Description
Hi, my name is Brian and I have been collecting vinyl for many years. My main interest has been PROGRESSIVE especially the VERTIGO SWIRL/SPIRAL LABEL, reputed to be the most collectable label in the world?
I have finally finished my SWIRL collection of over 160 albums of which most are UK pressings, and now I am going to SELL them ( I must be mad ). I have been quite fussy about the QUALITY, CONDITION and they must be the VERY FIRST PRESSINGS. The latter has been the hardest to decipher and has had me buying and selling many copies of the same album to achieve this,and I almost have with these collectable gems.
I am not and have never been a 'dealer' by profession, but I have always given honest descriptions and lots of clear photo's of any items I have sold. I do know how disappointing it is when you open that package and the item has been over sold with expressions such as "AWSOME" etc when the item is only in EX- condition or worse. If you are in anyway disappointed with an item from me you are most welcome to return it with a FULL REFUND, providing it is an honest and just mistake by myself as I believe in my descriptions.
SO HERE WE GO.......
For sale here is NUCLEUS / IAN CARR- UK ORIGINAL VERY FIRST PRESSING WITH VERY FIRST PRESSING SLEEVE,1971, stereo 6360 039 The 42nd of 87 UK pressings on this label.
SLEEVE.....GATEFOLD and UN-LAMINATED. This sleeve is in FANTASTIC condition.It is a GENUINE VERY FIRST PRESSING. This is an out-standing copy of this sleeve , it has that JUST OF THE PRESS look. It is very flat and square. The colours are very strong and vibrant LIKE NEW. The edges are N/MINT as is the spine. The front is N/MINT with NO RUBBING TO THE SURFACE, NO UNWANTED WRITING, NO STICKER TEARS, NO STICKERS, AND NO STAINING . The rear is in the same wonderful condition.The opening edges have NO FEATHERING and are AS NEW. The spine is FULLY legible and LOOKS NEW. The inside gatefold is in fantastic condition and looks MINT. The only other signs of wear ( and they are extremely minimal) is on the one of the corners. This album comes with IT'S ORIGINAL SWIRL INNER SLEEVE in great condition . All in all this is in wonderful condition for a 35year old sleeve.N/MINT
LABELS......This is a genuine first pressing. Both labels are in wonderful condition, beautifully white with only a couple of spindle marks on side A, and only a couple on side B!!! This album can only have been played on a handful of occasions. N/MINT.
VINYL....Both sides of this fantastic album still have their JUST PRESSED deep black shine. As for surface marks you have to hold this album in the very brightest of lights to see any kind of light surface marks !!! Ther is only one nasty mark otherwise it looks MINT(see picture). In normal daylight this album is PRISTINE. Side B plays WITHOUT SCRATCHES, CLICKS OR JUMPS. Unfortunately on side track 3 the mark can be felt and is a SCRATCH that causes some clicks but NO JUMPING or STICKING, otherwise this album is FAULTLESS (shame really). I have played this album on my very sensitive and revealing LINN SONDEK and the sound is UN-WORN, it is full and crisp there is NO loss of sound quality at all, wonderful sound stage and stereo seperation.This is a superb album and although not mint it is way above average condition. These HEAVY VINYL origional pressings are second to none. This really is a great copy that any collector would be delighted to add to their collection. ( the very, very few dust crackles could probably be removed by a professional clean ) VG++/N.MINT
THIS IS ONE OF THE UNDER RATED ALBUMS ON THIS LABEL AND GETTING VERY HARD TO FIND IN ANY CONDITION. SO DO NOT DISMISS THIS ONE.
Please do not hesitate to contact me with any questions.
I prefer payment by paypal, UK bidders may use a personal cheque.
GOOD LUCK bidding! Brian.
