Description

Detailed seller ratings:

Item as described: I list everything possible about this item, please read everything thoroughly and view ALL of the photographs. Please do not bid if you expect something different from the listing.

Communication: I will answer any sensible query quickly and politely, but please read the listing thoroughly first. I email the winner to thank them for the bid and to advise them of the likely dispatch date (usually within 24 hours of receiving payment). I email again to confirm dispatch and provide tracking number.

Dispatch time: I dispatch within 24 hours of cleared funds, sometimes even the same day if the payment is received early enough and I am able to get to the post office in time. After that, it's down to the Royal Mail and whichever international mail service is involved - all of which is out of my control.

Postage and packing costs: It generally costs me more than I charge for shipping by the time I add in my mailers, stiffeners, shipping labels, printer ink, packing tape, fragile labels, petrol to the post office...so I do not overcharge on my shipping costs in any way.

Feedback: I would appreciate your feedback after the sale and you have received your item and are happy with it. This means I can then leave feedback for you and our transaction is closed.

YOUNGBLOOD

UK 1st PRESS - MEGA RARE, IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND!

1. WHITE LABELS WITH RED TEXT
2. FOLD OUT POSTER SLEEVE
3. A1/B1 MATRIX
4. "YOUNG BLOOD RECORDS, 138 New Bond Street, London W1" on rear of poster sleeve

FULLY PLAY GRADED VINYL - FROM START TO FINISH - EXCELLENT PLAYBACK! READ THE FULL, DETAILED DESCRIPTION.

PLAYGRADED: not simply glanced at with a superficial visual grading, fully played and graded throughout (listened to on headphones - the most revealing playgrade method, with no exterior audio distractions)

VINYL:

S S Y B   1 4   A - 1

S S Y B   1 4   B - 1

Excellent looking vinyl with several light hairlines/sleeve removal marks only really visible under strong light that thankfully have little effect on audio.

Side One: audio is consistently EX to EX+ if not even better on the louder tracks. There is light background crackle which is totally obliterated on the loud tracks. Even the quieter intros play very well. Superb tone and volume throughout on this very first UK pressing. When are you likely to see another copy...?! Especially one that plays as well as this!

NOT ONE SINGLE POP OR CLICK! MINIMAL CRACKLE!

Side Two: plays just as well at the start of Side Two which again just has light background noise only audible on the quietest sections and easily covered by the loud audio.

AGAIN NOT ONE SINGLE POP OR CLICK! VERY LITTLE CRACKLE!

Plays right through with no jumps or sticks.

OUTER SLEEVE:

Original issue fold out poster sleeve in overall Good condition, with fairly typical wear on the edges for an unlaminated sleeve of 40 years old. Sadly, there is an area of paper surface loss on the front cover due presumably to a sticker removal. No seam splits. Spine is legible only in parts, moderate to quite heavy wear. When are you likely to find another copy though...?!

LABELS:

Excellent, NO graffiti, only a couple of spindle traces and plays remarkably well.

INNER SLEEVE:

Plain white.

Thanks for taking the time. Good luck in the auction.
