HP Love craft
HP Lovecraft II


THIS IS A VERY RARE 1968 UK 1ST PRESS ON THE BLACK AND SILVER PHILIPS LABEL !!!!
HERE IS A VERY RARE CHANCE TO GET ONE OF THE BEST 1960's PSYCHEDELIC ALBUMS EVER PRODUCED. SO IF YOU LIKE YOUR PSYCH ROCK, THEN THIS CERTAINLY IS A MUST HAVE. HP LOVECRAFT, WERE A VERY SHORT LIVED PSYCH ROCK BAND FORMED IN CHICAGO IN 1967, BUT AFTER THEIR FIRST ALBUM IN 1967, THEY MOVED TO SAN FRACISCO, AND BECAME PART OF THE AMAZING SAN FRANCISCO PSYCHEDELIC SCENE, AND THERE PRODUCED THEIR 2nd ALBUM, WHICH IS THE ONE LISTED BELOW, AND WAS RELEASED IN 1968, AND WHAT AN ALBUM IT IS !!!! THIS REALLY WILL BE A VERY SAD LOSS FROM MY PERSONAL TREASURED VINYL COLLECTION !!!!
DISCLAIMER :: ALL MY LP'S LISTED ON THIS SITE ARE ORIGINAL AND NOT FAKE OR COUNTERFEIT, AND ARE SOLD IN GOOD FAITH. THEY WERE BOUGHT ON THE DATE OF ISSUE. THANK YOU !!

THIS IS AN ORIGINAL RARE 1968 UK 1ST PRESS  :: 852126  1Y//1  V  420  ::  852126  2Y//1  V  420 .
ON THE FIRST PRESS PHILIPS LABEL :: SBL 7872 .
COVER  ::  ORIGINAL FIRST PRESS FRONT AND BACK LAMINATED GATEFOLD, WITH LOVELY SOLID SPINE AND EDGES, WITH A RUB ON THE CORNERS, AND THE OPENING EDGE IS STILL SHARP. THERE ARE SOME SMALL LAMINATE CREASE LINES AROUND THE EDGES, AND A BIT OF VERY FAINT RING WEAR ON THE BACK. NOW THERE LOOKS LIKE THERE IS SOME CLEAR CELLO TAPE ON THE EDGES, OR IT COULD BE THE LAMINATE EDGES, BUT TO BE ON THE SAFE SIDE, I WILL SAY IT IS CLEAR CELLO TAPE, BUT AS YOU CAN SEE IN THE PHOTOS IT IS HARD TO TELL. INSIDE THE GATEFOLD THERE IS SOME LIGHT AGE RELATED MARKS AROUND THE EDGES, ON THE LEFT SIDE, AND WITH NOTHING ELSE, I WOULD GRADE THIS ORIGINAL  :: VG+ .   VINYL ::  THE VINYL PLAYS WITH AMAZING AUDIO, WITH NO STATIC, CRACKLE, POPS, CLICKS, JUMPS, OR STICKS, AND ALL I HEARD WAS ....
ON SIDE 1 :: JUST SUPERB AUDIO, JUST TWO FAINT TICKS IN THE MIDDLE OF TRACK 2 !!!!
ON SIDE 1 :: AGAIN SUPERB AUDIO, WITH NOTHING TO REPORT !!!! VISUALLY, AWAY FROM BRIGHT LIGHT THE VINYL LOOKS FINE, ONLY UNDER BRIGHT LIGHT ARE THERE SOME HARMLESS COSMETIC SLEEVE REMOVAL SPIDER WEB THREAD ULTRA FINE LINES, AND SOME HARMLESS MEDIUM SIZED COSMETIC HAIRLINES, AND A SHADOW LOOKING COSMETIC MARK, ON THE RUN IN TO TRACK 1 ON SIDE 1, AND NOTHING TO WORRY ABOUT, AS SHOWN IN THE PHOTO, THANK YOU, SO JUST A VISUAL EFFECT UNDER BRIGHT LIGHT AND NO WAY AN AUDIO EFFECT. NOW I COULD HAVE GONE EX+/NEAR MINT ON THE AUDIO, BUT I WILL GRADE ON THE SAFE SIDE, AND SO GRADE THE AUDIO  :: EX+ . 

LABELS :: JUST SOME FAINT SPINDLE LINES AT THE CENTRE, AND A SMALL STICKER OUTLINE ON ONE LABEL, AS SEEN IN THE PHOTOS, SO :: EX/EX- .


INNER ::  NOW ALTHOUGH THE INNER IS THE CORRECT ONE, IT IS NOT THE 1968 ORIGINAL, BUT A 1970. NOT SURE HOW THIS HAS HAPPENED, SO I PROBABLY HAVE THE 1968 INNER WITH A 1970 VINYL SOMEWHERE !!!! LOVELY CONDITION WITH NO SPLITS OR WRITING, AND OF COURSE THE VINYL WILL COME IN A NEW POLYLINED INNER ALONG WITH THE ORIGINAL DESCRIBED ABOVE  :: EX/EX- .

WHAT A BRILLIANT PSYCH ALBUM THIS IS, JUST TAKES YOU BACK TO SAN FRANCISCO IN THE 1960's, AND YOU WILL LOVE IT !!!! THANK YOU AS ALWAYS FOR YOUR TIME !!!! ROSE . 

TAKE CARE AND BE SAFE !!!!

IMPORTANT   I ALWAYS POST THE NEXT DAY, APART IF IT FALLS ON A SUNDAY. PLEASE READ THE POSTAGE LABEL FOR THE DATE OF POSTING, AND YOU WILL SEE IT WAS POSTED ON TIME. IT IS THE POSTAL SERVICES AT FAULT, AND NOT MINE, AND DUE TO THIS I HAVE LOST MY 5 STAR POSTAGE RATING. THANK YOU !!!
