DAVID BOWIE - 'HUNKY DORY'


This timeless album, regarded as his most critically acclaimed & best loved work, continues to cast its spell over every new generation since its original release in December 1971.

Vinyl weight: 128g


Housed in a front laminated 'Robert Stace' printed cover with the 'Gem' logo but without the 'Mainman' credit on the rear panel.

Complete with its original lyric printed insert & poly-lined inner-sleeve.

Also included is its original 'Boots' record shop retail bag.


CONDITION

Disc

Labels: EXCELLENT +

  Both are clean & glossy with a handful of spindle indentation marks around the side 1 centre hole only. 

Audio/Visual: EXCELLENT +

Immaculately clean playing surfaces which retain all of their deep-gloss shine. Both sides are free from any significant blemishes in strong daylight and bear only some harmless wispy paper type one when viewed directly beneath halogen light. Audibly, the quality of this legendary cutting shines through on every track. As this copy has clearly been little played, the sound is clean & unworn throughout with just the faintest hint of vinyl background between tracks and in a few of the quieter passages. However, there are no clicks, pops, jumps or any other audible distractions to detract from the magnificence of this album.

Cover: EXCELLENT +

A highly respectable example of this early cover of which very few featured a laminated front panel.


The front is clean, glossy & unworn with just four small 'thumbnail' wrinkles & a similar amount to the spine.

All corners are in great shape with no bumps or bruising, just a touch of shelfwear to the lower tips.

Both opening edges are straight and undamaged with no tears or feathering either side.

The exposed rear panel it clean & bright and without any writing or missing paper.


All of the spine wording is readable and covered and both seams are smooth & unstressed.

Insert: EXCELLENT +

Clean & uncreased.

Record shop bag: as seen.
