Description

Rare and sought after Transatlantic Records - 123 release by Ian Campbell & co .


Price permanent, no price drop or offers of any kind.


Record looks just like outta pressing plant , almost immaculate in any way ( it was played 2-3 times ) test played now and it plays great for record almost 60 years old , just tiny minor ticks ( stylus going over in bedded nano dust particles, record was played as it is without any cleaning at all - which I never do to preserve authenticity of it . So with some deep cleaning it could be almost perfect. For me as it is , it’s fantastic. As for sleeve … also in excellent, outstanding condition- please see photos . Dare to say probably best copy one can get as I list items that are checked, played and assessed not just have a look and bang, on that merit I’d be listing it as mint cos it looks like that !


Comes with brand new inner sleeve ( original ain’t worth bother , just pieces of yellow paper .)

The title of this L.P. is also the title of a collection of mining songs by A.L. Lloyd and we are indebted to him for permission to use this title. We are also indebted to him both for his considerable research into mining songs and for his constant help, encouragement, and constructive criticism in the past. Much of the material for this L.P. was drawn from his collection "Come All Ye Bold Miners"
