Description
Up for bids is an original pressing of Linda McCartney’s only solo LP, WIDE PRAIRIE. When released [1998] this album was primarily issued as a CD in a time where vinyl pressing were an afterthought at best making this pressing an instant rarity. The copy being offered here is in very good condition. It’s not sealed or factory fresh by any means but due to the scarcity it retains its collectibility. Play testing reviles some intermittent background noise. I own 2 other copies with one being purchased new. All 3 have the same quality so I will assume the mastering of this album was not top notch at the time of release. That being said it still sounds great at times with the occasional vinyl reminders coming and going. I’m being honest here and don’t want you expecting a perfect record. I’ll say the cover has some flaws also. The upper left front cover has a few tiny staple punchers that don’t go all the way through but pass half way in. Please fan out the photos. There is some of what might be light remnants of a sticker on the upper right front cover that is removable but I’ll leave that to the new owner. It can be a bit time consuming and the care it would take to remove is something I am unable to do at this time (I’ve done it many times in the past). So here it is. A very hard to find album produced in very low numbers that is basically Paul & Wings with Linda on lead vocals throughout and Paul handling the backups. Even in off, but by no means bad, condition a very necessary album to be included within the McCARTNEY catalogue. There honestly are a few gems within the tracks of this obscure collection. The back cover alone makes it a must. Oh yeah let me talk about this a bit. Please notice l have included a picture of 2 copies on one another to show the back cover of the one being offered is not damaged as the back cover photo includes what looks like a scratch passing horizontally but is actually part of the original photo. I’m really trying to let you know what you can expect when the album arrives in your collection. I know it will fetch a fair price and don’t want anyone disappointed. I appreciate your patience in reading this description and hope you will stop by my weekly auctions for more truly rare Beatles and related pressings I intend on listing over the next year or so. Thanks again for considering any of my listings.
PS: Selling my personal collection accrued over 5 decades. Will be listing a few auctions a week. Many very rare BEATLES and related items among other artists. Please check in from time to time if you are a completist like me.
I’ll ship this international but will have to figure out that shipping after the auction ends. I’ll ship it the most cost efficient way most likely USPS first class out of the USA. If you are international please wait for me to contact you after the auction. Thanks
