Description
Available here is a 12" vinyl LP by Howard Riley - Flight. A UK 1st (and only) pressing, it was issued by Turtle Records in 1971 and has the catalogue number TUR 301.
Identifiers - The record bears the correct 1st pressing marks, as per the Discogs website -
Matrix / Runout - Stamped - Side A - TUR+301+A
Matrix / Runout - Stamped - Side B - TUR+301+B
Vinyl Condition - Very Good - The record is bright and clean and while a few light surface marks are present, there are no worrying scratches. Having listened to both sides, I can confirm that there is no jumping or sticking although a few clicks will be heard. A degree of background crackle is present at times, although it’s not excessive and generally lost behind the man’s often unrestrained approach to his art. I’ve given the record a cursory clean but I suspect that given its age, the grooves would benefit from sustained attention.
Cover/Sleeve Condition - Very Good - Original gatefold outer cover, which has signs of light wear. Expect rubbing to the edge and corners and particularly along the spine strip. Other minor marks will be found but there are no splits or creasing. Inner sleeve is plain white with small side splits and probably as issued.
A very rare and collectible recording, the track listing is as follows …
A - Motion
B1 - Cirrus
B2 - Forgotten Game
B3 - Two Ballads: For Lesley / For Sue
B4 - Flight

It is not my intention to profit from postage. If possible I use good clean recyclable material but I also buy bubble wrap, brown paper, packing tape and glue and all items are well wrapped and protected before posting. Items are also weighed and postage calculated before I list at auction and a small percentage of the charge does go towards packing costs.
I will accept returns on any item which is not as described and refund all costs upon safe receipt.
See "Me" for further general despatch information.
