Description
Hi, my name is Brian and I have been collecting vinyl for many years.
I am known on ebay for selling VERTIGO swirl/spiral albums from my vast personal collection, but I also have other albums on just as interesting labels such as HARVEST, DERAM, PEGASUS, NEON, ISLAND, DAWN, B&C/CHARISMA, DANDELION, ATLANTIC etc which I am now putting up for sale.
I am not and have never been a 'dealer' by profession, but I have always given honest descriptions and lots of clear photo's of any items I have sold. I do know how disappointing it is when you open that package and the item has been over sold with expressions such as "AWESOME" etc when the item is only in EX- condition or worse. If you are in anyway disappointed with an item from me you are most welcome to return it with a FULL REFUND, providing it is an honest and just mistake by myself as I believe in my descriptions.
SO HERE WE GO.......
For sale here is --THIRD EAR BAND--ALCHEMY-- 1969 UK ORIGINAL VERY FIRST STEREO PRESS ON THE HARVEST LABEL
STEREO SHVL 756
PLEASE SEE THE CLOSE-UP PICTURES FOR THE MATRIX No.S
SLEEVE...GATEFOLD and LAMINATED. This sleeve is very flat and square. The colours are fresh looking and un-faded. The top edge is unsplit and is in EX condition, the bottom edge is unsplit and is in EX- condition. The spine has some light laminate lift and a very small amount of it has worn away but all the information is readable, and there is a small amount of light creases EX-. The opening edges are in EX condition. There is wear to the tips of the corners. The front is in EX condition with NO UNWANTED WRITING, NO TEARS and NO STAINS, there is surface rub and some light, small creases. The rear of the sleeve is also in EX condition. The inner gatefold is in EX condition with minimal wear. This is a GREAT condition sleeve for 39 years of age. EX.
LABELS.....Very first press, NO EMI LOGO and THEY HAVE THE GRAMAPHONE TEXT. There is NO unwanted writing, stickers, residue or tears. There are only 1or 2 spindle marks on either side, and a few age fade spots. EX/EX.
VINYL...... When you hold this album in the very brightest of lights you can see surface marks on either side, there are NO SCRATCHES. In normal daylight this album looks PRISTINE. Both sides play without JUMPS or STICKING. I have played this album on my very sensitive and revealing LINN SONDEK and the sound is UN-WORN, it is full and crisp there is NO loss of sound quality at all, wonderful sound stage and stereo separation. There are dust crackles and a professional clean will sort out most of that, This really is a great copy that any collector would be delighted to add to their collection, a real KEEPER . EX-/EX-.
A RARE ALBUM AND BRILLIANT MUSIC.
