THE SMALL FACES RARE 1ST UK PRESSING=FROM THE BEGINNING

On offer here is one of the rarest small faces albums you’ll find. It’s the original Unboxed Red DECCA Issue of "FROM THE BEGINNING" -released in 1967.

The Vinyl has some surface marks and light scratches evident, but after cleaning and playing through twice, I can confirm that the album plays really well. There were no pops and clicks evident nor any appreciable surface noise. (except a little between tracks), Nor are there any skips or jumps. 

The "Grooved" Labels are in nice order, with moderate spindle wear. There is a small (1/16 inch?) darker red area around the hole on the (a) side. The Front Laminated "Clout & Baker Ltd" Cover is in nice order. The corners are tight though the spinal edge has some tiny cuts (difficult to tell if they pierce the cover or not) These are fairly standard on Lp’s of this age. On the back the colour is fine- There’s only the lightest of ageing and a small amount of ringwear. There‘s no serious creasing anywhere. I’ve undergraded the cover on purpose and I promise you won’t be disappointed .The original inner sleeve is with it.

All in all, it’s got the sound and feeling that only an original can have- It plays well and looks good both front and back. I guarantee what I’m saying as I back it with a fully refundable if not satisfied policy (including postage) so you can bid with confidence. I’m not saying it’s mint- but it’s not filler by a long way. If you get it I’m sure you’ll be happy with it.
