JOHN LEE HOOKER
IT SERVE YOU RIGHT TO SUFFER
VERY RARE MONO !!!!
ORIGINAL 1966 UK 1ST PRESS, AND PLAYS REALLY WELL, WITH NOTHING SERIOUS, BUT PLEASE READ THE AUDIO DESCRIPTION, THANK YOU, AND COMES FULLY COMPLETE, AND PRESSED OFF THE FIRST MOTHER, WITH 1st AND 2nd STAMPERS !!!!
THIS IS THE ONE AND ONLY, MR JOHN LEE HOOKER, WHO WAS FROM TUTWILER, MISSISSIPPI, AND ONE OF THE GREATEST BLUES ARTISTS OF ALL TIME. THIS IS A VERY RARE ORIGINAL RELEASED IN 1966, AND A HIS MASTERS VOICE UK 1ST PRESS, AND WILL BE A VERY SAD LOSS FROM MY TREASURED PERSONAL VINYL COLLECTION !!!!
DISCLAIMER :: ALL MY LP'S LISTED ON THIS SITE ARE ORIGINAL AND NOT FAKE OR COUNTERFEIT, AND ARE SOLD IN GOOD FAITH. THEY WERE BOUGHT ON THE DATE OF ISSUE. THANK YOU !! 
THIS IS AN ORIGINAL 1966 UK 1ST PRESS :: A 9103  A-1 :: A 9103 B-1 .
PRESSED OFF THE FIRST MOTHER, WITH 2nd AND 1st STAMPERS  ::  1  R  ::  1  G .
'SOLD IN THE UK SUBJECT TO RESALE' LABEL TEXT .
'THE GRAMOPHONE CO LTD' RIM TEXT .

ON THE HIS MASTERS VOICE LABEL :: CLP 3542 .

COVER ::  ORIGINAL FRONT LAMINATED FLIPBACK MONO, PRINTED AND MADE BY GARROD & LOFTHOUSE Ltd, PATENTS PENDING, WITH SOLID SPINE AND EDGES WITH A SMALL RUB ON THE CORNERS. NO LAMINATE LIFT, JUST SOME LAMINATE CREASE LINES AROUND THE EDGES. THE BACK IS FREE FROM WRITING, BUT DOES HAVE AGE RELATED MARKING AS YOU CAN SEE IN THE PHOTO, AND THE OPENING EDGE IS STILL SHARP, JUST A HINT OF LIGHT FEATHERING NOTHING NASTY, SO WITH NOTHING ELSE, I WOULD GRADE  :: VG+ . PLEASE LOOK AT THE PHOTOS FOR A FAR BETTER VISUAL DESCRIPTION, THANK YOU !!!!

VINYL :: PLAYS WELL, WITH NOTHING NASTY ON THE AUDIO, AS YOU WILL SEE BELOW, AND DUE TO HOW RARE THIS VINYL IS, I WILL DO A TRACK BY TRACK AUDIO DESCRIPTION......

ON SIDE 1 :: TRACK 1 :: THERE IS A SINGLE FAINT TICK IN THE MIDDLE, EIGHT FAINT TICKS TOWARDS THE END, THREE MORE A BIT FURTHER ON, AND A COUPLE AT THE VERY END.

THERE ARE A FEW FAINT TICKS BETWEEN TRACKS .

TRACK 2 :: HAS SOME FAINT TICKS UP UNTIL JUST OVER HALF WAY .

TRACK 3 :: PLAYS FINE WITH NOTHING TO MENTION .

TRACK 4 :: PLAYS FINE WITH NOTHING TO MENTION, WITH FOUR FAINT TICKS AT THE VERY END .

NOW THE AUDIO ON TRACK 1 AND TRACK 2 HAS QUITE A FEW FAINT TICKS, AS MENTIONED, BUT HONESTLY NOTHING LOUD OR INTRUSIVE, BUT CAN BE HEARD, AND CERTAINLY DO NOT SPOIL THE AUDIO. IF THEY WERE LOUD AND ANNOYING, THEN THE VINYL WOULD BE HANGING IN A FRAME ON MY WALL !!!!

ON SIDE 2 :: TRACK 1 :: PLAYS FINE WITH NOTHING TO MENTION .

TRACK 2 :: PLAYS FINE WITH NOTHING TO MENTION, JUST A SINGLE FAINT TICK, AFTER THE START, AND ANOTHER ONE IN THE MIDDLE .

TRACK 3 :: PLAYS FINE WITH NOTHING TO MENTION, WITH JUST THREE FAINT TICKS AFTER THE START.

THERE ARE TWO FAINT TICKS BETWEEN TRACKS.

TRACK 4 :: PLAYS FINE WITH NOTHING TO MENTION. 

SO AS YOU HAVE JUST READ, NOTHING NASTY ON THE AUDIO, SO NO SKIPS, STICKS, JUMPS, STATIC OR CRACKLE !!

VISUALLY, UNDER BRIGHT LIGHT THERE ARE SOME COSMETIC SLEEVE REMOVAL SPIDER WEB THREAD ULTRA FINE LINES AND SOME SMALL COSMETIC HAIRLINES. ON TRACK 1 ON SIDE 1, THERE IS A SMALL SLIGHTLY FEELABLE HAIRLINE, AND ALSO, A THIN VERY SLIGHTLY FEELABLE SCUFF LINE AT THE END OF TRACK 1, AND AT THE START OF TRACK 2, AND ALSO ANOTHER TINY VERY SLIGHTLY FEELABLE HAIRLINE AFTER THE START OF TRACK 2. NOW IF YOU LOOK BACK TO THE AUDIO DESCRIPTION, THEN YOU WILL SEE THAT THESE ARE WHAT CAUSE THOSE FAINT TICKS, WHICH ARE NOT INTRUSIVE, BUT CAN BE HEARD !!!!

I AM GOING TO HAVE TO SPLIT THE AUDIO GRADE, SO...

TRACK 1, AND TRACK 2 ON SIDE 1, I WOULD GRADE THE AUDIO ::  VG . 

TRACK 3, AND TRACK 4, ON SIDE 1, AND ALL TRACKS ON SIDE 2, I WILL PLAY IT SAFE, AND WOULD GRADE THE AUDIO ::  EX/EX- .

LABELS :: NO ISSUES, LOVELY AND CLEAN, JUST SOME FAINT SPINDLE LINES AT THE CENTRE SEEN UNDER BRIGHT LIGHT ::  EX .

ORIGINAL INNER :: NO SPLITS, OR WRITING BUT THE POLYLINER IS MISSING, AND THE VINYL WILL COME IN A NEW BLACK POLYLINED INNER ALONG WITH THE ORIGINAL DESCRIBED ABOVE :: VG+ .

SO THERE YOU HAVE IT, A VERY RARE MONO UK 1ST PRESS 1966 HIS MASTERS VOICE, THAT PLAYS VERY WELL AND AS DESCRIBED ABOVE. THERE ARE SOME COSMETICS AND A COUPLE OF OTHER MORE NOTICEABLE LOOKING MARKS AS ALSO DESCRIBED ABOVE, SO NOT THE BEST LOOKING UNDER BRIGHT LIGHT, BUT AWAY FROM BRIGHT LIGHT, NOT TOO BAD. IT DOES PLAY WITH NOTHING INTRUSIVE, OF COURSE NOT FOR THE PERFECTIONIST, BUT STILL A GREAT VINYL TO LISTEN TO !!!! THANK YOU AS ALWAYS FOR YOUR TIME !!! ROSE.
