	$		238

On offer here is a VERY rare LP (especially in this condition!!!!) by The Rolling Stones called "Rolling Stones No.2" and is an ORIGINAL 1970 MONO UK 2nd Pressing on the BOXED Decca label!!!!  THIS LP IS SERIOUSLY RARE AND VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND!!!!  THIS IS ONE OF THE ROLLING STONES RAREST LPs EVER AND VIRTUALLY NEVER TURNS UP FOR SALE!!!!  JUST TRY AND FIND ANOTHER ONE!!!!  THIS LP IS ONE OF THE MOST SOUGHT AFTER LPs ON THE DECCA LABEL - AND IS INCREDIBLY HARD TO LOCATE!!!!  THIS IS ALSO THE 'EARLIEST' 2ND PRESSING EVER MADE (AND NOT SOME MUCH LATER COMMON RE-ISSUE!) AND ONLY MISSED THE UNBOXED DECCA LABELS BY A MATTER OF DAYS ONLY!!!!  AND THIS IS VERY CLEARLY SHOWN - AS THE COVER STILL HAS THE 1ST PRESS 'BLIND MAN' CREDIT (LATER REMOVED!), 1960s THICK QUALITY VINYL (LATER ONES ARE MUCH THINNER!), A '11-69' (NOVEMBER 1969) 'DATE CODED' INNER SLEEVE, AND 'PLEATED ENDS' TO THE SPINE (LATER ONES DONT!)!!!!  SO DONT UNDERESTIMATE THE AMAZING RARITY OF THIS LP!!!!  FOR WHILST LATER 1970s 'RE-ISSUES' ARE VERY COMMON - 100% GENIUNE 1970 UK MONO 2ND PRESSINGS ARE VERY VERY RARE INDEED!!!!

BUT THERE IS ONE VERY IMPORTANT DETAIL - THAT MAKES THIS LP TRULY RARE!!!!  AS MANY PEOPLE ARE ALREADY AWARE - THE 'BLIND MAN' COVER CREDIT WAS WITHDRAWN FROM ALL COVERS OF THIS LP IN THE MID 1960s - SO YOU MAY BE WONDERING HOW IT COULD EXIST ON A COVER FROM 1970?  WELL THIS IS VERY EASY TO EXPLAIN.  THE ORIGINAL PRINTER OF ALL 1ST PRESS COVERS WAS 'JAMES UPTON LTD' AND THEY WITHDREW THE OFFENDING 'BLIND MAN' COVER TEXT FROM THEIR COVERS IN THE MID 1960s (AFTER PUBLIC OUTCRY!).  HOWEVER IN 1970 - 'JAMES UPTON' WERENT PRINTING COVERS FOR DECCA ANYMORE - AND INSTEAD, THIS PARTICULAR COVER WAS PRINTED BY THE 'MacNEILL PRESS' INSTEAD!!!!  BUT 'MacNEILL' AND DECCA MADE A ANOTHER MASSIVE ERROR - AS DECCA SENT 'MacNEILL' THE UNCORRECTED COVER PRINTING PLATES FOR THIS LP (WITH THE OFFENDING 'BLIND MAN' TEXT!)!!!!  ONLY A FEW HUNDRED COVERS WERE PRESSED LIKE THIS IN LATE 1969/EARLY 1970 ONLY - BEFORE MacNEILL ALSO REALISED THEIR MISTAKE, AND ALSO REMOVED THE 'BLIND MAN' TEXT FROM THE REVERSE OF THEIR COVERS ARE ASWELL!!!!  SO THE SIMPLE TRUTH OF THE MATTER - IS THAT THIS IS PROBABLY THE RAREST PRESSING OF THIS LP EVER MADE - AND AS ONLY A FEW HUNDRED COPIES WERE EVER MADE LIKE THIS!!!!  

