Description

THIS MELLOW CANDLE GEM HAS BEEN STASHED AWAY IN THE OWNER'S LOFT FOR THE LAST 30 YEARS HAVING BEEN PURCHASED IN DUBLIN BACK IN 1973. A REALLY WONDERFUL AND EXTREMELY RARE ALBUM CURRENTLY FETCHING SUMS IN THE REGION OF £2500..   I WOULD CLASSIFY THE CONDITION OF THE GATEFOLD COVER AS VG+.  EDGES AND CORNERS ARE FINE.  NO CREASES, STAINS OR STICKER MARKS.  SOME WEAR BUT NO TEAR. THIS RECORD WAS PLAYED A LOT AND DESPITE BEING HANDLED WITH CARE THERE IS SOME SURFACE WEAR ON THE DISC ALTHOUGH THE OVERALL CONDITION i WOULD THINK, IS VG+.  I HAVE JUST LISTENED TO IT WITH HEADPHONES ON A QUALITY SOUND SYSTEM AND THERE IS SOME BACKGROUND CRACKLING.  WITHOUT THE HEADPHONES IT IS HARDLY NOTICEABLE.  NO SCRATCHES, SKIPS OR JUMPS TO DETRACT FROM THOSE SOARING VOCALS AND MAGIC HARMONIES.. THE LABEL AND SPINDLE HOLE ARE BOTH PERFECT APART FROM THE OWNER'S MONIKER IN THIN, COMPACT BALLPOINT PEN (MANY ALBUMS WENT AWOL IN THE 70s) ON THE LABEL OF SIDE 2 (SEE PHOTO),  RECORD COMES IN THE ORIGINAL INNER SLEEVE ALSO WITH OWNER'S SIGNATURE.IN BOTTOM CORNER.
Matrix Ref.   ZAL 11141P-1W   &  ZAL11142P-2W
