WITH RARE PASTED OVER BLINDMAN TEXT

THIS IS AN ORIGINAL 1965 UK IST PRESS : XARL-6619-2A : XARL-6620-2A 

STAMPERS :: 1 CU :: 1 ( NO LETTERS AT 3 O'CLOCK ).

'K T' STAMPED IN DEADWAX BOTH SIDES .

ON THE RED UNBOXED DECCA LABEL :: LK.4661 .

The association of blindpeople in Great Britain got very much upset by the original blindman text and they demanded that the text should be removed from the cover. Even politicians got involved in discussions and eventually Decca was forced to change the text. Decca had lots of ready made covers in stock when the decision to change the blind man text was taken. Instead of destroying all covers, they decided to print a single paper sheet with the new censored text version and glue it on top of the original back cover.The original back cover is slightly visible under the paste over paper sheet. The James Upton name as the cover manufacturer was not mentioned but only "Printed in England". The paste over version is only found on non flip covers.

COVER ::  ORIGINAL FRONT LAMINATED WITH PASTE COVER REAR ( IF YOU LOOK AT THE PHOTO YOU CAN JUST SEE THE ORIGINAL TEXT UNDER THE PASTE OVER SHEET, JUST BELOW 'ANDREW LOOG OLDHAM' ) :: SUPERB SPINE AND EDGES WITH ONLY A TINY RUB ON EACH CORNER AND OPENING EDGE STILL SHARP :: BRILLIANT LAMINATE, WHICH IS UNUSUAL AS THESE NO2 COVERS SUFFERED WITH LAMINATE PROBLEMS!!! THIS ONLY HAS FIVE SMALL LAMINATE CREASES TOWARDS OPENING EDGE AND A BIT OF LAMINATE LIFT ALONG SPINE EDGE IN TWO PLACES AND THE VERY FAINTEST OF RING WEAR SEEN ONLY WHEN ANGLED AT LIGHT :: THE BACK IS STILL NICE AND WHITE BUT THERE IS A NAME BOTTOM LEFT CORNER, AND WITH NO OTHER ISSUES :: EX/EX- .

VINYL :: UNDER BRIGHT LIGHT THERE ARE QUITE A FEW HAIRLINES AND WHISPY SPIDER WEB THREAD SLEEVE REMOVAL FINE LINES. WHEN ANGLED AWAY FROM LIGHT ALL THE ABOVE DISAPPEARS, SHOWING THAT THERE IS NOTHING NASTY OR FEELABLE, SO THERE ARE NO STICKS, SKIPS OR JUMPS ANYWHERE. THIS VINYL PLAYS THROUGH SUPERB WITH SOME SOFT TICKS BETWEEN TRACK 3 & 4, THEN TRACK 4 PLAYS WITH A VERY SOFT BACKGROUND TICK ON EACH REVOLUTION FOR ABOUT HALF THE TRACK, THIS IS NOT INTRUSIVE AND DOES NOTHING TO SPOIL THE TRACK :: SIDE 2 HAS SEVEN SOFT BACKGROUND TICKS IN THE MIDDLE OF TRACK 1 AND FIVE SOFT BACKGROUND POPS IN THE MIDDLE OF TRACK 2 .....THE REST OF THE VINYL PLAYS WITH NO PROBLEMS AND THERE IS NOTHING TO SPOIL YOUR LISTEN EXPERIENCE AS THERE IS NOTHING OVER THE TOP!!! I WOULD GRADE THE AUDIO PLAYBACK :: EX . IF NOT BETTER AS THE MONO AUDIO IS SUPERB. I ALWAYS PLAY GRADE MY ALBUMS TO TRY AND GET THE AUDIO LISTING SPOT ON!!!!!!
