ATTENTION RARE 1960s BEAT/BLUES GROUP COLLECTORS!HERE IS A VERY SCARCE ORIGINAL LP, RARELY SEEN IN THIS CONDITION BY THE JOHN MAYALL BLUESBREAKERS WITH ERIC CLAPTON: "BLUESBREAKERS".

THIS HIGHLY INFLUENCIAL ALBUM ALSO INCLUDES THE TALENTS OF JOHN McVIE(FLEETWOOD MAC) AND BRITISH JAZZ GIANTS ALAN SKIDMORE AND JOHN ALMOND.

 IT'S THE EARLIEST POSSIBLE UK MONO 1966 EDITION ON THE THICK PRESSED"GROOVED"AND "UNBOXED"DECCA LOGO LABELS IN FANTASTIC CONDITION AND A SUPER CLEAN LAMINATED FRONT COVER!

LK 4804+THE EARLIEST POSSIBLE 1A/1A MATRIXES. 

 IT HAS BEEN REPRESSED AND REISSUED A FEW TIMES ON A VARIETY OF DECCA LABEL DESIGNS,USUALLY WITH THE"BOXED"LOGO LABELS WHICH BEGAN AT THE END OF THE 1960s WHICH MOST SELLERS PROCLAIM TO BE THE ORIGINAL,BUT HERE IS THE EARLIEST DESIGN THAT WAS ISSUED FOR A VERY SHORT TIME WITH"GROOVED"LABELS-MANY UNBOXED LOGO BOX COPIES DON'T HAVE THE GROOVED DESIGN-JUST COMPARE!

HARDLY ANY COPIES HAVE SURVIVED LIKE THIS FANTASTIC EXAMPLE!

STRICTLY GRADED AS EXCELLENT CONDITION WITH GLEAMING SURFACES,JUST A FEW FAINT HAIRLINE SURFACE MARKS,THE COVER REMOVAL TYPE IN VERY STRONG LIGHT BUT IT IS CLEAR TO ME THAT THIS COPY HAS BARELY BEEN PLAYED AND HARDLY ANY SURFACE NOISE-UPGRADER STANDARD!

THE FEW COPIES THAT WERE SOLD 46 YEARS AGO IN 1966 WERE OFTEN PLAYED A LOT USUALLY USING ANCIENT,HEAVY AND AWFUL EQUIPMENT AND SO OFTEN TAKEN TO PARTIES RESULTING IN ALL KINDS OF DAMAGE!-THIS ONE HAS HARDLY BEEN PLAYED AT ALL WITH THAT "JUST PRESSED"LOOK! NO NASTY DISTORTION AS PRESENT ON THE MAJORITY OF COPIES THAT SURVIVE! NO CLICKS,NO JUMPS,NO STICKS! CLEAN LABELS-ONLY VERY SLIGHT SPINDLE WEAR!

A COPY THAT HAS HARDLY BEEN USED, OBVIOUSLY CHERISHED AND WELL CARED FOR BY ONE OWNER SINCE 1966! PLEASE SEE THE PHOTOS OF THE FRONT AND BACK OF THE COVER!

NOTHING TO HIDE!

ONE OF THE BEST MONO 1ST EDITION COPIES I HAVE FOUND IN 25 YEARS AS A DEALER SPECIALISING IN 1960s RECORDS!

THE LAMINATED FRONT COVER PRINTED BY MacNEILL PRESS LONDON HAS A FEW TINY EDGE CREASES BUT NO WRITING,STAINING,RIPS OR REPAIRS.

NOTE THE WHITENESS AND BRIGHTNESS OF THE BACK OF THE COVER IN PHOTO #2!

 A REAL JOY FOR ANY 1960s BLUES GROUP FAN!

NO HORRIBLE SMOKE OR DAMP SMELL AS SO OFTEN THE CASE WITH SUCH OLD LPs!

THIS LP ITSELF IS STRICTLY GRADED IN EXCELLENT CONDITION AND COULD BE YOUR LAST OPPORTUNITY TO OWN ONE OF THE RAREST AND BEST OF ALL THE 1960s BRITISH BLUES LPs!

MOST WILL REMAIN ON COLLECTORS SHELVES!

 THIS IS A LOVELY PRESSING!

THIS 1ST ISSUE FROM 1966 HAS FAR MORE BASS AND MUCH THICKER VINYL AS WELL AS A MUCH THICKER COVER THAN LATER 1970s and 1980s REISSUES WHICH HAD WAFER THIN VINYL!

GREAT VOCALS AND GUITARWORK WITH  WARM SOUNDING VINYL + AMAZING BASS!

GREAT INVESTMENT!!!
