Description

An original 1st press of QUAD on the UK Track label from 1973. Matrix A2/B2/A1/B2 [including V420 on each side]. Please note true 1st press labels are easy to identify - they must be matt and flat..not ridged! The real 1st press are heavy set and sound significantly better than later copies. The heavy-set vinyl comes housed in an original soft-card gatefold cover with inner booklet. Also included are both original inner sleeves. So, 100% genuine and 100% complete.
Vinyl (Ex+/Ex+) In lovely condition and has only seen very light use. Under close inspection we could only make out a couple of light marks per side - nothing remotely troublesome. A thorough testing from beginning to end reveals an EXCELLENT+ level of playback. Intros and inbetweens are pretty much silent and the audio comes across with perfect clarity. Beautiful quality audio as is only delivered from these true early copies. Interference is pretty much entirely absent. Even in the quieter sections just pure audio. Expect nothing more than a couple of crackles in a couple of isolated moments per disc. These 1st pressings deliver the sound with authority and precision. Don't short change yourself...buy the best!
Cover (Vg+) These soft-card 1st issue covers are an absolute nightmare to find in top-level condition due to the way they were manufactured. This example, thankfully, has survived the years much better than most. Front and rear are well preserved with only a little of the handling wear you typically find. The rear look very nice indeed - no issues at all. Edge wear is reasonably light and the spine looks well preserved with all text still legible - better than what usually surfaces. The interior looks very nice and clean with barely any signs of ageing. The heavy booklet, as is very very common, has detached from the main body of the cover in one complete section. The booklet pages are all intact and in superb condition - no signs of being heavily thumbed. Very impressive and a really solid example of this classic.
Inners (Ex-) No splits a little ageing.
