Description
HERE WE HAVE ANOTHER CLASSIC ALBUM FROM MY PRIVATE PINK FLOYD COLLECTION. THIS IS A GENUINE UK FIRST PRESS, RELEASED ON 14th MAY 1971. NEARLY 37 YEARS OLD, AND IN THE MOST AMAZING CONDITION POSSIBLE. OUT OF ALL THE FLOYD ALBUMS I OWN, THIS IS THE ONLY ONE THAT EVER MADE MY WIFE DROOL AND GO "WOW"!! I THINK THIS IS JUST THAT ITS CONDITION LEAPS OUT AT YOU, WITH THE COVER BEING SO PURE WHITE.
I GOT THIS FROM AN OLD FRIEND OF MINE WHO USED TO HAVE A RECORD SHOP IN THE 60/70/80s, AND THIS WAS UNSOLD STOCK THAT ENDED UP IN A BOX IN A CUPBOARD. THIS HAS NOT SEEN DAYLIGHT FOR MANY YEARS, AND THIS HAS HAD THE EFFECT OF KEEPING IT IN PRISTINE CONDITION. IT IS HARD TO DESCRIBE HOW WHITE AND UNMARKED THE COVER IS. THIS LP IS ALWAYS LET DOWN BY THE FLIMSY WHITE CARD USED, AND NOT MANY LOOK GOOD THIS MANY YEARS ON. THIS ONE IS MINT. THE GARROD AND LOFTHOUSE TEXTURED COVER IS BREATHTAKING. THE INNER SLEEVE IS PERFECT, AND THE LABELS AND HEAVYWEIGHT VINYL ARE VIRGIN. MINT. THIS HAS NEVER BEEN PLAYED. EVER. NO SPINDLE MARKS, NO MARKS ON THE VINYL AT ALL. THIS IS WHAT YOU WOULD GET FROM THE SHOP IF IT WAS BEING PRESSED TODAY.
I DONT NEED TO TELL YOU THAT COPIES LIKE THIS ARE EXTREMELY RARE, AND MY ADVICE TO YOU IS BUY IT!! YOU WILL NEVER HAVE TO UPGRADE THIS COPY. WHAT COULD YOU POSSIBLY UPGRADE IT TO? THIS IS THE TRACK LIST:-
ARNOLD LAYNE
INTERSTELLAR OVERDRIVE
SEE EMILY PLAY
REMEMBER A DAY
PAINTBOX
JULIA DREAM
CAREFUL WITH THAT AXE, EUGENE
CIRRUS MINOR
THE NILE SONG
BIDING MY TIME
BIKE
OVER 50 MINUTES OF VERY EARLY FLOYD. TRACKS ARE FROM 1967, 1968, 1969 AND 1971. THE CATALOGUE NUMBER IS SRS 5071 AND RELEASED ON THE DARK BLUE STARLINE LABEL. HAVE A GOOD LOOK AT MY FEEDBACK, AND BID WITH TOTAL CONFIDENCE. MY PACKING IS SUBSTANTIAL AND ROBUST. I WILL SELL WORLDWIDE, AND WILL OFFER POSTAGE AND INSURANCE OPTIONS AT THE END OF SALE. THIS IS A RARE ALBUM IN THIS CONDITION. YOU MAY NEVER SEE ONE AS PRISTINE AGAIN. DONT MISS IT.
FIRST PRESS. TEXTURED COVER IS MINT. INNER SLEEVE IS MINT. LABELS ARE MINT. VINYLS ARE MINT. THIS HAS NEVER SEEN A TURNTABLE IN ITS 37 YEAR LIFE. YOU WILL NEVER GET A BETTER COPY THAN THIS. EVER. GOOD LUCK.
