Description

You are bidding on the most: rarest,colourful and sought after Kinks Mexican LP.

THE KINKS - EL DISCO DE ORO DE LOS KINKS - Pye/Gamma GX 01 -278

This LP has the most astounding, colourful psych laminated sleeve of it's era - see the part scans, the whole LP would not fit on my scanner !

Whilst Mexican EP's are sought after and attract a premium - they were the predominate format for this country, and are far easier to find than LP's. LP's because of the original purchase price was significantly higher an were produced in limited quantities, and as such are infinatley rarer than the EP format - and all mexican LP's are very hard to track down.

This is probably the hardest and most sought after Mexican LP, and is rarely offered for sale.

I know many fellow collectors who have struggled to find the Mexican LP's.

Condition - Please read carefully:

This record is not in mint condition. I have been collecting Kinks records seriously for nearly 30 years, and I have never seen a truly mint Mexican EP or LP, largely due to the flimsy manufacture of the sleeves and poor quality control in pressing process. This one is no exception - it very unusual indeed, for a Mexican record from this era in anything better than VG +. I grade the record as follows.

Front Sleeve: G+

back sleeve: F

Record: VG.

The record has a name written on one side of the label and there are some light spindle marks on both sides. The front and back of the sleeveis creased with some small areas of laminate lifting on the front, the back is in a slightly worse condition, highlighted by the white than the front. Ring wear is evident on the front and the back. The back of the sleeve around the edges shows signs of dirt, and there is a name in the top left hand side.

The above not-with-standing this is a very rare LP with superb and colourful image of the Kinks.

I have described the condition honestly and accurately, and the LP is therefore sold on a "as is" basis
