Description
Moby Grape “Moby Grape” 1st press LP on CBS S 63090 from 1967 in superb condition “Made in England” text. Stereo. This rare psych-rock LP sounds as good as the day it was pressed, thanks to being well looked-after by its one owner, and only having a few careful plays. The vinyl looks new and sounds new, remember this is 41 years old! There is a light static sound at the run in grooves which no doubt would clean up perfectly, the audio is superb, and visually the vinyl is un-marked and close to MINT!! The sleeve is excellent, always kept in a protective cover, and has no wear and no fading!! The laminate on the front has lifted slightly at the bottom and top edge, and apart from light handling creases near the spine is perfectly flat and quite new-looking!! The back cover is un-laminated, and has some light finger marks – it is predominantly black, so does show this up – and is not creased or marked, although there is a pin-hole at the top left corner where it was pinned up on the wall in the record shop!! Crazy days!! Very flat and nice looking sleeve, probably grading VG++/EX. Overall it’s a great copy of a great old LP from the summer of love, and has the classic CBS vinyl mastering; they really were very good at rock LPs, a much nicer sound than CDs, as we know!! You would find it hard to locate a better copy! The vinyl is certainly EX++ if not better. It must be worth £20.00!!! PLEASE READ; I am selling a one-owner record collection over the next few weeks. Check my feedback to see what’s gone before. Most LPs look close to MINT, and all have been fastidiously well looked after from new in protective sleeves, including the copies from the 1960’s. All have been carefully played, of course, so an EX+ is about as good an honest grade as you will see. Even with no marks, if it is played it cannot accurately be described as MINT! That is an absolute “still in the shop” condition to me. But trust me that All are high grade with any defects noted, no matter how trivial. ALL LPs I’m listing are worth collecting, there’s no boot sale rubbish here! There are some real classics. Ask any & all questions BEFORE BIDDING. Zero or negative bidders please contact before bidding, or bid will be removed. All funds must clear before shipping. Postage & packing is at as near cost as possible to estimate, I pay any overcharge, I refund any difference. Insurance may be needed (at cost) depending on the post service used. If no insurance is taken, I cannot be held responsible for damage that may occur. I use professional heavy mailer envelopes, with card stiffeners. This is included in the shipping costs. The records are usually removed from the outer sleeve for shipping. Shipping & packing is at cost, and for a single album is £2.95 first class, and £5.25 special delivery inc. insurance within the UK. The international shipping cost below is an illustration only and usually is much cheaper! For multiple purchases I cost them on the actual shipping to save you as much as possible. This can take a while so please be patient and ask questions early! I am sometimes away from the computer for a day or so, please leave plenty of time for answers. Please email for any other quotes if you are unsure, or if you have any other questions, BEFORE bidding! You can have any postal service you want, please bear in mind that costs are based upon size, weight, destination and insurance value (if required). I cannot be responsible for the time it takes, although I generally post items same or next day where possible. Larger items can need specialist materials. After that, it depends upon the service you requested. I do not make a profit from shipping, and the packing costs are partly included. Any extra is paid by me, and that goes for all costs. If you overpay shipping costs for any reason, I refund the difference by Paypal after real costs are determined. OK? Please ask if unsure!