BUT WHAT MAKES THIS LP REALLY SPECIAL - IS THAT IT IS IN ABSOLUTELY AMAZING CONDITION!!!!  IN FACT, THIS LP IS IN SUCH INCREDIBLE CONDITION - YOU WOULD ALMOST THINK IT WAS BOUGHT YESTERDAY!!!!  IT WAS ONLY PLAYED ONCE OR TWICE BY ITS 1 PREVIOUS OWNER, AND THEN STORED IN A RECORD BOX SINCE 1970 - NEVER TO BE TOUCHED AGAIN (UNTIL I ACQUIRED IT LAST WEEK)!!!!  AND THIS ALMOST MAKES THE PRESSING OF THIS LP IRRELEVANT - BECAUSE FINDING THIS LP (NOW 40 YEARS OLD!) IN THIS AMAZING CONDITION - IS TRULY UNHEARD OF!!!!  SO THINK VERY VERY CAREFULLY BEFORE PASSING ON THIS LP - BECAUSE EARLY MONO PRESSINGS OF THIS LP VIRTUALLY NEVER TURN UP IN THIS AMAZING CONDITION TODAY!!!!

THIS IS THE ORIGINAL 1970 UK MONO 2ND PRESSING ON THE BOXED DECCA LABEL, ORIGINAL LATE 1969 'DATE CODED' RED MONO INNER SLEEVE, AND ORIGINAL 'MacNEILL' LAMINATED MONO COVER (WITH ULTRA RARE 1970 ONLY 'BLIND MAN' TEXT - AND WITH 'PLEATED ENDS' TO THE SPINE!)!!!!  THIS LP IS SERIOUSLY RARE AND VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND LIKE THIS - SO DONT MISS OUT ON THIS AMAZING OPPORTUNITY!!!! This is the ORIGINAL UK MONO 2nd Pressing from 1970 on the 2nd Press BOXED Decca label and is in AMAZING condition!!!!  The record is pressed on THICK quality vinyl.  The Cat. No is LK 4661 on the 2nd Press BOXED Decca Label (see picture) and is a UK MONO Pressing!!!! 

The record labels are in AMAZING condition (see pictures) with NO wear, NO writing, and barely ANY spindle marks AT ALL!!!!  IT IS VERY CLEAR THAT THIS RECORD HAS BARELY BEEN PLAYED AT ALL!!!!  The vinyl is in AWESOME 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 NO scratches, NO hairlines, NO scufflines, and only a VERY few of the lightest paper scuffs only visible under light!!!!  ITS AS SIMPLE AS THAT!!!!  THE RECORD STILL RETAINS ITS ORIGINAL 'JUST PRESSED' LOOK AND LOOKS AMAZING!!!!  It is also great to find that the record plays as STUNNINGLY as the visual with NO pops, NO sticking, NO jumps, and barely ANY crackle AT ALL!!!!  The sound quality is simply SUPERB with NO distortion and NO groovewear either!!!!  The record must grade Excellent++++ if not MINT(Minus)!!!!  AWESOME RECORD!!!!  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 Late 1969 'Date Coded' Red Mono inner sleeve which is in BRILLIANT condition!!!!  The ORIGINAL 2nd Press 'MacNeill' Laminated MONO Cover (with 'Blind Man' text!) is in AMAZING condition!!!!  It has NO edge wear, NO spinal wear, barely ANY corner wear AT ALL (NOT through the colour - and SUPERB square shape!), barely ANY creases AT ALL (virtually NONE - and the cover is PERFECTLY flat looking!), STUNNING shiny 'mirror-like' laminate, and NO writing!!!!  The opening edge is beautifully straight with NO feathering!!!!  Even the unlaminated back of the cover is in AMAZING condition with NO grubbyness, NO rubbing, NO yellowing, and NO writing!!!!  The cover must grade Excellent++++ if not MINT(Minus)!!!!  AMAZING COVER!!!!  THIS LP IS SERIOUSLY RARE AND VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND LIKE THIS - SO DONT MISS OUT ON THIS INCREDIBLE OPPORTUNITY!!!!
