HERE IS FRANK ZAPPA:"LUMPY GRAVY" THIS IS A 1968 STEREO 1ST GERMAN ISSUE OF THIS LP WHICH HAD VERY LITTLE ATTENTION OF SALES INITIALLY FAILING TO CHART IN THE UK AND THE USA, LATER REISSUES BEING MORE EASIER TO FIND AND NATURALLY 1ST UK STEREO EDITIONS ARE ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND IN ANYTHING APPROACHING NEAR MINT CONDITION MAKING THIS FANTASTIC GERMAN ORIGINAL EDITION WITH THICK VINYL A FANTASTIC ALTERNATIVE WHICH HAS BARELY BEEN PLAYED! MUCH THICKER THAN LATER REISSUES. VERVE V6-8741 WITH 1968 DATE CODE IN THE DEAD WAX. VERY CLEAN LABELS WITH NO SPINDLE WEAR,STAINING OR WRITING! THE RECORD IS STRICTLY GRADED AS NEAR MINT CONDITION WITH GLEAMING SURFACES AND NO SURFACE MARKS WHATSOEVER! HARDLY ANY SURFACE NOISE,EVEN AT HIGH VOLUME!-NO CLICKS,STICKS OR JUMPS.HOUSED IN THE ORIGINAL POLYLINED PLAIN WHITE INNER SLEEVE IS VERY CLEAN. THE LAMINATED GATEFOLD COVER HAS SOME EDGE CREASES AND A COUPLE OF LARGER ONES AT THE BACK BUT THERE IS NO WRITING,RIPS OR REPAIRS.
THE SPINE DETAILS CAN BE EASILY READ.
FAR BETTER THAN THE MAJORITY OF COPIES THAT SURVIVE OF THIS SERIOUSLY RARE LP
MOST COPIES SOLD WERE PLAYED ON OLD AND HEAVY EQUIPMENT OR TAKEN TO PARTIES! HARDLY ANY COPIES WERE KEPT AND CHERISHED LIKE THIS ONE!
PLEASE SEE ALL OF THE PHOTOS!
A LOW REALISTIC £20 STARTING PRICE BUT EXPECT KEEN BIDDING ON THIS RARE LP. A HIGH WINNING BID WILL REQUIRE EITHER SPECIAL DELIVERY OR INTERNATIONAL SIGNED FOR POSTAGE-QUOTES ON REQUEST.
Over the years I have helped to add to the collections of many ollectors and given my experience, I am aware of the titles that are GENUINE RARE ITEMS.
Now of course for those who are"chained"to the record collector price guide books,for whom I am one of the main consultants, the prices are still a SUGGESTION and as we all know ACTUAL prices SOLD can vary.
The sellers on ebay who continually put"listed"or "list price"on everything should be aware of this!!!!
This is my honest grading!!!
Please see my listening policy below.
I test on a lightweight pickup of approx 2 grammes and listen with the treble full on and no filtering or mono switch used.As both a collector and dealer,I AM VERY STRICT ON GRADING but DO CHECKOUT MY FEEDBACK FOR GRADING PROOF!!!!
