KEVIN AYRES AND THE WHOLE WORLD SHOOTING AT THE MOON
PLAYS WITH EX+ AUDIO !!!!
(PLEASE READ THE AUDIO DESCRIPTION, THANK YOU)
PRESSED OFF THE FIRST MOTHER  1 P / 1 GD.
THIS IS THE AMAZING, KEVIN AYRES, WHO WAS FROM ENGLAND, FOUNDER MEMBER OF PSYCH ROCK BAND, "SOFT MACHINE" IN THE MID 1960's. THIS IS HIS 2nd ALBUM, AND IS IN FANTASTIC ALL ROUND CONDITION, AND COMES FROM MY TREASURED PERSON VINYL COLLECTION !!!!
THIS IS ACTUALLY A 1972 UK REPRESS OF THE 1970 UK 1ST PRESS. NOW AN INTERESTING FACT IS THAT THE VINYL AND LABELS ARE IDENTICAL AS THE 1ST PRESS ( EVEN THE MATRIX NUMBERS), AND ALSO THE LAMINATED FLIPBACK COVER, AND THE ONLY DIFFERENCE IS THAT THE 'EMI' BOXES WERE ADDED !
I AM ON HOLIDAYS IN CORNWALL FROM 18th JUNE TO 25th JUNE, SO THERE WILL BE NO ONE HERE TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS DURING THAT TIME. ALL SHIPPING COSTS ARE IN THE SHIPPING DETAILS, THANK YOU, BE SUPER SAFE, ROSE.
DISCLAIMER :: ALL MY LP'S LISTED ON THIS SITE ARE ORIGINAL AND NOT FAKE OR COUNTERFEIT, AND ARE SOLD IN GOOD FAITH. THEY WERE BOUGHT ON THE DATE OF ISSUE. THANK YOU !!
BEFORE YOU READ ON, I WOULD JUST LIKE TO MENTION ABOUT SHIPPING. DUE TO THE TERRIBLE VIRUS, THERE IS UNCERTAINTY IN WHAT IS GOING TO HAPPEN NEXT, AND SHIPPING COULD BE AFFECTED. I AM CONTINUING TO LIST, AND SHIP AS USUAL. IF YOU HAVE WON ANY LP'S, AND I AM UNABLE TO SHIP I WILL KEEP THEM VERY SAFE, AND SHIP WHEN THINGS ARE BACK TO NORMAL. TAKE CARE AND BE EXTRA SAFE, AND IF YOU HAVE AN QUESTIONS, PLEASE ASK ME, THANK YOU, ROSE . 
THIS IS AN ORIGINAL 1972 UK REPRESS  ::  SHSP 4005 A-2G  ::  SHSP 4005 B-2G .
PRESSED OFF THE FIRST MOTHER  :: 1  P  :: 1  GD .
'THE GRAMOPHONE CO LTD' RIM TEXT .

ON THE HARVEST EMI LABEL  ::  SHSP 4005 .

COVER ::  ORIGINAL FRONT LAMINATED FLIPBACK, PRINTED AND MADE BY GARROD & LOFTHOUSE Ltd PATENT No 943.895 SHSP 4005. BEAUTIFUL SOLID SPINE AND EDGES WITH NOTHING TO MENTION, AND ALSO LOVELY LAMINATE WITH NO LIFT, JUST A FEW TINY LAMINATE CREASE LINES AROUND THE EDGES, AND A BIT OF FAINT RING WEAR ON THE FRONT WHEN THE COVER IS ANGLED A CERTAIN WAY UNDER BRIGHT LIGHT. THE BACK IS FREE FROM WRITING AND ALL THE FLIP BACKS ARE IN GREAT CONDITION, JUST SOME LIGHT HANDLING MARKS DOWN THE OPENING SIDE EDGE, AND THE OPENING EDGE IS STILL SHARP, AND WITH NOTHING ELSE, I WOULD GRADE  :: VG+/EX- .  BUT SO MUCH NEARER TO EX- !!!!

