Fair Weather - Beginning From an End

Neon NE1 1971 UK

Condition Vinyl EX/Sleeve VG+

This is the Very Rare original UK pressing on the Obscure `Neon` Label in `E.J.Day` Gatefold sleeve - matrix/run out groove ZGBS 0454 A-3/ZGBS 0455 B-4

Rarity - YES! Absolutely! Neon was RCA`s early 70`s prog rock label, the same as the likes of EMI`s Harvest, Vertigo and Dawn etc! most of what they released was obscure, produced in very low quantities and sold poorly - so anything on the Neon label is a real find, even more so if it plays as well as this one!!

Vinyl - Nice THICK VINYL, Plays FAB, Looks great under normal light - under bright spotlight scrutiny I can see there are some light  paper scuffs from being taken out of inner sleeve! - Comes with original `UK` white inner sleeve!!

Labels - UNMARKED & CLEAN, even under bright light I cant see any Spindle Marks, this LP has had some play, definitely not been over played - the wonderful label design on this is still vibrant in colour on side A and jet black on side B with - `Manufactured in England` credits

Sleeve - `E.J.Day` Gatefold, matt finish so prone to the usual wear, readable spine, has edge wear, NO Ringwear, Some feathering on opening, very small label damage top right front, on the front on the girls arm you can see in the photos the `Boots record shop stamp` in purple from the original sale

Tracklisting:

God Cried Mother/Dont Mess With Cupid/Dead and Past/Beginning From an End/I Hear You Knocking

You Aint no Friend/Sit and Think/Looking for the Red Label/Poor Mans Bum a Run

Just a note on Grading - I always play grade my records right through and unless stated they do not jump, skip or stick when played!!! I always view the vinyl under a very bright halogen spotlight!!! Why? because although I have excellent vision when viewed under a normal light or even worse a fluorescent tube (most shops have these) the vinyl will not show up how marked it truly is - some view records in daylight but this has to be done in direct sunlight to see the hidden marks - I do this so that I can give the full picture and should please even the most `critical` of collectors. Also I photograph the WHOLE of the cover (I don't cut off the corners or edge) so you can see as close as possible what you will receive!!

Postage/packing: I use new professional record mailers with several cardboard stiffeners to protect the cover - the record will be placed in a NEW clean inner sleeve, removed from the record cover (saves ringwear/pushing through seams) and together with original old inner placed in a NEW pvc outer sleeve - I also include recorded delivery as standard in the overall cost in the UK (70p) it covers up to £30 in case of loss - it will be optional for international packages (as it is more expensive) but still advisable! - please note complete postage charges (below) before bidding!

Payment - I am quite patient but if I have waited a couple of weeks for money and sent reminders unless there is a good reason I will claim back my fees and give a nonpaying bidder strike - I don't charge for Paypal!

Returns - If you feel there are any problems with an item you have purchased please feel free to contact me - I will be glad to discuss the matter as I want people to be happy with their purchase!!!
