This is the ORIGINAL Decca UK MONO 1st Pressing from 1966 and is in BRILLIANT condition overall!!!! The record is pressed on THICK quality vinyl. The Cat. No is LK 4790 on the ORIGINAL 1st Press UNBOXED Decca label (see picture) and is a UK MONO 1st pressing!!!! All the tracks are pure quality Small Faces at their best!!!! Any fan of Small Faces, or 60s music in general, will want to have this in their collection!!!!

The record labels are in STUNNING condition (see pictures) with NO writing, and only a few light spindle marks!!!!  The vinyl is in GREAT condition overall and plays BRILLIANTLY!!!! 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 1 visually obvious hairline type mark, only 2 or 3 light scufflines, only 2 or 3 light hairlines, a VERY small area on EXTREMELY light scuffing (only visible under light), 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 VERY light intermittent click/pops from the hairline type mark mentioned above (though these are always EXTREMELY low level indeed, and there is virtually NONE elsewhere), NO sticking, NO jumps, and barely ANY crackle AT ALL!!!!  There is NO groovewear and NO distortion either!!!!  The record must grade Very Good(Minus) (PROPERLY graded, NOT trashed) if not better!!!!  It is also worth noting that this record plays BRILLIANTLY, and without the hairline type mark (mentioned above) this record would have a FAR higher grading!!!!  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 comes in its ORIGINAL 1st Press 'Handling/Playing' inner sleeve which is in SUPERB condition!!!! The 1st Press Laminated Cover is in STUNNING condition!!!! It has NO edge wear, NO spinal wear, only VERY slight corner wear, VERY shiny laminate, only a few light creases (cover is flat looking), a small area of laminate lifting in the bottom right corner, and NO writing!!!!  The opening edge is beautifully straight with NO feathering!!!!  But what makes this cover REALLY special is that the unlaminated back is in STUNNING condition!!!!  Most 1st Pressings of this LP have terrible cover backs - with heavy yellowing, stains, ringwear, and noticeable heavy grubbyness/aging.  BUT NOT THIS ONE!!!!  This has to be one of the BEST cover backs for this LP I have EVER seen!!!!  It has NO grubbyness AT ALL, NO writing, NO rubbing, and AMAZINGLY absolutely NO yellowing AT ALL!!!!  The cover MUST grade Very Good++++ if not better - and it is virtually IMPOSSIBLE to find a 1st Press cover for this LP like this one!!!!   THIS IS ONE OF THE SMALL FACES RAREST LPS AND VIRTUALLY NEVER TURNS UP FOR SALE!!!!  THIS LP IS SERIOUSLY RARE AND VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND - SO DONT MISS OUT ON THIS MEGA RARE OPPORTUNITY!!!!
