Please note that this album is complete and original 1st UK Black Track pressing and is priced for its rarety and attraction to collectors, its condition sets it apart.
this is nearly a 56 year old vinyl 1st pressing!+ the elusive and hard to find insert with full lyrics!
Lyric sheet is a repro pretty faithful to the original.
Jimi Hendrix second album on Track released in 1967 , recorded April, May 67 in Olympic studios London , this followed "are you experienced" in the same year as Jimi was required to produce 2 albums for Track in that year, Jimi was playing and recording in London almost every day so this was no problem for the experience. Close on the follow up to the debut AYE.
Soon after the debut...recorded at Olympic Studios in Barnes London and released in London 1967 first on the iconic "UK Black Track label"
The photos of Olympic studios and a Tape machine from the era are not included.
It's reported that in the late 80s Virgins studio Manager Barbara Jeffries ordered that all the master tapes stored at Olympic go in the skip!
The bootleggers must have loved her...
This is an ex vinyl copy "Made in Great Britain" at 6 oclock on the black track mono label! as it should be on UK mono press
There are light surface removal lines only on both sides, some light scuffs, some under strong light, this is the original iconic Black UK Track label from 1967 only light surface noise in quiter parts , nothing serious on playback it has no skips or jumps or sticks.there are a few light surface ticks nothing to disrupt enjoyment.
This is not a MINT new or Archieve copy it has been played but a great affordable buy for any collector, this Jimis second track recording from 1967 is we believe harder to find than the first record ... here it is under £550! EX vinyl.
The original UK mono copies from 1967 are now so hard to find in this condition you can see £700+ is not unusual , here for less than £550 is a bargain....
The record Ex condition
Seldom seen under 600 gbp
This is a mono copy and sounds awesome and easily our favourite over the stereo copies.
A1 B1 matrixes
with inverted triangle) this is a very early copy in our view , see photos
clean labels no writing
This is in good shape no writing or stickers on labels, has some surface scratches, hairlines a few spindle lines there are some light removal scuffs and hairlines under strong light no skips or jumps on our Rega 3.
In ex condition at 56 with some visible scuffing from sleeve removal and general hairlines on both sides, from removal which show but do not disrupt play,there is very light static, its been handled over the years, bear in mind this is a 56 year old vinyl record! it has some hairlines and light scuffs to the vinyl under light , no skips or jumps.
Nice fat pre oil crisis 60s vinyl wow ! very flat on the table, test played on 2 decks wow great audio.
So thick and fat vinyl..very flat on then table.
See pictures in the listing you can see the light scuffs and light surface on the record. nothing seroius and it plays through without much disruption no skips or jumps and fully play tested on 2 decks one very light tracking.
There is some very light static in quieter passages and intros ,
Plays clear with bright crisp sound may benefit from a professional clean (we don't do this as it's an individual thing) some background static is noticeable in the quieter passages but not many of those!
The Cover is VGC + lyric insert is NR Ex " wow! Nice quality repro.
See pictures.

Having done it's job over 57 years the sleeve has siome wear at corners but no visible ringwear at the rear (see photos) and a liitle fraying in place but overall it holding up well.
No WRITING on sleeve , colours are good and not a lot fading, the thick card holds up well, no writing , names or stickers. record is always stored separate in recent years.
on the whole a good sleeve and a very collectable ex vinyl. there is some light rounding to corners . spine is in good shape,
a great EJ day (London) sleeve.
