THIS LP IS SERIOUSLY RARE AND SIMPLY IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND!!!! THIS IS ONE OF THE PRETTY THINGS RAREST LPs EVER - AND VIRTUALLY NEVER TURNS UP FOR SALE!!!! JUST TRY AND FIND ANOTHER ONE!!!! BACK IN 1965 WHEN THIS LP WAS FIRST RELEASED - IT ONLY EVER SOLD IN ABSOLUTELY TINY AMOUNTS, AND WAS ALMOST IMMEDIATELY DELETED!!!!

THIS IS THE ORIGINAL 1965 UK 1ST PRESSING ON THE 1ST PRESS FONTANA LABEL, 1ST PRESS INNER SLEEVE, AND 1ST PRESS LAMINATED MONO COVER!!!! THIS LP IS SERIOUSLY RARE AND SIMPLY IMPOSSIBLE TO LOCATE - SO DONT MISS OUT ON THIS AMAZING OPPORTUNITY!!!! This is the ORIGINAL Fontana UK 1st Pressing from 1965 and is in GREAT condition overall!!!! The record is pressed on THICK quality vinyl. The Cat. No is TL 5280 on the ORIGINAL 1st Press Fontana label (see picture) and is a UK MONO 1st Pressing!!!!

The record labels are in BRILLIANT condition (see pictures) with NO wear, NO writing, and only a few light spindle marks!!!! The vinyl is in GREAT condition!!!! Most of these 60s LPs had been to a lot of wild parties and are usually found totally worn out, and almost unplayable. This one is NOT and has only a few light hairlines, only 2 or 3 MEGA light scufflines, only 3 or 4 TINY surface marks, and only a few of the lightest paper scuffs only visible under light!!!! THE RECORD STILL RETAINS ITS ORIGINAL 'JUST PRESSED' LOOK!!!! It is also great to find that the record plays as STUNNINGLY as the visual with only a few light clicks/pops (though mostly NONE!), NO sticking, NO jumps, and only some VERY low level background crackle in places. The sound quality is simply SUPERB with NO distortion and NO groovewear either!!!! The record is also a bit uneven - though I tested this on 2 different systems and BOTH easily tracked the LP with NO problems AT ALL!!!! The record must MEGA STRICTLY grade Good++++ (PROPERLY graded, NOT trashed!) if not better!!!! Believe me this record is NOT overgraded in ANY way!!!! I use STRICT RC grading standards - it is not in my interest not to!!!! Brillant!!!! The record also comes in its ORIGINAL 1st Press inner sleeve which is in BRILLIANT condition!!!! The 1st Press Laminated MONO Cover is in GREAT condition overall!!!! It has NO edge wear, NO spinal wear, only slight corner wear (NOT through the colour!), only a few VERY light creases (cover is VERY flat looking!), VERY shiny laminate, and NO writing!!!! The opening edge is beautifully straight with NO feathering!!!! Even the unlaminated back of the cover is in GREAT condition overall with NO grubbyness, NO yellowing, only 3 faint residue traces, 2 VERY minor touches of wear, and NO writing!!!! The cover must MEGA STRICTLY grade Good++++ if not better and is still VERY presentable indeed!!!! THIS LP IS SERIOUSLY RARE AND SIMPLY IMPOSSIBLE TO LOCATE - SO DONT MISS OUT ON THIS INCREDIBLE OPPORTUNITY!!!!
