Description
THIS IS OFFICIALLY IN MY OPINION THE VERY RAREST RECORD IN MY VAST ARCHIVE. IT IS A SPECIAL RECORD BECAUSE (APART FROM MY RECENT PLAY TEST)IT IS UNPLAYED!! YES I BOUGHT IT FROM A FRIEND OF A RECORD EXECUTIVE IN 1989 WHO CONFIRMED THAT IS WAS A 100% UNPLAYED SPARE ARCHIVE COPY. A MINT 1971 UK FIRST PRESSING ON ONE OF THE VERY RAREST PROGRESSIVE LABELS & WITH THE BEST ROGER DEAN PSYCH COVERS. THE BEST IN EXISTENCE GUARANTEED. A FANTASTIC 1971 RECORD FEATURING PETE DELLO OF HONEYBUS. OF COURSE WHEN I BOUGHT THIS 21 YEARS AGO I WAS VERY TEMPTED TO PLAY IT BUT DARED NOT TO. I PUT IT IN A PLASTIC WALLET ON THE SHELF AND JUST ADMIRED THE BRILLIANT ARTWORK INSTEAD! MY PLAY TEST REVEALS FANTASTIC SOUND. IT PLAYS LIKE A BRAND NEW RECORD EVEN THOUGH OF COURSE IT IS 39 YEARS OLD. RECORD 6437001 with matrices 1Y//2 V 420 1 1 and 2Y//2 V 420 1 1 2. BASICALLY YOU WILL SEE THESE SMALL MACHINE PUNCHED MATRICES ARE LIKE THOSE ON THE UK VERTIGO SWIRL RECORDS. NEPENTHA WAS OF COURSE AN OFF SHOOT OF VERTIGO FEATURING PROGRESSIVE & FOLK ARTISTS. THE FANTASTIC UNLAMINATED GATEFOLD COVER IS IN EX+++ CONDITION, WITH VERY LITTLE INDEED TO FAULT. SEE THE MANY PHOTOS & JUDGE FOR YOURSELF. IT HAS LIKE VERTIGO SWIRL COVERS THE VO PRICE CODE TEXT ON THE BACK OF THE COVER AND THE TITLES/ LYRICS ON THE INSIDE. SUPER RARE & I AM CERTAIN THIS WILL BE JUST IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND IN THIS ARCHIVE ORDER HAVING ONLY BEEN PLAYED ON ONE OCCASION TO CHECK IT. PERFECTION FOR THE TRUE CONNOISSEUR & TIME WARP CONDITION LITERALLY. IT COMES IN THE ORIGINAL PLAIN INNER WITH PATENT Nos. 1125555 & Made in Great Britain text. I DO NOT PROFIT ON POSTAGE BUT WILL SEND WORLDWIDE IN PLASTIC SLEEVES, PROTECTIVE CARDBOARD MAILERS & CARDBOARD STIFFENERS - £5.99 TO UK SPECIAL DELIVERY) £9.49 TO EUROPE SIGNED FOR & INSURED BY TRACKED AIR MAIL AND £11.99 TO THE REST OF THE WORLD SIGNED FOR & INSURED AIR MAIL. A BIT MORE EXPENSIVE TO SEND THIS ONE BUT IT WILL BE INSURED. I WILL BE INCREDIBLY SAD INDEED TO SEE THIS MONSTER RARE BEAUTY GO !!. I WILL AS ALWAYS ENSURE IT IS SENT BOMB PROOF INSIDE A PLASTIC JACKET WITHIN A HEAVY DUTY CARD BOARD MAILER WITH STIFFENERS EITHER SIDE. RECORDS POSTED WITHIN 24 HOURS OF PAYPAL PAYMENT.
