SELF TITLED DEBUT ALBUM !!!!
MONO
PRESSED ON UNBELIEVABLE 163gms ORIGINAL 1965 VINYL AND PLAYS WITH EX/EX+ AUDIO!!!!
TIME FOR SOME CLASSIC 1960's R & B AND GARAGE ROCK, FROM ONE OF MY FAVOURITE 60's BANDS ALONG WITH THE KINKS, AND THIS IS 'THE PRETTY THINGS', WHO WERE FORMED IN 1963 IN SIDCUP KENT IN ENGLAND, AND THIS THEIR AMAZING DEBUT ALBUM RELEASED ON MARCH 12th 1965. PLAYS SUPERB AS YOU WILL SEE BELOW, AND REALLY WILL BE A VERY SAD LOSS FROM MY PERSONAL VINYL COLLECTION !!

BEFORE YOU READ ON, I WOULD JUST LIKE TO MENTION ABOUT SHIPPING. DUE TO THE TERRIBLE VIRUS, THERE IS UNCERTAINTY IN WHAT IS GOING TO HAPPEN NEXT, AND SHIPPING COULD BE AFFECTED. I AM CONTINUING TO LIST, AND SHIP AS USUAL. IF YOU HAVE WON ANY LP'S, AND I AM UNABLE TO SHIP I WILL KEEP THEM VERY SAFE, AND SHIP WHEN THINGS ARE BACK TO NORMAL. TAKE CARE AND BE EXTRA SAFE, AND IF YOU HAVE AN QUESTIONS, PLEASE ASK ME, THANK YOU, ROSE . 
DISCLAIMER :: ALL MY LP'S LISTED ON THIS SITE ARE ORIGINAL AND NOT FAKE OR COUNTERFEIT, AND ARE SOLD IN GOOD FAITH. THEY WERE BOUGHT ON THE DATE OF ISSUE. THANK YOU !!

THIS IS AN ORIGINAL 1965 UK 1ST PRESS  ::  687341 1L//1  V 420   ::  687341 2L//1  V 420 .
ON THE BLACK AND SILVER TEXTURED MONO  LABEL ::  TL.5239 .
COVER ::  ORIGINAL FRONT LAMINTED FLIPBACK WITH SOLID SPINE AND EDGES, WITH A SMALL LIGHT RUB ON THE BOTTOM EDGE IN THE MIDDLE, AND A SMALL RUB ON THE CORNERS. NICE LAMINATE WITH SOME SMALL LAMINATE CREASE LINES AROUND THE EDGES, AND A TINY BIT OF LAMINATE LIFT IN THE MIDDLE ON THE OPENING SIDE EDGE, AND A BIT OF FAINT RING WEAR ON THE FRONT, SEEN WHEN THE COVER IS ANGLED A CERTAIN WAY. THE BACK HAS SOME AGE RELATED HANDLING MARKS, AND A SMALL FAINT OUTLINED NAME, IN THE TOP RIGHT CORNER, WHICH IS HARD TO SEE. THERE IS NOTHING ELSE, AND I WOULD GRADE THIS VERY NICE SOLID ORIGINAL MONO COVER  :: VG+ . 
VINYL :: THE VINYL PLAYS SUPERB, AND IS PRESSED ON 163 gms ORIGINAL VINYL, AND GREAT NEWS NO STATIC OR CRACKLE, AND NO SKIPS, STICKS OR JUMPS, AND IN FACT NOTHING AT ALL TO WORRY ABOUT. TO MAKE THINGS EASIER I WILL DO A TRACK BY TRACK AUDIO DESCRIPTION, AND PLEASE REMEMBER WHAT IS NOT MENTIONED PLAYS PERFECT >>>> SIDE 1 :: TRACK 1 :: PLAYS FINE WITH NOTHING TO MENTION . TRACK 2 :: HAS A VERY FAINT TICK AT THE VERY END  TRACK 3 :: PLAYS FINE WITH NOTHING TO MENTION . TRACK 4 :: HAS A FAINT TICK AT THE START . TRACK 5 :: HAS A FAINT TICK AT THE START, AND A FAINT TICK IN THE MIDDLE . TRACK 6 :: PLAYS FINE WITH NOTHING TO MENTION .
SIDE 2 :: TRACK 1 :: PLAYS FINE WITH NOTHING TO MENTION . TRACK 2 :: PLAYS FINE WITH NOTHING TO MENTION . TRACK 3 :: HAS A VERY FAINT TICK IN THE MIDDLE . TRACK 4 :: HAS A VERY FAINT TICK IN THE MIDDLE . TRACK 5 :: PLAYS FINE WITH NOTHING TO MENTION . TRACK 6 :: PLAYS FINE WITH NOTHING TO MENTION .
VISUALLY AWAY FROM BRIGHT LIGHT THE VINYL STILL HAS A LOVELY SHINE, AND WHEN HELD UNDER BRIGHT LIGHT THERE ARE SOME COSMETIC SLEEVE REMOVAL ULTRA FINE LINES, SOME COSMETIC HAIRLINES, AND A COUPLE OF LONGER ONES, AND A FAINT THIN TOTALLY COSMETIC GHOST SCUFF LINE ACROSS SIDE 2. I CAN ASSURE YOU THESE HAVE JUST A VISUAL AFFECT UNDER BRIGHT LIGHT AND NOT AN AUDIO AFFECT, AS THEY ALL DISAPPEAR AWAY FROM BRIGHT LIGHT. SO FOR THAT AUDIO GRADE, AND I WOULD GRADE THE AUDIO A CRYSTAL CLEAR  :: EX/EX+ . 
LABELS :: NICE AND CLEAN, AND TEXTURED, WITH SOME LIGHT SPINDLE LINES AT THE CENTRE SEEN UNDER BRIGHT LIGHT :: EX/EX- .

POLYLINED INNER :: NO SPLITS OR WRITING, LOVELY AND CLEAN  :: EX- .
WELL THERE YOU HAVE IT, WHAT AN ALBUM, A TRUE CLASSIC 60's MASTERPIECE, AND A MUST HAVE. PLAYS FANTASTIC AND AS DESCRIBED, AND CERTAINLY ONE NOT TO FORGET ABOUT !!!! THANK YOU AS ALWAYS FOR YOUR TIME !!!!  ROSE. IF SLEEVE REMOVAL AND HAIRLINES ARE MENTIONED, THEN THEY ARE TOTALLY COSMETIC AND HARMLESS, AND THESE ARE NOT SCRATCHES, AS YOU WILL KNOW SCRATCHES ARE FEELABLE AND CAUSE AUDIO PROBLEMS, SO IF THERE WERE ANY SCRATCHES, I WOULD MENTION THEM, THANK YOU ! 
TAKE CARE AND BE SAFE !!!!
