The absolute rarity of this album is not to be underestimated. It hardly ever surfaces nowadays. This is an absolutely gorgeous slab of early quality RCA NEON vinyl which is in splendid VG+ to EX condition!! This has a lovely deep glossy sheen!! Hauntingly beautiful songcraft!!! Immense quality prog album that ticks all the right boxes and incredibly hard to find. I have twentyfive years experience in grading. It doesn't get much better than this!!
THE FIRST ALBUM OF THIS SUPERBAND THAT HARDLY SOLD AT ALL BUT IS NOW VERY SOUGHT AFTER BY PROG CONNOISEURS
A CLASSIC PROGRESSIVE LP THAT SHOULD BE IN EVERY QUALITY PROG COLLECTION - if you cannot buy this you should at least try and get a re-issue and enjoy
A well looked after heavy glossy vinyl!
You won't easily find this ultra rare LP in this condition!
Excellent UK 1971
1st press record
the surfaces display blazing factory-fresh gloss with only few wispy hairlines under an intense light.
the audio is supreme, no clicks, no sticks, no jumps!!!
Please, also have a look at my other prog albums on sale this week
ELUSIVE PROGMONSTER!!!! VINYL IN A UNIQUE EX+ CONDITION!!!
!!!!AN IMPOSSIBLE FIND!!!GORGEOUS EX+!!! A few hundred of this first press LP were ever sold!!! This is SOOOOOOOOOOO very rare!!!!!
BACK IN 1969 WHEN THIS LP WAS FIRST RELEASED, IT ONLY EVER SOLD IN ABSOLUTELY TINY AMOUNTS - AND WAS ALMOST IMMEDIATELY DELETED!!!! AS A RESULT IT IS SERIOUSLY RARE AND INCREDIBLY HARD TO LOCATE TODAY!!!!
****ELUSIVE PROGMONSTER!!!****PERPLEXING SONGCRAFT!!!***AN INSPIRATION TO MANY SUBSEQUENT TOPACTS!!!***
!!!!A VERY HARD FIND!!! Most have been bought up by collectors!! This is hardly offered these days!!
In all my years this is only the second time I have come across this PROGMONSTER. Sensational sound quality, I have played this through in its entirety and it was a great joy!!! NO skips or jumps. NO clicks or crackle, this is really a stunning heavy glossy jet black vinyl .The audio is impeccable. Inspected under an intense lightsource and angled.
Vinyl: VG++ to EX . A sensational find!!! I have played this in FULL twice over> The vinyl is far better than the sleeve. The replay is ASTOUNDING!!! I first played for a general listen and a second time for a more detailed observation. Only a few wispy hairlines can be seen under a strong lightsource. Only rarely any light static can be heard, mainly between the tracks on the silent grooves. Fantastic songcraft!! I am very glad to be able to report that this is a fine slab of vinyl without any problems at all and as such worthy of inclusion of any great prog collection. This ia a solid slab of extremely rare vinyl that is hardly offered these days!!! Of course NO jumps/clicks/skips etc.
Gatefold Sleeve: VG. Trifold gatefoldsleeve. An impossible find now in any condition. Only a few hundred were ever sold. Although this had a small paper tear near the opening and some writing near the top (see pics), it is a fine sleeve without any splits. The edges have an amount of wear as does the spine and the paper tear was worked on by a local artist and looks much improved.
Inner: This is the original black inner sleeve with a small tear on the inner diecut. otherwise fine.
Labels: EX+. Lovely labels. The beautiful NEON design is legendary. These labels will be hard to equal!!!
***This is a unique prime investment opportunity!!! Finding this album in any condition at all is nearly impossible!!! This is a great and seriously collectable super album!! You will buy into a piece of prog core history.***
This is a unique investment opportunity!!! The next psych album to go completely through the roof. Finding this album in any condition at all is nearly impossible so late in the day. Get this while you still can. This value of the album is only going to go one way ... up and up ... until it will be totally unavailable at all for a reasonable price.
Important : International postage will be registered and insured if over GBP 41.00. Please wait for my invoice before paying. Postage will be according to Royal Mail rates. Postage is NOT a money spinning exercise for me.
Though there are rarely ever any problems with my items, I always try my very best to describe everything exactly! PLEASE REMEMBER to contact me FIRST, if you have any problems at all, before you leave feedback and star ratings, so I get a chance to turn any negative experience into a positive one! I can always happily sort anything out for you, if you let me know you have a problem! This way no one has to leave Negative/Neutral feedback - and we both walk away happy! Similarly with the amount of stars, anything less than a full 5 * rating is effectively detrimental to a seller's rating as lower ratings will incur higher Final Value Fees and lower priority in the bidlists eventually making it unattractive to list items on Ebay at all. I know of at least one major previous Ebay seller who has decided not to list via Ebay again. Please do NOT bid if you cannot give me at least 1 chance to sort everything out to your FULL satisfaction in the unlikely event of a problem. Thanks again!!
This an excellent investment opportunity!!! Any questions please ask me and I will try to answer soon.
