Description
ATTENTION THE ROLLING STONES AND 1960s BEAT GROUP COLLECTORS! HERE IS AN ORIGINAL 1968 STEREO 1ST ISSUE OF THE ROLLING STONES ALBUM:"BEGGARS BANQUET" ON THE THICK VINYL PRESSED DECCA "WIDEBAND/FFSS" AND UNBOXED LOGO LABELS:SKL 4955 WITH THE EARLIEST POSSIBLE 1K/1K MATRIXES AND THE J/T TAX CODES ON BOTH LABELS. HOUSED IN THE ORIGINAL AND CORRECT "IMPORTANT" POLYLINED INNER SLEEVE WITH THE "FOREIGN PATENTS PENDING" CREDIT DENOTING ONE OF THE EARLIEST EVER PRINTED FOR THIS LP AND THE LAMINATED GATEFOLD COVER HAS THE EARLIEST POSSIBLE "PATENTS PENDING" WORDING PRINTED BY GARROD AND LOFTHOUSE.
LOCATING A REALLY NICE 1968 STEREO COPY IS ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE AS THE MAJORITY OF COPIES SOLD WERE IN MONO AND THE STEREO COPIES THAT DID SELL WERE PLAYED OVER AND OVER AGAIN CAUSING MAJOR DISTORTION AND GENERAL WEAR-SOMETIMES EVEN ON MONO ONLY EQUIPMENT IN ERROR CAUSING MAJOR DAMAGE. THIS COPY HAS NOT HAD MUCH USE WITH GLEAMING SURFACES AND JUST A FEW ULTRA FAINT SURFACE MARKS VISIBLE UNDER VERY STRONG LIGHT! HARDLY ANY SURFACE NOISE! THERE ARE JUST A COUPLE OF VERY SHORT LIVED AND FAINT CLICKS+ A FEW ISOLATED LIGHT "POPS" AND THE STEREO MIXES ARE FAR MORE BRIGHTER WITH A BETTER SPREAD OF THE SOUND IMAGES THAN THE MONO EDITIONS!
THE RECORD ITSELF IS STRICTLY AND SERIOUSLY GRADED AS EXCELLENT CONDITION!.THICK VINYL.THERE IS HARDLY ANY SPINDLE WEAR! NO LABEL WRITING OR STAINING.A SUPERB EXAMPLE!
THE COVER HAS A FEW MINOR CREASES AND A LITTLE MILD STAINING BUT THERE IS NO WRITING,RIPS OR REPAIRS!
PLEASE SEE ALL THE PHOTOS SHOWING THE FRONT AND BACK OF THE COVER AND BOTH LABELS! NOTHING TO HIDE! A LOW,REALISTIC £15 STARTING PRICE WITH MORE ORIGINAL ROLLING STONES LPs FROM ME ENDING AT AUCTION ON EBAY WITHIN MINUTES OF THIS AUCTION ENDING.
Over the years I have helped to add to the collections of many collectors and given my experience, I am aware of the titles that are GENUINE RARE ITEMS.
Now of course for those who are"chained"to the record collector price guide books,for whom I am one of the main consultants, the prices are still a SUGGESTION and as we all know ACTUAL prices SOLD can vary.
The sellers on ebay who continually put"listed"or "list price"on everything should be aware of this!!!!
This is my honest grading!!!
Please see my listening policy below.
I test on a lightweight pickup of approx 2 grammes and listen with the treble full on and no filtering or mono switch used.As both a collector and dealer,I AM VERY STRICT ON GRADING but DO CHECKOUT MY FEEDBACK FOR GRADING PROOF!!!!
