VALENTYNE SUITE

THIS IS THE FIRST ALBUM MADE ON THE FAMOUS VERTIGO SWIRL LABEL, AND WHAT MAKES IT MORE COLLECTABLE IS THAT IS THE EARLIEST PRESS WITH 'A PHILIPS RECORDS PRODUCT' ON THE LABEL AND THE COVER, AND ALSO HAS FANTASTIC AUDIO !!! THIS IS A PROG JAZZ ROCK FUSION MONSTER FROM MY OWN PERSONAL COLLECTION, AND THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THIS EARLIEST PRESS AND LATER ONES, IS THE BRILLIANT DEEP AND CRISP AUDIO !!!

THIS IS AN ORIGINAL 1969 UK 1ST PRESS :: 1Y * 1  ::  2*Y *1 .

EARLY STAMPERS :: 1  1  ::  1 1  1 0 .

ON THE LARGE VERTIGO SWIRL LABEL :: VO 1  847 900 VTY .

I HAVE BEEN HAVING PROBLEMS WITH VISIBILITY ON MY OTHER LISTINGS. IF YOU CAN NOT SEE ANY MORE LISTINGS, PLEASE GO ON   www.ebay.co.uk. 

THANK YOU !!!

COVER :: ORIGINAL 1ST PRESS COVER AND NOT THE LATER ONE, AS THIS HAS 'A PHILIPS RECORDS PRODUCT' PRINTED INSIDE THE GATEFOLD ( PLEASE SEE PHOTO ) :: THE SPINE IS SOLID AND FULLY READABLE WITH SOME TINY BITS OF LIGHT RUB ( PLEASE SEE PHOTO ) THE TOP EDGES ARE SOLID AND HAVE SOME LIGHT SHELF WEAR ALONG ONE EDGE ONLY. THE BOTTOM EDGES ARE ALSO SOLID WITH THE VERY FAINTEST OF LIGHT RUB ( PLEASE SEE PHOTO ) :: THE FRONT IS IN GREAT CONDITION, AND THE OPENING EDGE IS STILL SHARP :: THE BACK IS ALSO IN GREAT CONDITION, BUT HAS TWO SMALL BITS OF PAPER LOSS ( PLEASE SEE PHOTO ) :: INSIDE THE GATEFOLD WITH 'A PHILIPS RECORDS PRODUCT' PRINTED BOTTOM RIGHT CORNER THERE ARE NO PROBLEMS, AND WITH NO OTHER ISSUES, I WOULD GRADE :: EX/EX- . WOULD HAVE BEEN AN EASY EX WITHOUT THE TINY BIT OF PAPER LOSS !!  

VINYL :: PLAYS SUPERB, AND THERE IS SUCH A DIFFERENCE FROM THIS EARLY PHILIPS PRESS TO THE LATER PRESSES!!! ALL I HEARD WAS TWO SOFT TICKS AT THE END OF TRACK 2 :: WHILE ON SIDE 2 THERE ARE ONLY FOUR LIGHT TICKS AT THE VERY END...AND THAT IS ALL !!!! I COULD GO ON ALL WEEK HOW BRILLIANT THE AUDIO IS, BUT I THINK YOU CAN WORK IT OUT THAT THIS PLAYS SUPERB !!! VISUALLY, SUPERB AS WELL AND STILL RETAINS ITS ORIGINAL SHINE, AND YOU HAVE TO HOLD IT UNDER BRIGHT LIGHT TO SEE ONLY A COUPLE OF FAINT COSMETIC SLEEVE REMOVAL ULTRA FINE LINES AND ONE OR TWO TINY COSMETIC HAIRLINES. YOU WILL LOVE THE AUDIO WHICH I WOULD GRADE :: EX+/NEAR MINT . THIS IS NOT OVERGRADEED JUST A WELL LOOKED AFTER VINYL !!

LABELS :: LOVELY AND CLEAN :: EX/EX+ . 

ORIGINAL SWIRL POLYLINED INNER :: NO WRITING OR SPLITS, AND JUST A BIT OF LIGHT AGEING AROUND THE EDGES :: EX/EX- . THE VINYL WILL COME IN A NEW INNER TO PROTECT THE ORIGINAL !!!

AS YOU CAN SEE A VERY WELL LOOKED AFTER AND BRILLIANT ALBUM, AND IN TOP ALL ROUND CONDITION !!!!!  THESE DO NOT TURN UP IN THIS CONDITION VERY OFTEN, SO YOU WILL KICK YOURSELF IF YOU MISS THE END OF THIS AUCTION !!! THANKYOU AS ALWAYS FOR YOUR TIME.
