Strong audio free of any pops or clicks. It has not been over played, in fact its barely been played at all; two or three times only. The channels are clean and unstressed and there is not even a hint of distortion anywhere on the record. The audio plays through with brilliant, strong. And, this is an ORIGINAL 1st Press BLUE COVER, and a fairly light coloured one at that. Graded at MINT-
This record plays with staggering power, great audio with virtually no surface sound at all to distract from the enjoyment of this great album. Even at the end of 'Time' and the run in to the 'Great Gig In the Sky', it is clean, crisp and rich.
The 'blue' tint covers that came with the first pressings, quickly changed to the standard charcoal black covers. And don't be fooled, these are completely different to all other covers from the UK pressings of DSOM. These covers themselves are rare and very valuable, and so hard to find with out heavily worn edges, corners and surfaces.
The Matt finish covers of DSOM have to be one of the most prone to wear, of all the classic vinyls from the sixties and early seventies. Having a dark matt finish and not having the advantage of being laminated, these covers usually faired pretty badly, with serious ring wear and scuffed along the edges. The spines are nearly always flattened, worn and scuffed. Not this one!
THE INNER
Original plain black poly lined inner sleeve in great condition. No tears, stains and NO seem splits at all. The flip backs are fully intact, flat and pressed down.
And don't be fooled, these are completely different to all other inner sleeves from the UK pressings of DSOM. These inners are themselves rare and valuable, and so hard to find with out heavy wear, graffiti, tears and splitting.
Graded at EX.
POSTERS
This 1st pressing of Dark Side of the Moon comes with BOTH original posters, in great condition. In flat MATT finish, these are not the same as the posters found in other pressings of DSOM.
A superb set with No tears or stains. Nice crisp edges. NO tape marks or pin holes!
Graded at NEAR MINT.
