Description

On offer here is a VERY rare LP (especially in this condition!!!!) by Bob Dylan called "Highway 61 Revisited" and is an ORIGINAL 1965 UK STEREO 1st Pressing on the 1st Press 'Textured' Orange CBS label!!!! THIS LP IS SERIOUSLY RARE AND SIMPLY IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND!!!! THIS IS EASILY BOB DYLAN'S RAREST & MOST SOUGHT AFTER LPs EVER AND VIRTUALLY NEVER TURNS UP FOR SALE!!!! BUT WHAT MAKES THIS LP REALLY SPECIAL IS THAT IT IS 1ST PRESSED IN MEGA RARE STEREO - AND IS THE EARLIEST' UK STEREO 1ST PRESSING EVER MADE!!!!! AND THIS IS SIMPLY IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND ON THIS LP!!!! AND MAKE NO MISTAKE ABOUT THE HUGE RARITY OF THE LP I AM ABOUT TO DESCRIBE!!!! THIS ISNT SOME 'LATER STEREO PRESSING' (WHICH ARE VERY COMMON!) - THIS REALLY IS THE REAL THING!!!! THIS IS THE IMPOSSIBLY RARE UK STEREO 1ST PRESSING FROM THE 'DAY OF RELEASE' IN 1965 - AND HAS SOME AMAZING DETAILS THAT ALL LATER STEREO PRESSINGS SIMPLY DID NOT HAVE!!!! AND THIS IS TREMENDOUSLY IMPORTANT - AS BACK IN 1965 IN THE UK, DEMAND FOR STEREOs WAS ABSOLUTELY TINY!!!! MOST SHOPS DIDNT EVEN STOCK STEREO's AS STANDARD - AND THESE WERE ONLY EVER AVAILABLE BY 'SPECIAL ORDER' ONLY!!!! SO IT IS SO VERY IMPORTANT TO IDENTIFY A 'TRUE' UK STEREO 1ST PRESSING CORRECTLY - AS THEY ARE SO IMPOSSIBLY RARE!!!! I WILL NOW EXPLAIN IN GREAT DETAIL - WHAT MAKES THIS THE 'TRUE' UK STEREO 1ST PRESSING!!!! FIRSTLY, THE ORANGE LABELS ARE 'HEAVILY TEXTURED' (LATER ONES ARE SMOOTH!) AND CARRY THE ALL IMPORTANT '33' LABEL TEXT (THIS WAS LATER CHANGED TO 33 1/3 IN 1966!)!!!! SECONDLY THE MATRIX ENDINGS ARE 1A-1 & 1B-1, WHICH ARE THE 'EARLIEST' 1ST PRESS STEREO MATRIX ENDINGS, AND CHANGED ON ALL LATER PRESSINGS!!!! THIRDLY THE COVER HAS TWO LARGE 'STEREO' LOGOS PRINTED ON THE TOP MIDDLE OF THE COVER FRONT (UNDER THE LAMINATE!) AND ALSO TO THE TOP LEFT OF THE COVER BACK!!!! AGAIN - THIS ONLY EVER APPLIED TO UK STEREO 1ST PRESSINGS ONLY - WITH ALL LATER COVERS HAVING 'STEREO STICKERS' INSTEAD!!!! AND LASTLY - IN THE TOP RIGHT CORNER OF THE COVER BACK, IT HAS PRINTED 'STEREO SBPG 62572' - WHICH EVERY LATER PRESSING SIMPLY NEVER HAD!!!! SO THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NO DOUBT AT ALL, THAT WITH ALL THESE AMAZING 1ST PRESS ONLY DETAILS - THIS MAKES THIS THE RAREST & 'EARLIEST' 1ST PRESSING OF THIS LP EVER MADE, AND IT WILL SURELY BE A VERY VERY LONG TIME (IF EVER) BEFORE YOU GET THE CHANCE TO OWN ANOTHER ONE!!!! NOT ONLY THAT BUT THIS LP IS IN BRILLIANT CONDITION!!!! JUST TAKE A LOOK AT THE PICTURES!!!! THIS IS THE ORIGINAL 1965 UK 'TRUE' STEREO 1ST PRESSING ON THE 1ST PRESS 'TEXTURED' ORANGE CBS LABEL, 1ST PRESS '33' LABEL TEXT, 1ST PRESS 1/1 STEREO MATRIXES, 1ST PRESS INNER SLEEVE, AND 1ST PRESS 'GARROD & LOFTHOUSE' FLIPBACK LAMINATED 'PATENTS PENDING' STEREO COVER!!!! THIS LP IS SERIOUSLY RARE AND SIMPLY IMPOSSIBLE TO LOCATE - SO DONT MISS OUT ON THIS AMAZING OPPORTUNITY!!!! This is the ORIGINAL CBS UK 1st Pressing from 1965 and is in BRILLIANT condition!!!! The record is pressed on THICK quality vinyl. The Cat. No is SBPG 62572 on the ORIGINAL 1st Press 'Textured' Orange CBS label (see picture) and is a much MUCH rarer UK STEREO 1st Pressing!!!!

The record labels are in SUPERB condition (see pictures) with NO wear, NO writing, and only a few VERY light spindle marks!!!! The vinyl is in BRILLIANT condition!!!! Most of these 60s 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 NO scratches, only 2 or 3 visible (but NON sounding!) hairlines on 1 side ONLY, NO scufflines, and only a VERY few of the lightest paper scuffs only visible under light!!!! THE RECORD STILL RETAINS ITS ORIGINAL 'JUST PRESSED' LOOK AND SHINES LIKE NEW!!!! It is also great to find that the playing of the record is as STUNNING as the visual!!!! It plays with NO nasty loud pops, NO jumps, NO sticks, barely ANY crackle AT ALL, and only some VERY slight background sound on the run on grooves & gaps - NOT in the music AT ALL!!!! The sound quality is simply SUPERB with NO groovewear and NO distortion either!!!! The record must grade Very Good+ 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 'Garrod & Lofthouse' Flipback Laminated 'Patents Pending' STEREO Cover is in BRILLIANT condition!!!! It has NO edge wear, NO spinal wear, only VERY slight corner wear (NOT through the colour!), only a few VERY light creases (cover is VERY flat looking!), VERY shiny laminate, only 2 or 3 TINY and ULTRA faint stain traces on the opening edge, and NO writing!!!! The opening edge is beautifully straight with NO feathering!!!! Even the unlaminated back of the cover is in BRILLIANT condition with NO yellowing, NO grubbyness, NO ringwear, NO rubbing, and NO writing!!!! The cover must grade Very Good++ if not better!!!! THIS LP IS SERIOUSLY RARE AND SIMPLY IMPOSSIBLE TO LOCATE AS A 100% GENIUNE 1965 UK 'TRUE' STEREO 1ST PRESSING - SO DONT MISS OUT ON THIS ULTRA RARE OPPORTUNITY!!!!

HAVE A LOOK AT MY PICTURES - I DO MY BEST TO SHOW THE RECORD FROM ALL ANGLES AND MAKE THE PICTURES AS CLEAR AS POSSIBLE - THERE IS NOTHING TO HIDE!!!!
