Description
JOHN MARTYN - " LIVE AT LEEDS ", Island Records (ILPS 9343) Stereo, 1975.
Very rare Limted Edition LP of Martyn's gig in Leeds in '75. The earliest copies of this record (including this one) were hand numbered and signed.
This particular copy is numbered "344" and signed "Sorry to be so long, John & Beverly Martyn" - see photo.
English issue and pressing.
Professionally cleaned on my Moth record cleaning machine and then put in a fresh new poly-lined inner sleeve (the original inner sleeve has also been retained and included in the auction - see photo)
CONDITION:
VINYL = V.G.+ (No deep scratches, no groove damage, no distortion, light spindle trails, etc. Under a bright grading lamp I can make out a few very slight surface marks and a few other faint scuffs just visible on the vinyl's surface - although none of these correspond directly to any audible defects. Generally it plays pretty well, but there is some very faint occasional surface noise audible during the silent run-in and silneces between tracks. As the record played, I did hear the odd faint click or crackle in the background from time to time, but generally once the music kicks in that's all you can hear.
Overall, although it is not quite perfect and I realise this will affect the value, it is by no means ruined by these minor imperfections and would still make a good honest copy for someone to play and enjoy - perfect copies of this LP exchange hands for a lot of money these days and although this is not quite one of those museum pieces, it is still a very serviceable copy that would be great for somebody out there to play and enjoy as it was originally intented.
Note: for the purposes of this listing I have tested this LP on my Linn LP12 Sondek turntable - generally this is quite a critical test, but I must point out that I cannot guarantee exactly how this LP will sound on your turntable - common sense for most... but then this is ebay!!!)
SLEEVE = V.G.++ (Generally pretty good. NO rips, tears, big creases or defacing. But did have to mark it down a bit for general wear and being a bit grubby or discoloured in places - see photos for further clarification)
NOTE: I must point out that we are actually a long standing physical record shop, with many decades worth of selling, trading and grading records under our collective belts. Unlike so many of the jokers now selling records on ebay, we know how to grade records. Before bidding, please read my description carefully, decide how much this record is worth to you and place you max bid accordingly. Please also feel free to check out my feedback from the many other successful transactions I have made in the past.
