Description
JOHN MARTYN ISLAND RECORDS - PINK LABEL - IST PRESSING - THE TUMBLER - 1968. THE SLEEVE IS IN GOOD CONDITION WITH JUST SOME SCUFFING AROUND THE EDGES AND A FEW CREASES & RING MARK. THE LP HAS SOME SCRATCHES & A COUPLE OF MARKS - I HAVEN'T PLAYED IT, BUT WILL DO SO IN THE NEXT COUPLE OF DAYS - BEFORE BIDDING PLEASE WAIT FOR ME TO UPDATE THE LISTING WITH DETAILS OF HOW MUCH THE SOUND IS EFFECTED.
THANKS FOR LOOKING
OK - I'VE LISTENED TO IT ALL - QUITE AMAZING THAT THE MARKS THAT I THOUGHT WERE THE WORST DON'T SEEM TO HAVE ANY EFFECT - (I HAD FORGOTTEN HOW DEEP THE GROOVES IN THE OLD VINYL WERE)
A SIDE
TRACK 1 IS BRIEFLY 'CRACKLY' AT THE START, TRACK 2 HAS THE ODD LIGHT SOUND - TRACK 3 HAS A BIT OF LIGHT SOUND AND COUPLE OF 'CLICKS' AT THE VERY END - TRACK 4 HAS A CLICK AT THE VERY START - TRACK 5 HAS A COUPLE OF LIGHT SOUNDS - TRACK 6 IS FINE.
B SIDE
TRACK 1 HAS 'CRACKLES' RIGHT AT THE START - TRACK 2 HAS 3 OR 4 CLICKS RIGHT AT THE END - TRACKS 3 & 4 ARE FINE - TRACK 5 HAS 4 CLICKS AT THE END - TRACK 6 (SEVEN BLACK ROSES) IS FINE (AND GENIUS!).
OVERALL THIS IS IN BRILLIANT CONDITION AND APART FROM THE BRIEF 'CLICKS' THE OTHER SOUNDS ARE BARELY NOTICEABLE, THERE IS NOTHING THAT REALLY STANDS OUT OR SPOILS THE LISTENING.
I HAVE ASKED A FRIEND WHO IS ULTRA, ULTRA FUSSY ABOUT HIS VINYL (ANAL EVEN!) TO RATE THE LP CONDITION ON A SCALE OF 1 TO 10 - HE SAYS 8!
