Description
Original UK Virgin stereo press LP.Faust were an experimental prog rock band from Germany, who signed to Virgin records in 1973 and issued the Faust Tapes as a cut-and-paste album, which spliced together a large number of bits and pieces from their extensive collection of private recordings, not originally intended for release. Virgin issued it at the then price of a single, 48 pence. The Faust Tapes reportedly sold over 100,000 copies. This has the early A-1U B-1U hand etched matrices & 2- 1- stampers of the very first presses! The matt sleeve is intact & in EX+ condition, with some very light corner/edge wear & some very light rubbing on the front cover. The spine is intact and fully readable, the company inner is intact & in EX+ condition. The record is in visually EX+ condition, with only one or two faint sleeve removal hairlines visible on each side. The labels are in EX+ condition, clean & bright with no evidence of spindle markings on either side. The sound reproduction is EX+, still clear & precise throughout with no loud pops or crackle & definately no skips, sticks or jumps, but there is some brief, light background noise during the run in grooves, overall a really great, clear & lively listen! The matrix nos. are; VC-501, A-1U stamper 2-MR, B-1U stamper 1-PD. This is one of the early copies of the 1st pressing of the original 1973 UK stereo issue of this album!
