Hi, and welcome to "psych_out!" auctions!!!

I specialize in 50's, 60's, and early 70's records of almost every genre - Jazz, Blues, Psych, Folk, Soul, Rock, Pop e.t.c and everything in between! I've been dealing records for years, but i'm new to the ebay game so i'd like to tell you all of my intentions. I travel all over the UK hunting out the VERY BEST records I can find. Obviously, 90%+ of the ones I can find are completely trashed from the hard living ways and the rock 'n' roll, drug and booze fuelled debauchery of all the wild parties of the times, but the golden 10%? I offer them to all of you serious record collectors out there!!!

I'm going to start by listing 20 LP's a week every Friday and Saturday, all timed to end 10 days later on Monday and Tuesday night. Hopefully after a while, i'll be able to step things up a gear or two in good time. I'll only ever offer THE BEST, MOST AMAZING, MOST IMPORTANT, VERY RAREST UK 1ST PRESS ORIGINAL RELEASE RECORDS I can ever possibly find!!! I won't insult you with later 2nd pressings unless they are of exceptional quality and rarity. I'm sure you love good music as much as me, especially when it's a 1st Press LP, direct from the master tape, as the musicians intended it to be heard (none of this "digitally remastered", weak reissued, remixed rubbish from hired hands with one eye on the mixing desk and the other on the clock! If these session men really knew how genius should sound, surely they would've been geniuses themselves?! There will only ever be one Hendrix, and that's just a tiny example).

I intend to become one of the best sellers on ebay and would like to thank all of you potential bidders for your support and taste in music!!! I strictly grade all LP's I list, visually and sonically (on a very lightweight turntable) as customer satisfaction is highly important to me, and i'll always do my very best not to let you down. Be sure to add me to your favourite sellers list and check my auctions frequently as i'll be listing some gems that you just WON'T want to miss out on!!!

I think that's everything, so let the auction commence!!!

The LP :

Labels : Beautiful 1st Press Black / Yellow Parlophone labels. Both sides are FANTASTIC with NO writing, and NO real wear, just the usual ultra light spindle marks from use over the years!!! AMAZING for a 41 year old record!!! Both must grade overall as Near Excellent if not better!!!

Record : Visual - Spectacular 1st Press Vinyl!!! Nice, bright, and shiny as if it was just pressed!!! Fantastic jet black mirror like surfaces, it looks GREAT with NO nasty marks, NO scuffs, and NO real scratches whatsoever!!! The only blemishes are just the usual light, wispy sleeve traces (only visible in strong light) from where it has sat or been removed from it's cover over the years!!! UNBELIEVABLE for a record of this age and rarity!!! Must grade overall as Very Good++ if not better!!!

Record : Audio - Fantastic mono beef!!! It really sounds fantastic with NO hops, sticks, or skips!!! Only has the usual low level static crackle which nearly all records have, and it doesn't come close to overshadowing the music AT ALL!!! If anything, it gives it added soul!!! ASTONISHING for a record of this age and rarity!!! Must grade overall as Very Good++++ if not better!!!

Sleeve : Original front laminated Garrot and Lofthouse cover, complete with original inner!!! Very hard to find in anything approaching a good condition, most are spent, torn and worn due to age and the lifestyles of the buyers of this particular LP!!! This one is NOT and looks FANTASTIC!!! NO writing, NO stains, No Graffiti, hardly ANY creases whatsoever (the only ones there are TINY and barely noticeable!!!), NO splits and still strong and ultra solid after all these years!!! The spine is near perfect!!! The only thing that stops this getting a MUCH, MUCH higher grade is the usual slight dulling to the white front from age, though it's not TOO drastic, and doesn't detract from the visual brilliance of the sleeve AT ALL!!! Must grade overall as Excellent minus if not better!!! (apologies for any yellow light reflection in the pics) 

Summary : A truly AMAZING copy of this ASTONISHINGLY RARE 1ST PRESS LP!!! Don't miss out!!!
