The Cat.
No is SF 8031 on the ORIGINAL 1st Press RCA label see
picture and is a UK Stereo 1st Pressing there were NO Monos
The record labels are in SUPERB condition see pictures with NO
wear apart from a TINY touched in trace around 1 centre hole , NO writing, and
only a few light spindle marks The vinyl is in GREAT condition
Most of these 60s/70s LPs had been to a lot of wild parties and are
usually found totally worn out, and almost unplayable.
This one is NOT
and has only 2 or 3 absolutely TINY surface marks, only 2 or 3 hairlines, NO scufflines, and only a VERY few
of the lightest paper scuffs only visible under light There is also some very VERY faint bag sweat traces - though these are ONLY visible under the VERY brightest of lights THE RECORD
STILL RETAINS ITS ORIGINAL JUST PRESSED LOOK It is also great to
find that the record plays almost as STUNNINGLY as the visual with NO skips, only a VERY few VERY light clicks, NO sticking, NO jumps, and barely ANY
crackle AT ALL The sound quality is simply SUPERB with NO
distortion and NO groovewear either However, as most prog/psych
collectors will already know, RCA never gave any promotion or time to
this LP probably because they rated the bands chances of success as
zero - and as with ALL 1st Pressings of this LP as is well
documented , the record was never pressed on the highest quality of
vinyl, and so this record does have some audible background sound in
places as almost every 1st Pressing does .
However, this is lost WAY
behind all but the VERY quietest parts of the music ONLY of which there
is barely ANY - and as 99 of this record is VERY loud, it plays VERY
well indeed and is a GREAT listen I played it end to end just
now The record must grade Very Good PROPERLY graded, NOT trashed if not better Believe
me this record is NOT overgraded in ANY way I use STRICT RC grading
standards - it is not in my interest not to Brillant The
record also comes in its ORIGINAL 1st Press inner sleeve which is in
BRILLIANT condition The 1st Press Laminated Cover is in GREAT condition - and is a very VERY decent cover indeed, with NO major defects AT ALL It has NO edge wear, NO spinal wear apart from a few TINY creases , only VERY slight corner
wear, NO splits, only a few VERY light creases cover is VERY flat looking
indeed , NO yellowing, only a VERY thin line of laminate lifting/wrinkling along the spinal edge, NO rips, NO tears, shiny laminate, and NO writing The opening
edge is beautifully straight with barely ANY feathering AT ALL Even the
unlaminated back of the cover is in GREAT condition with NO
yellowing, only 1 very VERY hard to spot TINY wear trace on the white part at the VERY bottom, NO grubbyness, NO ringwear, only VERY slight rubbing, and NO writing
The cover must MEGA STRICTLY grade Very Good PROPERLY graded, NOT trashed if not better - and is still a very VERY decent cover indeed, with absolutely NO major defects AT ALL THIS LP IS
SERIOUSLY RARE AND VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO LOCATE - SO DONT MISS OUT ON
THIS INCREDIBLE OPPORTUNITY
