Description
ATTENTION 1970s BRITISH JAZZ/ROCK/FUNK FUSION ALBUM COLLECTORS! HERE IS AN ORIGINAL 1973 STEREO 1ST ISSUE OF THE CLASSIC HARRY ROCHE CONSTELLATION ALBUM:"SPIRAL" ON IT'S EARLIEST UK ISSUE ON PYE WHICH INCLUDES THE EPIC TITLE TRACK AS WELL AS FUNKY BREAKS ON OTHER TRACKS INCLUDING TOP BRITISH SESSION MUSICIANS.IT VERY RARELY TURNS UP IN 2018 AS BACK IN 1973 THERE WAS VERY LITTLE SALES OR ATTENTION FOR THIS LP WHICH WAS PROBABLY DELETED WITHIN A FEW MONTHS OF ISSUE.IT'S THE BEST COPY I HAVE FOUND IN YEARS AS A DEALER. PYE NSPL 41024 WITH THE EARLIEST POSSIBLE A-1/B-1 MATRIXES WITH THICK VINYL-MUCH THICKER THAN LATER 1970s LPs. HOUSED IN THE ORIGINAL PLAIN WHITE CURVED EDGES INNER SLEEVE.MOST BUYING LPs IN 1973 WERE USING OLD,HEAVY EQUIPMENT THAT WOULD WEAR OUT ANY RECORD VERY QUICKLY. THIS EXAMPLE HAS HAD SOME MINIMAL USE BUT PLAYS SUPERB. LOCATING A REALLY OUTSTANDING 1973 COPY IS ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE AS THE MAJORITY OF COPIES WERE PLAYED OVER AND OVER AGAIN CAUSING MAJOR DISTORTION AND GENERAL WEAR. THIS COPY HAS HAD SOME CAREFUL USE WITH GLEAMING SURFACES WITH ONLY A COUPLE OF TINY AND FAINT SURFACE MARKS. HARDLY ANY SURFACE NOISE. THE 1973 PRESSINGS HAVE FAR MORE BASS THAN LATER ISSUES. THE RECORD HAS NO LOUD CLICKS,NO STICKS OR JUMPS.STRICTLY AND SERIOUSLY GRADED AS NEAR MINT CONDITION! LOVELY THICK VINYL. THERE IS NO SPINDLE WEAR AND NO LABEL WRITING OR STAINING. THE LAMINATED FRONT COVER HAS A FEW TINY EDGE CREASES BUT NO WRITING,RIPS OR REPAIRS! PLEASE SEE ALL THE PHOTOS SHOWING THE FRONT AND BACK OF THE COVER AND BOTH OF THE LABELS! NOTHING TO HIDE! A LOW,REALISTIC £12 STARTING PRICE WITH MORE GREAT LPs FROM ME ON EBAY THIS WEEK AND TO FOLLOW SO CHECK THEM OUT!.
PERSONAL COLLECTION IS WELCOME FROM MY SHOP IN NORWICH AT A MUTUALLY CONVENIENT TIME.
Over the years I have helped to add to the collections of many collectors and given my experience, I am aware of the titles that are GENUINE RARE ITEMS.
Now of course for those who are"chained"to the record collector price guide books,for whom I am one of the main consultants, the prices are still a SUGGESTION and as we all know ACTUAL prices SOLD can vary.
The sellers on ebay who continually put"listed"or "list price"on everything should be aware of this!!!!
This is my honest grading!!!
Please see my listening policy below.
I test on a lightweight pickup of approx 2 grammes and listen with the treble full on and no filtering or mono switch used.As both a collector and dealer,I AM VERY STRICT ON GRADING but DO CHECKOUT MY FEEDBACK FOR GRADING PROOF!!!!
