VINYL

THE VINYL IS VERY HEAVY AND THICK ONLY FOUND ON EARLY PRESSINGS, LIKE THIS ONE AND HAVE A BEAUTIFUL BRIGHT SHEEN!! THE RECORD IS IN AWESOME CONDITION AND LOOKS AMAZING!!!! UNDER VERY STRONG LIGHT I CAN ONLY SEE A HANDFUL OF THE LIGHTEST SLEEVE REMOVAL MARKS AND THREE LIGHT HAIRLINES SIDE ONE (SIDE TWO LOOKS NEAR UNPLAYED!!), BUT NO OTHER MARKS, SCRATCHES ETC.!!!! UNDER NORMAL LIGHT THE COMPLETE RECORD LOOKS LIKE NEW!!!! SO I GRADED THE VINYL AS TOP EXCELLENT+!!! UNBELIEVABLE FOR A RECORD WHO IS 43 YEARS OLD!!!! HARD TO FIND A BETTER LOOKING MONO COPY!!

AUDIO

I PLAYED THE COMPLETE RECORD AT VERY LOUD VOLUME!!! THE AUDIO QUALITY IS JUST AMAZING!!!! BOTH SIDES PLAYS CRYSTAL CLEAR!!!! THERE ARE NO LOUD CLICKS OR POPS!!!!! TOP/PERFECT AUDIO ON ALL FREQUENCIES!!!!! I PLAYED TRACK FOR TRACK AND ALL I´VE HEARD WAS A MINIMAL LIGHT BACKGROUND NOISE IN THE QUIETER PARTS AND A FEW LIGHT SOFT/STATIC KLICKS, THAT´S ALL (AND THAT´S NORMAL FOR A MONO RECORD FROM 1968)!!!! ON MY SYSTEME THE COMPLETE RECORD PLAYS ABSOLUTELY TOP/ PERFECT!!!! IN MY OPINION ONLY THE EARLIEST PRESSINGS HAVE THE BEST AUDIO QUALITY!! THIS IS THE EARLIEST PRESS EVER AND IT SOUNDS SUPERB!!!! VERY VERY  VIBRANT, CLEAR AND DEEP MONO SOUND, PERFECT AUDIO, TOP ON ALL FREQUENCIES!!! PLAYS 100% FLAT WITHOUT ANY SKIPS OR STICKS!!!

COVER

THIS IS THE 1st PRESS LAMINATED GATEFOLD COVER PRINTED BY "ROBERT STACE" IN NEAR PERFECT CONDITION!!! THERE IS A LITTLE "D" WRITTEN INSIDE THE GATEFOLD, THOUGH IT IS ONE OF THE BEST COPYS I´VE EVER SEEN FROM THIS ONE!!! PLEASE TAKE A LOOK AT THE PICTURES, AND YOU´LL SEE A TOP COVER WITH A PERFECT SPINE ETC.!!! ULTRA RARE AND HARD TO FIND IN THIS CONDITION!!! NORMALLY ALWAYS TOTALLY TRASHED BUT THIS ONE IS IN AWESOME CONDITION!!! SO I GRADED THE COVER AS TOP EXCELLENT+ (IF NOT MUCH BETTER)!!! BELIEVE ME, YOU´LL STRUGGLE TO FIND A BETTER ONE, ESPECIALLY A 1st PRESS MONO COPY!!!

LABELS

THE ORIGINAL UNBOXED DECCA LABELS LOOKS NEAR PERFECT!!!! A LITTLE "D" IS WRITTEN ON LABEL SIDE ONE OTHERWISE TOP WITHOUT ANY SPINDLE MARKS!!! THIS IS THE EARLIEST PRESS WITH 1A/1A MATRIX ENDINGS AND EARLIEST EVER 1C/1C MOTHER STAMPERS!!!
