Confirms THE EARLIEST UK press of this magnificent rock classic.

 

IMPOSSIBLE TO locate in this fantastic condition..

 

 

Soft textured sapphire blue Reaction labels in excellent condition. NO peeling. NO mottling. NO damage of any kind. Beautiful with just a light spindle trace. Labels appear stunning against the highly polished, jet black  surfaces of the vinyls.

 

Vinyl

Magnificent heavyweight press with glass-like surfaces. Surfaces reflect a blinding sheen similar to mint vinyl! Some hairlines visible but does nothing to detract from the beauty of this record. A sheer visual delight. Awesome!

 

Audio

Near perfect….. Out of this world aural delivery, the mono perspective delivering with a pin point accuracy through very clear channels. Near silent grooves for the most part even between the tracks… From the start, Run Run Run, propels you into a frenzied rock ballad with excellent audio channels, where there is very little surface disturbance, if any! Amazing tones. Gets even better with Boris the Spider as the iron grating sounds resonate superbly well through these distinctive wider channels that only these very first UK presses can convey ! Perhaps a hint of static very occasionally, but truth be known, I am unable to fault this audio very much at all... Its sensational...The bass tones are absolutely incredible, NO hisses. NO pops ! No scratches! Almost impossible to find in this condition. A real beauty..excellent++  aural delivery and even better in many parts..

 

Album sleeve

E J day printed VERY first issue with a perfect clipped spine, clearly showing title. Beautifully laminated front cover. Mono single sleeve with only one laminate lift on reverse spinal edge and only one significant crease, mainly detected on reverse face. NO edge wear prevalent !!! Aldridge cover design is superb projecting vivid coloration, unfaded with very strong psychedelic images- A W E S O M E !!! Hard to find in this truly excellent format.  Minimal feathering to opening edge and a vision spectacular. Corners slightly showing their grey tips but so , so close to being undamaged.

 

Presented with original patented inner plain white sleeve.

 

And to make this offer the deal of the century, an exclusive wonderful collage of black and white press cuttings/photos from yonks ago. Carefully folded neatly away for decades and now see the daylight for the first time. The Who in their heyday-exclusive interviews, inside stories…what an offer ! Will delight all Who fans worldwide…

 

A beautifully presented rock classic with possibly the best aural delivery ever heard from this monumental WHO release !

 

Absolutely stunning.
