·       ALEXANDER "SKIP" SPENCE - OAR – BRITISH EDSEL LABEL 1980’S PRESSING OF THIS WEST COAST/PSYCH MASTEPIECE – EDSEL RECORDS STEREO LP ED-282

·       NOTE: THIS IS THE ULTRA-RARE ORIGINAL MIX OF THE ALBUM; ALL PRESSINGS AND CD MASTERINGS OF THIS ALBUM WHICH CAN CURRENTLY BE FOUND ON THE MARKET (NOTABLY: THE “SUNDAZED” CD AND VINYL REISSUES) ARE NICE SOUNDING VERSIONS WHICH, UNFORTUNATELY, ARE REMIXES AND DO NOT ACCURATELY REFLECT SKIP SPENCE’S ORIGINAL MIX.

·       BEAUTIFUL, WEAR-FREE LABELS

·       Original mix of this album has been out of print and unavailable on Compact Disc or in any other format for many years, and there are currently no plans to reissue it on CD or DVD that we are aware of. At present, this is the ONLY way you can obtain this great album as it was originally meant to be heard.

(èPLEASE SEE THE IMAGE OF THE COVER, LABEL OR BOTH, SHOWN BELOW; Note: due to size limitations, the entire image of the item may not be visible - please see below for a detailed description)

All I can see is this: Buy this NOW, or weep LATER. Chances are that another copy of this beautiful album, in this condition, will not be up for sale any time soon. Yes, CD reissue was nice, but you have not heard this beautiful Psych classic unless and until you’ve heard it in its original form (mix). This album, which sounds as if the author has no earthly concerns whatsoever and is completely preoccupied with his inner space, originally sold a meager dozen-or-so hundred copies, and was promptly deleted from Columbia catalogue as utterly lacking commercial potential. Needless to say, it has gained a massive cult status since, and is now considered one of the finest works of the psychedelic - or any - era. Words can't quite describe the celestial beauty of this work. If you have never hear this album, drop all your Drakes, Buckleys, Barrets, Fred Neils and Dino Valentes and go for this one.

·       CONDITION:

·       RECORD

(IMPORTANT NOTE: unless otherwise noted below, ALL records are graded visually, NOT play-graded!)

(a)            THE RECORD IS NEAR MINT. Some MICROSCOPIC abrasions are visible, but are for all practical purposes inaudible, and do not affect visual integrity or beauty of the vinyl. The original luster is very much intact, and the vinyl shines and sparkles almost like new.

(b)            PLEASE NOTE: This - of course - is an ANALOG recording, and not an inferior, digital, newly mastered recording!!!

(c)             The record is pressed on a beautiful, virgin-grade vinyl, which is usually used for audiophile, extended-dynamic-range, half-speed mastered and connoisseur pressings. As a result, the sound is gorgeous, sparkling, with phenomenal precision, clarity and ambience. Do not expect to obtain such a glorious (analog) sound from your digital music source (compact disc or DVD)!
