Description
Artist: Chick Shannon/Last Exit
Title: Tears on the Console
Details: - This is part of my Personal Private Press Folk/Psych/Prog Collection which I have spent many years acquiring - all are Originals!! No reissues/Replicas etc, I acquired them many years ago and only purchased the genuine copies, most of them have a very limited pressing (being private pressings) and range from 99 copies to just a few hundred, You will not see some of these come up for sale again for a very long time, if at all!!!
On offer here is the Mega rare UK Album by "Chick Shannon/Last Exit" called "Tears on the Console" on `Holyground` label - Run out/Matrix side 1 HGS 120A / side 2 HGS 120 B2
Rarity:- MEGA RARE this is the original 1st UK release of the album on the incredibly rare and collectible Holyground label from 1975 (HGS 120). There were only ever 120 copies of this original album pressed. It also contains the ULTRA RARE booklet insert in lovely condition.
Music: In 1975 Mike Levon closed down Holyground but in the last few midsummer weeks he recorded Chick Shannon & Last Exit. The results, even on the first day, were magic - a lively set of songs driven by Steve Channing's vocals and skills on guitar, and backed by a tight and fluid group. The songs, often blues based, were lovely. The atmosphere was electric, and pushed along by the knowledge that Holyground was ending.
Label: Holyground
Catalogue No: HGS 120
Year: 1975
Country: UK
Vinyl: (EX++) `Thick` Vinyl - under Bright Halogen Spotlights I can only see the lightest of sleeve removal marks, just a couple non feelable hairlines - Great copy and comes with its Original 1975 white inner. Inserts: comes with `Mega Rare` booklet (see photos) It is obviously the original as these have been hand produced and have the original staples (turned rusty) in the very dated paper which still contains Mike Levon`s original address and phone number - a real treat! Sleeve: (VG) Original copy of this very thin sleeve, genuine Black & White image with spool overprinted in Blue, as the photos will show there is some damage to the front where it looks like somebody has removed a strip of tape, still rates as a valuable copy, with only 120 ever printed !!! (see photos for full overview) Labels: Clean White Labels - Just a few visible spindle line each side - This record has hardly been played! Post/Packing: UK - £5.50, Europe - £7.50, World £11.50 * buy multiple items and save on postageI use professionally made box packers (not thin mailers) with added card stiffeners & bubble wrap, I always remove the record from the album cover for storage and for packing!! I always send my records out this way so that they arrive with the customer as they left me, my postage charges reflect this care, please don't bid if you object to these.
I use lots of photos to show as accurately as possible what you are getting (also I don't cut the corners of the record sleeve off the picture!!)
Gradings: I use the standard UK gradings as set out in Record Collector Magazine below:
MINT: The record itself is in brand new condition with no surface marks or deterioration in sound quality. The cover and any extra items such as the lyric sheet, booklet or poster are in perfect condition. Records advertised as Sealed or Unplayed should be Mint.
EXCELLENT: The record shows some signs of having been played, but there is very little lessening in sound quality. The cover and packaging might have slight wear and/or creasing.
VERY GOOD: The record has obviously been played many times, but displays no major deterioration in sound quality, despite noticeable surface marks and the occasional light scratch. Normal wear and tear on the cover or extra items, without any major defects, is acceptable.
Near Mint, EX+, VG+ etc are acceptable additions to help `fine tune` descriptions for the buyer
