NICK DRAKE

BRYTER LATER



Year of Release: 1970

First press Matrix Nos: ILPS 9134 A-1U & ILPS 9134 B-1U .

The producer : Joe Boyd The engineer John Wood

Classic STEREO only album on Pink rim Palm tree Island records, this is one of the rarest.. This is the one most collectors want and is regarded as a mini-classic blending folk & introspective elements. This very heavy pressing on the original labels is one of the earliest ever made and it plays beautifully. With just a tiny few ultra faint surface blemishes on the record, it has faired well for its considerable vintage, all evidence strongly suggests very few plays.

Cover Grade : VG average wear over the last 41 years with edge/spine/corner wear.

Cover Summary: An average example of this very fragile 1970 cover. They nearly all have this kind of wear. Do not underestimate just how delicate, light and flimsy this highly damage-prone cover is, made even more so with a very heavy record inside.

Vinyl Condition/Visual Grading: EX- and with any few surface marks light and faint. Finding a genuine first pressed copy of this elusive Island classic better will prove hard. A super visual copy that is super clean, shiny, intense black and very heavily pressed. A copy with only light use on all the evidence. Visually a super record that should please many collectors.
Sound Quality and Audio Grading: This wonderful record plays even above its high visual grading with practically nothing to fault. Strong, distortion-free sound, all frequencies are sharp and clear - sound quality is very high with a wide dynamic range and very detailed sound. Any surface sounds are minimal indeed and no significant pops or clicks were noted and this is an exceptional clean pressing. Few copies will outperform this very early pressing significantly I feel sure. Both channels are clean and sharp, I am certain this record has been played very lightly and has been carefully handled. These vintage albums rarely escape a few faint surface blemishes or hairlines and this example sets the bar high. Nothing spoilt my pleasure when play-grading this wonderful record. This copy will prove very difficult to find significantly better and can be strongly recommended. If the quality of the sound and music is a priority over cover and minor visual blemishes, this could be the copy you have been waiting for.
