ARGENT Argent 1970 UK CBC 1st PRESS - CENTRE LOADING GATEFOLD - EXCELLENT+
ARGENTArgent
UK CBS (S 63781) FIRST PRESSING OF ARGENT’S DEBUT LP (January 1970)
In 1969 the Zombies didn't so much come to a halt as split in two.
Colin Blunstone would take the band's poppiest, sweetest elements and Rod Argent would take the gutsier ones.
Which is what you get on Argent's self-titled debut - late-period Zombies with a heavier keyboard-led rock sound
SUPERB ORIGINAL COPY - SEEN LITTLE USE AND PLAYS BEAUTIFULLY THROUGHOUT
Rod Argent organ, electric piano, vocals
Russ Ballard guitar, vocals
Jim Rodford bass guitar, guitar, vocals
Robert Henrit drums, percussion
PRESSED ON HEAVYWEIGHT VINYL (159g) WITH THE FIRST SOLID ORANGE CBS LABELS
MATRIX: S 63781 - A1 / S 63781 - B1
THE RECORD IS HOUSED IN THE ORIGINAL MATT CENTRE-LOADING GATEFOLD SLEEVE ”Printed and made by the E. J. Day Group, London and Bedford”
COMPLETE WITH THE ORIGINAL CBS ADVERTISING INNER SLEEVE

LABELS: EXCELLENT+
Clean, unmarked labels - light spindle traces
VINYL Visual: EXCELLENT+
Both surfaces shine like-new with barely a mark to be seen
VINYL Audio: EXCELLENT+
Plays beautifully throughout with little to fault - a strong EX+ with great sound - strong, rich and warm - basically The Zombies next LP minus Blundstone’s etherial vocals
SLEEVE: EXCELLENT
Apart from some light rub to the spine and creasing to the extremities the cover is in fine shape
