~ COUNTRY HOME ~

(1970 ISLAND RECORDS LP – UK FIRST PRESSING)

ON OFFER HERE IS A GENUINE, ORIGINAL UK FIRST PRESSING OF THE STUNNING DEBUT ALBUM “COUNTRY HOME” BY BRONCO ON THE PINK ISLAND LABEL.

THIS FANTASTIC RECORD IS HOUSED IN IT’S SUPERB ORIGINAL, HEAVY GATEFOLD SLEEVE.

THE CATALOGUE NUMBER IS ISLAND ILPS 9124

THE MATRIX NUMBERS ARE: ILPS 9124 A-2U / ILPS 9124 B-2U

THE SLEEVE

THE SUPERB, E. J. DAY GATEFOLD SLEEVE IS IN EXCELLENT+ CONDITION. THERE ARE JUST A FEW WRINKLES INSIDE THE GATEFOLD.  ALL OF THE EDGES AND CORNERS ARE PRISTINE. THE WIDE SPINE IS COMPLETELY STRAIGHT AND ALL TEXT IS 100% VISIBLE. THIS SLEEVE WILL LOOK INCREDIBLE ON YOUR SHELVES OR RACKS. 

THE VINYL

VISUALLY THE GLOSSY, BLACK VINYL APPEARS TO BE IN EXCELLENT CONDITION AND UNDER BRIGHT LIGHT I CAN ONLY SEE A FEW SLIGHT MARKS. I HAVE JUST FINISHED LISTENING TO BOTH SIDES AND CAN CONFIRM THAT THE SOUND QUALITY IS GENERALLY EXCELLENT THROUGHOUT. HOWEVER IT TRANSPIRES THERE IS A SMALL SCRATCH MIDWAY THROUGH TRACK 2 ON SIDE  ONE WHICH CAUSES A NUMBER OF LIGHT REPEATING CLICKS. OTHERWISE THE SOUND QUALITY IS FANTASTIC.

THE LABELS

THE ICONIC PINK ISLAND LABELS, WITH LARGE WHITE “i” LOGOS ARE IN VERY GOOD/EXCELLENT CONDITION WITH A FEW LIGHT SPINDLE MARKS PER LABEL. THERE IS ALSO SOME FOXING (STAINING) NOTABLY TO THE SIDE ONE LABEL.

2. LOVE
3. MISFIT ON YOUR STAIR
4. BUMPERS WEST

SIDE TWO

RECORD COLLECTOR GRADING SYSTEM

MINT (M) THE RECORD ITSELF IS IN BRAND NEW CONDITION WITH NO SURFACE MARKS OR DETERIORATION IN SOUND QUALITY. THE COVER AND ANY EXTRA ITEMS SUCH AS THE LYRIC SHEET, BOOKLET OR POSTER ARE IN PERFECT CONDITION. RECORDS ADVERTISED AS SEALED OR UNPLAYED SHOULD BE MINT.

EXCELLENT (EX) THE RECORD SHOWS SOME SIGNS OF HAVING BEEN PLAYED, BUT THERE IS VERY LITTLE LESSENING IN SOUND QUALITY. THE COVER AND PACKAGING MIGHT HAVE SLIGHT WEAR AND/OR CREASING.

VERY GOOD (VG) THE RECORD HAS OBVIOUSLY BEEN PLAYED MANY TIMES, BUT DISPLAYS NO MAJOR DETERIORATION IN SOUND QUALITY, DESPITE NOTICEABLE SURFACE MARKS AND THE OCCASIONAL LIGHT SCRATCH. NORMAL WEAR AND TEAR ON THE COVER OR EXTRA ITEMS, WITHOUT ANY MAJOR DEFECTS, IS ACCEPTABLE.

GOOD (G) THE RECORD HAS BEEN PLAYED SO MUCH THAT THE SOUND QUALITY HAS NOTICEABLY DETERIORATED, PERHAPS WITH SOME DISTORTION AND MILD SCRATCHES. THE COVER AND CONTENTS SUFFER FROM FOLDING, SCUFFING OF EDGES, SPINE SPLITS, DISCOLOURATION, ETC.
