THE VINYLS - MINT

Never been played totally unmarked virgin vinyl. What are the chances of being able to purchase a copy of the this great album, that has never been played and is nearly 40 years old. These vinyls are completely unmarked, with guaranteed perfect as new Audio. Fantastic!

Thats means TOP audio,  - NO audio blurring, NO distortion, NO background noise or hiss what so ever, and silence between the tracks.

ELECTRIC LADYLAND is a complex and varied collection of music, and is also a relatively sensitive piece of vinyl, and hard to find in clear audio condition. Worn copies can have a lot of surface sound even on musically complex and busy tracks like ' Rainy Day.' Not this One!

ELECTRIC LADYLAND was recorded with a near Live feel, including actual studio sounds and many sparse sections, making it very prone to audio loss. Finding a copy that allows all the audio complexities to sing through is un believably rare. 

A great all round Complete and Unbelievably Rare example of this HENDRIX MASTERPIECE

VINYL TESTED FOR ANY SIGNS OF WARPING: - Yes, NONE visible what so ever, when tested be sight and on a moving turntable.  

Electric Ladyland is the third and final album by The Jimi Hendrix Experience, released in September 1968. Produced and directed by Hendrix, the album has been viewed  as the peak of his guitar and lyrical mastery. Electric Ladyland is the last album released as the Jimi Hendrix Experience as well as the last Hendrix studio album professionally produced under his supervision. After Electric Ladyland, Hendrix spent the remaining two years of his life organising a new band, touring, and recording new songs. 

Hendrix's studio perfectionism was legendary – along with Mitchell he recorded well over 50 takes of "Gypsy Eyes," over three sessions – feeling insecure about his voice and often recording the vocals hidden behind studio screens. Hendrix sings all the backing vocals himself on the title track and on "Long Hot Summer Night," and was said to have been happy with the vocal results on "Have You Ever Been". The controversial original UK album cover photograph showed a group of nude women, and was soon replaced by a more modest fiery portrait of Hendrix singing, making any original UK Nude laminated covers extremely rare and collectable.

With a hectic tour schedule and also trying to record a masterpiece, Hendrix tried to find some normality in his life by inviting friends and acquaintances to the studio during the recordings. Supposedly Chas Chandler hated spending so much time in the studio and partly blamed it on the full studio. Regular producer, manager and mentor Chas Chandler  eventually quit in May 1968, later complaining about Hendrix's insistence on doing multiple takes of every song, along with his alleged drugged incoherence, leading him to sell his share of the management company to his partner Michael Jeffery.  Hendrix went on to produce his most successful LP himself, followed by several very successful tours, which mostly sold out.

THE COVER 

Comes with the 1st Press STEREO Gatefold Laminated Cover, the original Side Loading Sleeve printed in the UK. 

It is made in the heavier thick card only found on the early press albums with full Laminate. Its a stunning (un censored) example and would have to be graded at  least at EXCELLENT PLUS! The spine is near perfect, undented and un split. It comes with the rarer deep High Gloss finish, only found on certain copies and with an obvious heavy lustre that can easily be noticed next to a normal laminated copy. Its a really stunning example in top condition, with only very minor handling wear.

THE LABELS -  MINT CONDITION

Superb labels. NO spindle traces. Absolutely no marks or writing what so ever, and NO brush marks that these labels seem prone to. PERFECT all round examples!

THE INNERS

NEAR MINT condition Original inner sleeves. NO tears around the openings, No wear at the tops. NO creasing and NO seam splits down any of the edges. 

The vinyls themselves will of course come in two plain white inner sleeves.

RARITY

ELECTRIC LADYLAND was not produced in massive quantities, but the polydor copies exceeded the Track label version. On saying that, finding any copy of ELECTRIC LADYLAND, with a pristine original Laminated Nude cover, and NEW UNPLAYED vinyls that sound astonishing, make this an unbelievably rare example of the hugely collectable Hendrix masterpiece.

FINDING A COMPLETE SET IS VERY RARE. ONE IN THIS GREAT ALL ROUND 'VAULT' CONDITION, with VINYLS THAT ARE UN PLAYED IS UNBELIEVABLY RARE INDEED!!! 

A FANTASTIC OPPORTUNITY TO OWN AN EXTREMELY RARE AND VALUABLE PIECE OF MUSICAL HISTORY.

GREAT COVERS WITH NO SEAM SPLITS, NO TEARS, NO WRITING, NO STICKERS.

GREAT VINYLS WITH NO LOUD CLICKS OR POPS, NO JUMPS OR REPEATS - GUARANTEED!

SCRUPULOUS EXAMINATION and TESTING; PLEASE NOTE:

This record has been play tested to ensure the sound quality and accuracy of description. I aim to give a precise and concise description of the sound quality, pointing out any defects so that you know what you are bidding on. I will not go into screeds of information about nature of the songs, as I imagine that you already know them well. I aim to describe all items as accurately as possible, and offer a full refund on return if for any reason you are not completely happy with the item description.

VINYL

Large format art work covers with the original sound and mix unique to vinyl and of the highest quality audio. Vinyl record have always been loved and have become a great investment opportunity, with prices soaring over the last ten years, making classic pieces a great financial as well as a cultural investment.

ABOUT ME 

I am a visual artist, working internationally, a collector of art and rare objects including rare vinyl, which I have been collecting for over 25 years, and an art and music enthusiast. I specialise in the  highest quality rarest items, selling to collectors the world over. I want you to know what a great item you are bidding on. If there is anything that is unclear in the listing, or you have any questions about this or any other item, please feel free to get in touch. All the best to you.  

IMAGES and INFORMATION

I only use my photographs taken with a high quality digital camera of the item for sale. The images are designed to be as clear as possible, giving an exact image of the item. I aim to give sufficient and accurate detail as possible, so that you know exactly what you are bidding on. Please let me know if you need any further information and I will be only to happy to oblige.

VINYL SOUND - PLEASE NOTE

Top quality vinyl with clear sound is rare, and is what I always aim for. Even with the cleanest copies you will find occasional static sound during playback, caused by a build of dust in the grooves. This is clearly different from the distortion, loud pops or clicks that are found on heavily played and worn pieces of vinyl. Any static build up will reduce when played, and I advise a light clean should be given between plays for optimal performance. 

SERVICE YOU CAN TRUST, QUALITY ASSURED. I HAVE A 100% POSITIVE FEEDBACK RATING.
