MARC BRIERLEY

HELLO

1969 UK CBS STEREO 63835

A1-B1

Here is a superb original uk stereo first pressing of the excellent second Acid-Psych-Folk album by the cult singer songwriter Marc Brierley. This album is now so hard to find that it virtually never surfaces for sale. The thick stereo vinyl is in brilliant very clean playing condition and has obviously been barely played at all. The E.J.Day matt gatefold sleeve has two small sticker removal marks on the front and some general edge and spine wear but it still looks great. This ultra-rare 1969 cult Acid-Folk-Psych album looks, plays and sounds superb throughout and will definitely not disappoint.

Both of Marc Brierleys very rare uk CBS albums are choc full of beautiful timeless acid-folk-psych tunes, if you like Nick Drake, Roy Harper and early Al Stewart and other similar artists then you will love this rare gem of an album by Marc Brierley.

Please click the play button below to listen to a full MP3 of the excellent short haunting track ''Today I Feel Like Leaving You'', the whole album is musically great but this track is one of my favourites.

 

 

FIRST PRESS STEREO VINYL = EX++/NM

The thick stereo vinyl is in brilliant very clean condition and looks very near perfect, both sides still have their original deep glossy sheen, there are no bad surface marks, scuffs or scratches, there are just a few ultra-light sleeve withdrawal traces and just one or two very fine hairlines that are visible in stronger light. All tracks play excellently with a nice clean and clear sound quality throughout, i listened to the album right through before listing it and there is just the minimal amount of very occasional minor background hiss/crackle. This beautiful original copy has only ever had just a few careful plays on a decent turntable and has been very well looked after. A excellent+ very clean playing copy that will not disappoint.

STEREO CBS LABELS = NM

Both labels are in very near perfect condition, side 2 has just one light spindle trace and side one is perfect with none at all, this is a very good indication on how little play this album has had.

E.J.DAY MATT GATEFOLD SLEEVE = VERY GOOD

The inside centre loading matt gatefold cover was made and printed in the uk by E.J.Day. The front has two small sticker removal marks, one narrow one at the bottom centre and another near the top right corner, these really are only small and could be easily disguised with the right colour pencil or pen. The back and inside gatefold are excellent with just some very light creasing. There is some wear along the spine and at the edges, the spine has flattened due to the nature of the inside loading sleeve design but all text is still clear and easy to read. This matt gatefold cover is now almost 40 years old and is still in pretty good shape.

The original CBS advertising inner sleeve is in very good condition, there are no splits or rips but there is some age yellowing and a crumpled affect.

I pack my records very well, the album will be removed from the outer cover to avoid seem/edge splits in transit, plenty of rigid cardboard support will be used to avoid corners bending, this album will reach you in the same condition as advertised.
