ATTENTION JIMI HENDRIX,1960s ALBUM AND CLASSIC ROCK COLLECTORS!
HERE IS AN ORIGINAL 1ST STEREO 1968 EDITION OF THE JIMI HENDRIX EXPERIENCE DOUBLE ALBUM MASTERPIECE:"ELECTRIC LADYLAND".
RARELY SEEN IN THIS CONDITION.
IT'S THE EARLIEST POSSIBLE UK STEREO 1968 EDITION ON THE POLYDOR THICK PRESSED TRACK LABELS IN FANTASTIC CONDITION+A SUPER CLEAN LAMINATED GATEFOLD COVER!
613 008/613009+THE EARLIEST POSSIBLE A//1 B//1 A//1 B//1 MATRIXES.
HARDLY ANY COPIES HAVE SURVIVED LIKE THIS FANTASTIC EXAMPLE!
STRICTLY GRADED AS EXCELLENT CONDITION WITH GLEAMING SURFACES,JUST A FEW FAINT HAIRLINE SURFACE MARKS,THE COVER REMOVAL TYPE IN VERY STRONG LIGHT BUT IT IS CLEAR TO ME THAT THIS SET HAS BEEN WELL CARED FOR WITH HARDLY ANY SURFACE NOISE!
THERE WERE NO OFFICIAL MONO PRESSINGS.
MOST STEREO LPs THAT WERE SOLD 44 YEARS AGO IN 1968 WERE OFTEN PLAYED A LOT USUALLY USING ANCIENT,HEAVY AND AWFUL EQUIPMENT,SOMETIMES EVEN PLAYED ON MONO ONLY EQUIPMENT IN ERROR AND SO OFTEN TAKEN TO PARTIES RESULTING IN ALL KINDS OF DAMAGE!-THIS SET HAS HARDLY BEEN PLAYED AT ALL WITH THAT "JUST PRESSED"LOOK! NO NASTY DISTORTION AS PRESENT ON THE MAJORITY OF COPIES THAT SURVIVE! NO CLICKS,NO JUMPS,NO STICKS! CLEAN LABELS-ONLY VERY SLIGHT SPINDLE WEAR!
A PAIR THAT HAS HARDLY BEEN USED, OBVIOUSLY CHERISHED AND WELL CARED FOR BY ONE OWNER SINCE 1968! PLEASE SEE THE PHOTOS OF THE FRONT AND BACK OF THE COVER+BOTH LABELS!
NOTHING TO HIDE!
ONE OF THE BEST 1ST EDITION STEREO SETS I HAVE FOUND IN 25 YEARS AS A DEALER SPECIALISING IN 1960s RECORDS!
THE FULLY LAMINATED GATEFOLD COVER HAS A FINE TINY EDGE CREASES BUT NO WRITING,RIPS,STAINING OR REPAIRS!
IT HAS THE BLUE PRINTED TEXT INSIDE AND IS PRINTED BY ERNEST J.DAY.
NO HORRIBLE SMOKE OR DAMP SMELL AS SO OFTEN THE CASE WITH SUCH OLD LPs!
THIS LPs ARE STRICTLY GRADED IN EXCELLENT CONDITION AND COULD BE YOUR LAST OPPORTUNITY TO OWN ONE OF THE BEST JIMI HENDRIX STEREO LPs!
MOST WILL REMAIN ON COLLECTORS SHELVES!
THIS IS A LOVELY PAIR OF RECORDS ONLY MATCHED BY THE VARIOUS LOVELY PAIRS ON THE COVER-DIFFERENT OF COURSE TO THE AMERICAN VERSIONS THAT WERE NOT AS SUGGESTIVE!
THIS 1ST ISSUE FROM 1968 HAS FAR MORE BASS AND MUCH THICKER VINYL AS WELL AS A MUCH THICKER COVER THAN LATER 1970s and 1980s REISSUES WHICH HAD WAFER THIN VINYL!
GREAT VOCALS AND GUITARWORK WITH WARM SOUNDING VINYL + AMAZING BASS!
