The Wailers- Catch A Fire- 1st UK Press, ILPS 9241, released April 13th 1973.
ALL RECORDS ARE SENT OUT OF THE SLEEVE- this is to prevent any damage to the record and sleeve through transit. All records are sent in pro mailers, with extra packing to prevent damage and with a plastic wallet.
Insurance recommended.
Postage £2.99 Plus insurance.
Non UK on request - this is a major hassle as Post in UK is hard to guess. I have put £20, with insurance, for this as it might reach a high sale price, but non-UK will be at cost (will sort that put before sending). This might be MORE than £20 if cost is more, so please accept these conditions before purchase. It will be at cost, whatever that is. If you read my feedback, someone objected to this!!
“Record Collector's” grading system:
- Mint: 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.
-
Excellent: The record shows some signs of having been played, but there is very little lessening of sound quality. The cover and packaging might have slight wear and / or creasing.
-
Very Good: 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: 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...
-
Fair: The record is still just playable but has not been cared for properly and displays considerable surface noise: it may even jump. The cover and contents will be badly damaged or partly missing.
-
Poor: The record will not play properly due to scratches, bad surface noise etc.. The cover and contents will be badly damaged or partly missing.
-
Bad: The record is unplayable or might even be broken, and is only of use as a collection filler.

Hi all, just played side 1 & 2 on headphones loud, on a Garrard Zero 100 with a new Shure M75ED -2 (that's a 70s deck), side 2 has a few minor clicks (this is on phones), nothing serious and not on all tracks. Couple of marks on surface of side 1, slight mark side 2. Sounds great, this is the first press so the quality is very impressive, like a fresh live sound. This is not a mint record, is excellent, but vinyl shines well and the vinyl looks great. It has not been cleaned as seems fine as it is. EXCELLENT COPY with ZIPPO COVER FIRST PRESS!
