Description
JIMI HENDRIX " ELECTRIC LADYLAND " DOUBLE ALBUM 1st UK PRESSING
Released in 1968 on "TRACK RECORD" 613 008/9 stereo VERY RARE
Condition:- VERY GOOD / EXCELLENT
I bought this Album in 1968 the week it was released. It was a special order from my
local record shop and was never allowed to be put out on display, due to the "Nude Ladies"
in fact my copy was inverted so that they were not visible ! It was played on a high
quality record deck for that era (Thorens 125 turntable, SME arm with Shure V15
cartridge.) It was always cleaned with a high quality record cleaner and stored in a plastic
outer sleeve for protection. I am not a record dealer, I am just selling off my own private
Album collection.

THE COVER
The COVER is a GATEFOLD in a VERY GOOD / EXCELLENT condition.
The whole ALBUM COVER is in a HIGH GLOSS LAMINATED finish. It is VERY CLEAN
and all the CORNERS are FIRM and TRUE. Inside the GATEFOLD the Ladies are
BEAUTIFUL and CLEAN with a VERY HIGH GLOSS SUPERB finish. The SPINE is FIRM
and TRUE with just a little area of raised laminate about 8cms long.
The BACK COVER only has very faint biro writing which says " November 1968 " which
is over Mitch Mitchell's face. There is also a faint mark where the price label had been
stuck. Otherwise this side is BEAUTIFULLY CLEAN. The other side with the picture of
JIMI HENDRIX is BEAUTIFUL and CLEAN with only one small defect of a white scuff
mark on the right hand side of the sleeve to JIMI'S head, as seen in my photographs with
a light scuff mark on the same sleeve edge. The SLEEVE OPENING has a minute scuffing
on the back cover. For an ALBUM that is 40 years old ! and has been with me all this time
I'll be sad to let it go.
THE VINYL RECORD 1. SIDE A & D
The VINYL is in EXCELLENT condition. It is in a MIRROR finish and is VERY CLEAN.
There are no scratches. The LABELS have one minute SPINDLE mark on each side, hard to
see. The SOUND QUALITY is SUPERB, it has a BRIGHT, CLEAN and DETAILED SOUND.
There are just a few very light pops and crackles here and there on both sides, mainly in-
between the tracks. The ALBUM played BEAUTIFULLY throughout from beginning to end
on the TEST PLAY which was on my REGA PLANAR 3 with ORTOFON cartridge.
THE VINYL RECORD 2. SIDE B & C
The VINYL is in VERY GOOD / EXCELLENT condition. It is VERY CLEAN with MIRROR
finish. There are no scratches. The LABELS are VERY CLEAN and there are no visible
SPINDLE marks. There are some fine crackles throughout the Album here and there.
The Album played BEAUTIFULLY throughout the TEST PLAY. The minor faults do not
effect the quality of the music. For this VERY RARE and SOUGHT AFTER double Album of
JIMI HENDRIX'S, and being 40 years old, it is surely a JIMI HENDRIX fan's GEM.
If you have any questions please feel free to email me.

PEDRO'S VINYL
I have been collecting Albums since 1964 and have amassed a fantastic collection of
rare LPs. I recently made the traumatic decision to sell off my collection to finance other
ventures. I have always been obsessive about playing my LPs on the best audio equipment
for that era. My LPs have always been stored in specially made Album units to keep them
free from dust and heat. Thank you for looking and good luck with your bidding, PEDRO.
