Description
On offer here is a VERY rare LP (especially in this condition!!!!) by David Bowie called "Diamond Dogs"
This is an ORIGINAL 1974 UK 1st Pressing on the 1st Press RCA label!!!!
THIS LP IS SERIOUSLY RARE AND VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND ESPECIALLY IN THIS SUPERB CONDITION !!!!!!
THIS IS ONE OF DAVID BOWIE'S RAREST LPs EVER (AS A 1ST PRESSING!) - AND VIRTUALLY NEVER TURNS UP FOR SALE
IN 1974 WHEN THIS WAS FIRST RELEASED - IT ONLY EVER SOLD IN ABSOLUTELY TINY AMOUNTS (AS A 1ST PRESSING!), AND WAS ALMOST IMMEDIATELY CHANGED,
THEREFORE: IT IS SERIOUSLY RARE -THIS LP IS MADE EVEN RARER STILL, AS IT IS THE 'EARLIEST' 1ST PRESSING EVER MADE - WITH A1(oly)/B1(oly) MATRIXES (LATER ONES DONT!),
AND A 'MATT' GATEFOLD COVER ALL LATER ONES DONT HAVE THIS
THIS IS THE STANDARD 1ST PRESSING AND HAS:-
1) 1ST PRESS A1(oly)/B1(oly) MATRIXES
2) A COVER THAT HAS A 'FOLD-OVER FACTORY SEAL' AT THE NON-OPENING GATEFOLD END.
3) THE LABELS LIST THE TRACK 'BEWITCHED' ON THE SIDE 1 LABEL AFTER 'FUTURE LEGEND'. BUT NOT ON THE SLEEVE
4) THE COVER HAS NO MANUFACTURERS CREDIT UNDER THE UK ADDRESS ON THE COVER (SEE PICTURE)
NOT ONLY THAT, BUT THIS LP IN ABSOLUTELY STUNNING CONDITION - AND HAS BEEN PLAYED ONLY ONCE TO RECORD ONTO CASSETTE WHEN I PURCHASED THIS IN 1974 THEN STORED SAFELY IN A PLASTIC CONER EVER SINCE
TAKE A LOOK AT THE PICTURES AND ZOOM IN
THIS IS THE ORIGINAL 1974 UK 'EARLIEST' 1ST PRESSING ON THE 'EARLIEST' 1ST PRESS RCA LABEL, 'EARLIEST' 1ST PRESS A1/B1
The record is pressed on THICK quality vinyl. The Cat. No is APL1 0576 on the ORIGINAL 1st Press RCA label (see picture) and is a UK Stereo 1st Pressing (there were NO Monos!)!!!!
The sleeve has one blemish on gatefold corner as shown in picture 6 otherwise immaculate
The record labels are in SUPERB condition (see pictures) with NO wear, NO writing, and barely ANY spindle marks AT ALL!!!! IT IS VERY CLEAR THAT THIS RECORD HAS BARELY BEEN PLAYED AT ALL!!!! The vinyl is in SUPERB 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 NO scratches, NO hairlines, NO scufflines, only 2 or 3 absolutely ULTRA light 'bag sweat' traces, and only a VERY few of the lightest paper scuffs only visible under light!!!! ITS AS SIMPLE AS THAT!!!! THE RECORD STILL RETAINS ITS ORIGINAL 'JUST PRESSED' LOOK AND LOOKS
