This is an ORIGINAL 1966 UK “Earliest” MONO 1st pressing on the EARLIEST Reaction labels with TWO Ridges.  THIS LP IS SERIOUSLY RARE AND ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND! 


THIS LP HAS A HUGE AMOUNT OF DIFFERENCES COMPARED TO OTHER PRESSINGS!  PLEASE DON’T UNDERESTIMATE THE RARITY OF THIS LP AND IT IS HIGHLY UNLIKELY TO TURN UP AGAIN FOR SALE FOR A LONG TIME!

 

FIRST - THIS LP HAS RARE Av2 - B//1 MATRIX ENDINGS WITH EARLY STAMPERS IN BOTH SIDES.

 

SECOND - THE CENTRE OF EACH LABEL ON THIS  1ST PRESSING HAS 2 'RIDGES' AROUND THE CENTRE HOLE  WHEREAS ALL LATER PRESSINGS ONLY HAVE ONE!  

It is the genuine article and in MONO! This is how you'd have heard it on pirate radio back in the 60's. Not many people had stereo in those days. It definitely has a different sound...not better, not worse...just different!   Mono was the main format of the day and so those mixes were done at separate sessions for each track. Mono was where all the work and time went and the stereo mix was pretty much cobbled together as an afterthought.

 

ONLY THE 1966 MONO 1ST PRESSINGS OF THIS LP HAVE THESE MATRIX ENDINGS, 1 1 1 STAMPER CODES TO BOTH SIDES AND  2 “RIDGES” AROUND THE CENTRE HOLE. THESE ARE SERIOUSLY RARE AND HARD TO FIND!!!! 

 

THE MAIN VALUE OF THIS LP RESIDES IN ITS RARITY. THE VINYL HAS BEEN VISUALLY GRADED AND IS IN GOOD PLUS CONDITION, HENCE THE LOW STARTING PRICE. PLEASE READ BELOW FOR DESCRIPTION OF GRADES.


THE LABELS ARE IN VERY GOOD CONDITION WITHOUT WRITING.

 

THE 1ST PRESS FRONT LAMINATED “PATENT PENDING” E.J.DAY MONO COVER IS IN VERY GOOD CONDITION WITH CREASES AND  EDGE WEAR. THE BACK OF THE COVER HAS PENCIL TICKS ON THE SONG TITLES. THE SPINE IS WORN OUT BUT COMPLETE.

 

THIS LP IS SERIOUSLY RARE AND HARD TO FIND SO DON’T MISS OUT ON THIS AMAZING OPPORTUNITY TO OWN A PIECE OF ROCK HISTORY.

I will not, therefore, accept responsibility for any loss or damage by the Postal Services. Whilst I am happy to provide help and advice, all such claims remain the responsibility of and must be made by the buyer.
