Here this listing a classic HARVEST lime label "ALCHEMY" the Third ear band are .....
Glen Sweeney, Paul Minns, Richard Coff, Mel Davis, plus John Peel & Dave Tomlin.
A great outstanding copy on the ORIGINAL harvest 1969 label release with A1 & B1.
Condition is ovearall very impressive and perfectly acceptable of this sought after avent garde prog collectable. Bernanrd Parmegiani also played live with the band in London in their early incantations. The sound of this L.P. Demands an educated ear some patience to listen & take time to understand what exactly the third ear band are trying to get across here in this work titled "Alchemy" definately a trip in to the mind here, or out of it, whichever way you view it!
A rare record which sits perfectly flat & is spotless apart from (1) tiny blemish on the middle. I don't know what this is, but it may come off with a cleaning kit & did not appear to effect the play. the lime green harvest labels are in top condition, as is the gatefold cover. The cover has very, very minimal wear, an intact and clearly legible spine. And if your reading this then you probably know the deal with this record. Hard to find today as an A1 & B1 press. A rating of 95% out of 100 overall.
Please see the extra large close up view of this actual item below the end of this description......Thanks.

>> Grading of Items All items are graded conservatively according to Record Collectors Grading System Record Collectors Grading system
Mint (M) The record itself is in brand new condition with no surface marks or deterioration in sound quality. The cover and any extra items such as the lyric sheet. booklet or poster are in perfect condiition. Records marked as Sealed or Unplayed should be Mint.
Excellent (EX) The record shows some signs of having been played, but there is very little lessening in sound quality. The cover and packaging might have slight wear and/or creasing.
Very Good (VG) The record has obviously been played many times, but displayes no major deterioration in sound quality, despite noticeable surface marks and the occasional light scratch. Normal wear and tear on the cover or extra items, without any moajor defects is acceptable
Good (G) Te record has been played so much that the sound quality has notceably deteriorated, perhaps with some distortion and mild scratches. The cover and contents suffer from folding, scuffing of edges, spine splits, discolouration, etc
Fair (F) The record is still just playable but has not been cared for properly and displays considerable surface noise; it may even jump. The cover and contents will be torn, stained and/or defaced.
Poor (P) The record will not play properly due to scratched, bad surface noise, etc. The cover and contents will be badly damaged or partly missing Bad (B) The record is unplayable or might even be broken, and is only of use as a collection-filler
CD's and CASSETTES As a general rule CD's and Cassettes either play perfectly - inwhich case they are in Mint condition - or they don't, in which case their value is minimal. Cassette tape is liable to deteriorate with age, even if it remains unplayed, so care should be taken when buying old tapes. CD's are difficult to grade visually; they can look perfect but actually be faulty, while in other cases they may appear damaged but still play perfectly. Cassette and CD inlays and booklets should be graded in the same way as record covers and sleeves. In general, the plastic containers for cassettes and CDs can easily be replaces if they are broken or scratched, but card covers and digipaks are subject to the same wear as record sleeves
