Patto: 'Patto', 1970, Vinyl LP, VERY RARE, Vertigo label, Ex./Mint, UK

	£		207
	$		274

I am selling my vinyl LPs. They have all been purchased new from local record stores and I have cherished them to keep them in the best possible condition. They have only ever been played on quality hifi equipment, never used at parties and never loaned out. I am the only person who has ever put them on a turntable.

Patto; 'Patto', 1970, Vinyl LP, super rare, exceptionally good condition. 
I have loved this band since I first heard them in a live Radio 1 'Sounds of the Seventies' program with Stuart Henry (remember him?). What caught my ear was the guitar playing of Ollie Halsall, who remains one of my favourite UK players. Saw them live and they were fabulous, especially when Ollie played the vibraphone, very, very unusual in a British rock band. You'll hear it on this album. This LP can be obtained as a re-release but this is an original. The Vertigo label is highly collectible, being the place where many great British rock bands of the seventies were given a home (Black Sabbath, for instance). It was unique in that the track listings for both sides were printed on side B of the label, side A being given over entirely to the swirl. Giddy stuff!

CATALOGUE NUMBER: 6360 016
RECORD LABEL: Vertigo
MATRIX MARKS: 6360 016 1Y//2v420 1 1 4     6360 032 2Y//3v420 1 1 1
SLEEVE CONDITION: Excellent. The embossed gatefold sleeve is in brilliant condition for its age. There is a slight run mark top left, which I have pictured, and some other slight marks where the bright yellow coating has worn where it was stored on a shelf. Two tiny marks of the back cover. The inside of the folding cover is perfect. The spine is a little faded but there are no creases. 
INNER SLEEVE CONDITION: Excellent. This LP has a plain paper inner with polythene liner.
LABEL CONDITION: Mint. No spindle marks or other blemishes of any kind. I was always scrupulously careful about how I placed the record on the turntable so as to avoid any damage to the label. It wasn't about resale value, I just wanted them to stay in great condition. Don't stare at the swirly side too much when it's playing as it will give you a headache.   
VINYL CONDITION: Excellent. The surface has been protected by the polythene liner but this has not resulted in any marks to the vinyl, as sometimes happens. The vinyl is bright and shiny. There are no blemishes on this record, not even surface scratches, and I'm sure you will get top quality audio on all tracks.