VINYL ::  THE AUDIO PLAYS WITH NO NASTY ISSUES, SO NO STICKS, JUMPS OR STICKS, CLICKS, POPS OR LOUD TICKS, AND IN FACT NOTHING NASTY OR INTRUSIVE, WHICH I WILL EXPLAIN BELOW>> 

VISUALLY, AWAY FROM BRIGHT LIGHT THE VINYL LOOKS LOVELY, BUT WHEN HELD UNDER BRIGHT LIGHT THERE ARE SOME COSMETIC SLEEVE REMOVAL SPIDER WEB THREAD ULTRA FINE LINES, SOME SMALL COSMETIC HAIRLINES, AND FOR SOME UNKNOWN REASON THERE SEEMS TO BE MORE ON SIDE 2, AND A FEW SMALL COSMETIC SCUFF LINES. THERE IS A MORE NOTICEABLE HAIRLINE ON TRACK 1 ON SIDE 2, AND IT IS VERY SLIGHTLY FEELABLE IN A FEW PLACES, WHICH HAPPEN TO BE ON THE VERY QUIET SECTION.

NOW TO PROOVE THERE ARE NO AUDIO ISSUES THE LAST QUARTER OF SIDE 1 IS VERY QUIET SO IF THERE WERE ANY ISSUES THEN YOU WOULD HEAR THEM ON THE AUDIO, BUT NOTHING TO WORRY ABOUT AS IT PLAYS THROUGH SUPERB, WITH JUST THREE VERY FAINT TICKS.

SIDE 2 AS MENTIONED HAS THAT SLIGHTLY FEELABLE HAIRLINE ON TRACK 1, ON THE VERY QUIET SECTION, AND YOU CAN HERE SOME VERY FAINT TICKS, AND I CAN ASSURE YOU THEY ARE VERY FAINT, AND DO NOT SPOIL YOUR LISTENING PLEASURE.

ONCE AGAIN A DIFFICULT ONE TO GRADE, SO I WILL SPLIT THE AUDIO GRADE TO GIVE YOU A FAR BETTER AUDIO DESCRIPTION >>>>

THE MIDDLE QUIET SECTION ON TRACK 1, ON SIDE 2, I WOULD GRADE THE AUDIO WITH THOSE FAINT TICKS MENTIONED ABOVE  :: VG .

SIDE 1, AND THE REST OF SIDE 2, I WOULD GRADE THE AUDIO  :: EX+/NEAR MINT .   BUT WITH THOSE THREE FAINT TICKS ON SIDE 1, PROBABLY BE SAFE TO SAY NEARER TO EX+ !!!!

LABELS :: LOVELY CLEAN WITH NO ISSUES :: EX+ .

ORIGINAL INNER ::  NO SPLITS OR WRITING, WITH JUST LIGHT AGEING, AND SOME LIGHT CORNER CREASING AND OF COURSE THE VINYL WILL COME IN A NEW POLYLINED INNER ALONG WITH THE ORIGINAL :: VG/VG+ .

REALLY SUPERB ALBUM, AND IN ALL ROUND LOVELY CONDITION, AND THEY DO NOT TURN UP LIKE THIS VERY OFTEN !!!! THANK YOU AS ALWAYS FOR YOUR TIME !!!! ROSE.

DUE TO WHAT IS GOING ON IN OUR CRAZY WORLD, I AM SORRY ALL PACKAGES WILL BE SENT ROYAL MAIL INTERNATIONAL TRACKED WITH A TRACKING NUMBER, WHICH IS SAFEST AND BEST WAY, SO WE CAN TRACK YOUR PACKAGE, THANK YOU !!!! 

IF SLEEVE REMOVAL AND HAIRLINES ARE MENTIONED, THEN THEY ARE TOTALLY COSMETIC AND HARMLESS, AND THESE ARE NOT SCRATCHES, AS YOU WILL KNOW SCRATCHES ARE FEELABLE AND CAUSE AUDIO PROBLEMS, SO IF THERE WERE ANY SCRATCHES, I WOULD MENTION THEM, THANK YOU !
