Description
"The Dark Side Of The Moon" is the eighth studio LP to be released by Pink Floyd. It was recorded at Abbey Road Studios in London, England and released in 1973. It stands as one of the most successful commercial recordings of all time, and has been released in many countries. In the U.S., the album has spent more time on the Billboard 200 album chart than any other release in modern history.
Early releases included two posters and two color stickers inside the gatefold sleeve, all designed by the U.K. graphics and design company Hipgnosis.
The most sought-after and valuable version of DSOTM is the original U.K. Harvest issue, identifiable with a solid blue triangle on the labels instead of the shaded triangle used on most other versions.
This Copy fulfills the early original version of Dark Side Of the Moon (DSOTM)
SHLV 804 A-2 1 LA B-2 5 GDT Looks almost New.
The vinyl has a beautiful sheen with full lustre looks un-played. Under strong lighting and magnifier I can see no marks what so ever.
The labels (Gramophone Co)are unmarked no Biro, pencil or sticker residue, there are no manufacturing misshapes or dings scratches or discoloration, the only issue is a couple of spindle lines on both sides, difficult to see unless the record is angled.
The gate-fold cover(blueish in colour) has very few issues although ring wear to the back side of the cover is present, but does not detracted from the full lustre of the cover. There are no marks including Biro,pencil or sticker residue, also no tears, rips, dings, there is evidence of two very small rub marks, but I am being over fussy.
Both posters are in immaculate condition and un-hung. There is a small pin hole on the second fold of the pyramid poster. The post cards are un-used or peeled, NM one has a fold crease to it
The original black inner sleeve is intact with no real issues there are some light creases.
I have tried to be as honest in my observation to the condition of the album as I can be
A lovely copy for anyone's collection
The vinyl was cleaned using the Audio Desk Systeme Ultrasonic vinyl cleaner
