Description
rockin horse - yes it is, philips uk 1st press, laminated sleeve, in stunning gleaming minty condition with a staggeringly perfect cover. this is an absolutely brilliant lp by jimmy campbell in band form creating masterful complex pop ditties informed by aching melancholia and his typically wistful and poetic lyrics,the arch simplicity ofsome of his lyrics passes some listeners by who interpret the occasionally shockingly day-to-day subjects as daft whereas its something very original and witty, combined with killertunes you have a bonafide lost and forgotten genius of rock. THIS IS TOTALLY PERFECT LIKE YOU WENT TO HEAVEN AND BOUGHT IT IN GODS PERFECT RECORD PALACE OF ANGELICALLY MINT LPS. IT GLOWS WITH UNTOUCHED DIVINITY.
grading is - cover / disc
ex/ex top conceivable grade, absolute stunner, the laminated cover glows with shiny black gloss, the disc is virginal. if only more lps in my collection were like this...its become so hard to find lps in such amazing condition, and will become impossible as the years go by.
ive listed around 60 rare progressive, psych, folk and blues lps on ebay in a big clear out, please click other items if interested to see them all. they are all getting harder to find as the years go by, and prices and demand seems to have gone stratospheric.
all are 1st pressings, original uk editions.
all lps are placed in period/vintage plain paper inner sleeves. any generic polylined inner sleeves have been discarded as they are unsafe and damage lps, as per the policy of many serious collectors. old pvc lined inners are ageing, chemically unstable, and sticking to lps, paper inners are the only currently known way to avoid it. vertigo inners are retained and sent outside the covers to avoid damaging contact.
most photos show the fronts, backs, spine and labels so cover condition is fully visible in the photos.
lps listed include sam apple pie, hungry wolf, gerry lockran, mike westbrook love songs, shape of the rain, cressida, idle race, five day week straw people, dransfield, fuschia, rockin horse, gentle giant, and the now very rare aubrey small lp with insert.
grading is mainly visual, all the lps have been fully or partly tested mainly on the run in and first tracks, and any visible defects have been played through to see if theres any audible results.
tested on lenco/cyrus/tannoy 60s/70s equipment.
everything starts at 99p and theres no reserve prices!
POSTAGE - £5 for anywhere in europe and uk. if you bid from usa, japan, australia please wait for an invoice.
postage will be combined and reduced significantly for multiple wins, just wait for an invoice, if ebayers win a few lps postage will be free.
