Description
EXTREMELY RARE DAVID BOWIE ALBUM FROM 1969 RELEASED ON U.K. PHILIPS SBL. 7912
MATTRIX NO 852146 BY
THIS IS THE ORIGINAL ALBUM FEATURING THE HIT SINGLE SPACE ODDITY THAT WAS LATER RELEASED ON RCA AS SPACE ODDITY.
THIS HAS THE ORIGINAL LONGER VERSION OF UNWASHED AND SOMEWHAT SLIGHTLY DAZED THAT HAS A TOTALLY DIFFERENT ENDING TO THE LATER RE-RELEASE.
THIS ALBUM IS CURRENTLY VALUED IN THE LATEST RECORD COLLECTOR MAGAZINE AT £400 AND IS IN THEIR LIST OF THE RAREST 200 U.K. ALBUMS OF ALL TIME.
THE CONDITION OF THE RECORD IN ALL HONESTY IS THAT IT HAS BEEN HEAVILY USED OVER THE YEARS AND AT BEST CAN BE DESCRIBED AS FAIR TO GOOD CONDITION, THEIR ARE VERY LIGHT SCRATCH MARKS ALL OVER THE RECORD, SO IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR AN EXCELLENT TO MINT CONDITION COPY PLEASE LOOK ELSEWHERE.
THE GOOD NEWS IS THAT I HAVE PLAYED IT ON A TOP OF THE RANGE ROKSAN HI-FI DECK AND THE OVERALL SOUND QUALITY IS SUPRISINGLY VERY GOOD, THEIR IS THE OCCASIONAL CRACKLE ON THE QUITER TRACKS BUT IN MANY WAYS THE RECORD SOUNDS GREAT, IT DOES NOT SKIP OR JUMP AT ALL.
THE GATEFOLD RECORD SLEEVE INSIDE AND OUT IS ALSO IN VERY GOOD CONDITION ALTHOUGH THEIR IS OVERALL SIGNS OF SPINE WEAR.
INSIDE THE GATEFOLD SLEEVE IS VERY GOOD WITH NO WRITING OR MARKS ON THE LYRICS.
THE CLASSIC FRONT COVER WAS INSPIRED BY THE GREAT POP-ART ARTIST VICTOR VASARELY AND IS A FANTASTIC PERIOD PIECE
I AM CONFIDENT THAT WHOEVER WINS THIS WILL BE MORE THAN HAPPY AS THE ITEM HAS BEEN REALISTICALLY AND HONESTLY DESCRIBED, IF FOR ANY REASON THAT SHOULD NOT BE THE CASE I WILL GLADLY REFUND THE PRICE OF THE RECORD BUT NOT POSTAGE CHARGES.
