Title : Time And A Word Label : Atlantic Cat No : 2400006

Matrix : 2400006 A//1 - B//2 Issue : UK 1st Complete Plum Press

This is the UK 1st press of ’Time And A Word' by Yes. This genuine early press is complete with the early A1//B2 matrix and heavy vinyl. The labels are plum and orange and have the 'Under Licence' text above the white strip. It also omits the Yessongs credit on the label, making it one of earliest presses. It is also has the original matt Atlantic Super sleeve and the rare original lyric insert.

The vinyl is in Excellent condition. It has a sensational mirrored gloss, every track looks absolutely sensational. The grooves show no sign of play at all, there are just a couple of the very faintest wispy marks. The original plum Atlantic label is bold and completely clean. The colour is solid and unworn, the text is exceptionally sharp and there is NO spindle wear. The record is complete with the original inner sleeve date stamped 0670, confirming this is the original inner sleeve released with this LP. It is in Excellent condition.

On playing the sound is superb; bold, vibrant and rich. Excellent clarity and audio separation throughout.

The original catalogue stamped original insert is in superb Near Mint condition.

The Atlantic Super matt sleeve is in Excellent condition. The image is bold and unworn, the text is sharp and the white is bright. There is just very light discoluration and the slightest edge wear. The whole sleeve is solid and the earliest pinched spine is firm with clear text.
