Description
Frank Zappa Hot Rats RARE & GENUINE 1st UK Press 1969 Vinyl LP VG+/EX conditions. Condition is "Used". Dispatched with Royal Mail 2nd Class, FREE postage for UK buyers (not including Channel Islands).
Sleeve looks great and presents lightly rubbed corners, a bit of spine wear although text is fully legible (a rarity for sleeves that are over 50 years old!) and lovely bright and crisp colours. There are some tiny creases around the edges and a tiny round sticker on the top left hand side corner (this can probably be removed but I will leave this task to the new owner!). Overall in VG+ but not too far from EX conditions.
Vinyl has a superb sheen to it, clean labels and presents some hairlines/marks on both sides (shown in pictures) but these do not affect playback. I have recently listened to it and playback was excellent, with minimal and really low background noise. All in all in VG+ if not in EX conditions.
Matrix/Runouts: RSLP 6356 A1 (side A) - RSLP 6356 B1 (side B)
This is the REAL and GENUINE 1st UK Press of this classic Frank Zappa album, and can easily be identified by the Bizarre logo + Warner Arts & Reprise combined rounded logo on the top right corner of the front sleeve with the Bizarre category number 6356 below it (later pressings have the Reprise category number 44078 and the Warner Arts logo is missing), but also for the tri-colour quadrant labels (later pressings have full yellow labels) and the Pye distribution text on labels is covered with black overprint.
Please note that I will be cleaning the vinyl after the sale so that the new owner can enjoy an even better sound quality.
Please have a look at the pictures and should you want to see more (eBay ads are limited to a maximum of 12), please do not hesitate to contact me and I will gladly send more. I am also happy to send audio samples, provide further description and answer any questions you might have!
