Description
The much sought after original first pressing of The Zombies' classic album ODESSEY & ORACLE (IN ULTRA RARE MONO)!
See below for details.
COUNTRY: UK
YEAR: 1968
LABEL: CBS
CATALOGUE NUMBER:
63280
GRADING
SLEEVE: EX-
Cover looks beautiful overall, very clean. Would be EX but has some creasing in the corners, very faint pencil writing of 646 on the front cover (which could probably be carefully erased using a rubber eraser as the cover is laminated), and a small tear in the middle of the back cover.
LABELS: EX
Labels are very clean as pictured, spindles still look great.
RECORD: EX-
Side 1 looks absolutely gorgeous, visually graded EX+/NM with just a couple faint paper withdrawal lines but no scratches etc. Plays like it too, I heard no noise or crackle on my play through! Immaculate audio!
Side 2 is clean but has a couple small hairlines. There was slight crackle in places on "Changes", around 5 seconds of pops on "I Want Her She Wants Me", some pops on "This Will Be Our Year" too. After that the rest of the album played to the end with no issues. I would grade Side 2 Ex- overall.
Original Inner: Beautiful condition original inner, EX+
Cleaning: All vinyl sold by me is carefully cared for and cleaned with one of the most effective processes in the field. Manually cleaned with a Disco Stat + Loricraft combination with a formulated distilled water and alcohol mixture, and a tergikleen + glycol surfactant. The process is then finished off with an Ultrasonic Degritter cleaning to blast out and rinse any other impurities that may still remain. This is one of the key factors into why the vinyl I sell on sounds so clean and lacks the surface noise you may get from a seller who doesn't go to the same lengths as this vinyl obssessed guy over here :)!
