Description

THIS IS A MINT COPY OF THE FIRST UK VERTIGO PRESSING OF A PROGRESSIVE ROCK CLASSIC FROM 1970, THE DEBUT ALBUM BY GRACIOUS WHO TOURED WITH THE WHO. A LIGHTLY PLAYED CHERISHED ARCHIVE COPY. EVEN IN THE VERY BRIGHTEST LIGHT THERE ARE NO SURFACE MARKS, HAIRLINES OR EVEN THE FEINTEST WITHDRAWAL TRACES. PERHAPS A FULL MINT GRADE IF THAT IS POSSIBLE AFTER 40 YEARS? SAY NEAR MINT TO BE SAFE. I FEEL CERTAIN THAT YOU WILL NOT FIND A BETTER COPY IN MANY YEARS. RECORD 6360 002 with matrices 1Y//1 420 with stamper codes 1 1 3 and 2Y//1 420 with stamper codes 1 2 4. PLAYS LIKE A NEW RECORD WITH CRYSTAL CLEAR DYNAMIC SOUND. ONE OF THE BEST PROGRESSIVE ROCK ALBUMS OF THIS MAGICAL ERA. THE TEXTURED 'BUBBLED' GATEFOLD COVER IS IN EX++ CONDITION WITH NO FAULTS OTHER THAN LIGHT NATURAL AGEING OF TH WHITE INK (WHICH AFTER 40 YEARS YOU ARE UNLIKELY TO FIND IN PERFECT WHITENESS). COMES OF COURSE COMPLETE WITH THE ORIGINAL ANTI STATIC SWIRL INNER BAG WITH CODE 1/04 70 (APRIL 1970, the original date of release). ONE OF THE VERY RAREST VERTIGO SWIRL RECORDS & ONE OF THE BEST. RECOMMENDED FOR THE PROGRESSIVE ROCK CONNOISEUR. I WILL POST WORLDWIDE WITH HEAVY DUTY CARDBOARD MAILERS & STIFFENERS - £3.49 to UK RECORDED FIRST CLASS DELIVERY, £7.99 SIGNED & TRACKED AIR MAIL TO EUROPE & £8.99 SIGNED & TRACKED AIR MAIL TO THE REST OF THE WORLD.
