ATTENTION 1960s PROGRESSIVE  AND BLUES/ROCK ALBUM  COLLECTORS!     

HERE IS AN ORIGINAL 1969 1ST ISSUE OF THE RARELY SEEN(ESPECIALLY IN THIS CONDITION)DOUBLE ALBUM BY JOHNNY WINTER:"SECOND WINTER".WHAT IS UNUSUAL IS THAT THERE ARE THREE SIDES WITH A BLANK FOURTH SIDE AS THERE WAS NOT ENOUGH MUSIC TO FILL FOUR SIDES! THIS DOUBLE ALBUM FAILED TO CHART IN THE UK AND AS SUCH WAS PROBABLY DELETED WITHIN A FEW MONTHS OF ISSUE. IT VERY RARELY TURNS UP IN AS OUTSTANDING EXCELLENT CONDITION AS THIS UPGRADER STANDARD EXAMPLE!.IT'S ONE OF THE BEST SETS I HAVE FOUND AND HEARD IN YEARS AS A DEALER. CBS S 63913/4 WITH THE EARLIEST POSSIBLE A1/B1/C1 MATRIXES AND THE CBS BOXED LOGO LABELS WITH THICK VINYL. STEREO MIXES(THERE WERE NO MONOS!) HOUSED IN TWO CBS LPs ADVERT INNER SLEEVE AS WELL AS THE GATEFOLD COVER.  NOT TO BE CONFUSED WITH LATER REISSUES THAT EXIST-THIS IS THE ORIGINAL UK ISSUE!  MOST BUYING LPs IN 1969 WERE USING OLD,HEAVY EQUIPMENT THAT WOULD WEAR OUT ANY RECORD VERY QUICKLY INDEED NOT FORGETTING MANY DEALERS WOULD ONLY OBTAIN THIS LP TO SPECIAL ORDER! DIRECT FROM THE COLLECTION OF A MAJOR COLLECTOR WHO HAS FINALLY DECIDED TO SELL HAVING CARED AND CHERISHED HIS RECORDS-MOST BOUGHT NEW AT THE TIME WITH MINIMAL PLAYS AS OFTEN THE CASE WITH LARGE COLLECTIONS.THEY WERE STORED UPRIGHT ON STRONG SHELVING AWAY FROM LIGHT,HEAT,DAMP AND THE PREVIOUS OWNER WAS A NON-SMOKER!  THIS IMPRESSIVE EXAMPLE HAS AMAZINGLY HAD VERY CAREFUL USE IN NEARLY 47 YEARS!  LOCATING A REALLY OUTSTANDING 1969 SET  IS ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE AS THE MAJORITY OF COPIES WERE PLAYED OVER AND OVER AGAIN CAUSING MAJOR DISTORTION AND GENERAL WEAR. THIS COPY HAS HAD SOME CAREFUL USE WITH GLEAMING SURFACES,JUST A FEW FAINT SURFACE MARKS ON TWO OF THE  SIDES VISIBLE UNDER STRONG LIGHT.HARDLY ANY  SURFACE NOISE. THE 1969 PRESSINGS HAVE FAR MORE BASS THAN THE LATER REISSUES. THE RECORDS HAVE NO LOUD CLICKS,NO STICKS OR JUMPS.STRICTLY AND SERIOUSLY GRADED AS EXCELLENT CONDITION!THICK VINYL. THERE IS HARDLY ANY SPINDLE WEAR AND NO LABEL WRITING,STAINING,RIPS OR DEFACEMENT!  THE CBS LPs ADVERT INNERS HAVE A FEW CREASES AND A COUPLE OF TINY TEARS BUT NO WRITING OR REPAIRS.THE GATEFOLD COVER HAS SOME RING WEAR,SURFACE WEAR AND SOME MILD STAINING AS WELL AS A FEW TINY EDGE CREASES BUT NO WRITING,RIPS OR REPAIRS!  PLEASE SEE ALL THE PHOTOS SHOWING THE FRONT AND BACK OF THE COVER AND ALL OF THE  LABELS!

Over the years I have helped to add to the collections of many  collectors and given my experience, I am aware of the titles that are GENUINE RARE ITEMS.

Now of course for those who are"chained"to the record collector price guide books,for whom I am one of the main consultants, the prices are still a SUGGESTION and as we all know ACTUAL prices SOLD can vary.

The sellers on ebay who continually put"listed"or "list price"on everything should be aware of this!!!!     

This is my honest grading!!!

Please see my listening policy below. 

I test on a lightweight pickup of approx 2 grammes and listen with the treble full on and no filtering or mono switch used.As both a collector and dealer,I AM VERY STRICT ON GRADING but DO CHECKOUT MY FEEDBACK FOR GRADING PROOF!!!!
