, vinyl and any inserts...as always if you have any questions, please send them through eBay and I will respond as quickly as possible. I can also provide more specific pictures if you require them please just ask. I am happy to combine postage if you win more than one of my listings. Please wait for an invoice, or message me, before completing checkout and payment so I can adjust the postage accordingly. Many thanks.
