DEEP PURPLE
MACHINE HEAD LP
STAMPED A-1U/B-1U GRAMOPHONE CO. LABELS LYRIC POSTER INSERT ON GLOSSY PAPER WITH CAT. NUMBER. LAMINATED GARROD & LOFTHOUSE GATEFOLD SLEEVE ORIGINAL INNER WITH PATENT NUMBERS 1125555 AND 1072844
VINYL
ABSOLUTELY SUPERB. STONE MINT PLAYBACK ON MY LINN. YOU'LL NEVER NEED TO UPGRADE THIS VINYL.
ORIGINAL HEAVYWEIGHT PRESSING, IT LOOKS AND SHINES PRETTY MUCH AS NEW. THERE'S SOME FEINT STORAGE MARKING ON THE RUN-IN GROOVES (BEFORE THE TRACK STARTS) ON SIDE ONE, BUT THAT'S SILENT TOO. THE PLAYBACK IS INCREDIBLE, WITH ABSOLUTELY NO BACKGROUND NOISE AT ALL. THE MASTERING OF THIS ALBUM IS FAMOUSLY GOOD, AND THIS COPY CAPTURES ALL OF THE POWER AND NUANCE OF THE ORIGINAL MASTER PERFECTLY. CERTAINLY THE BEST FIRST PRESS COPY THAT WE'VE EVER HAD, AND WE'VE SOLD A FEW..
PLAY GRADED ON A LINN SONDEK LP12 WITH ITTOK LV II ARM AND LINN KLYDE CARTRIDGE. ALL GRADING AS PER RRPG GUIDELINES. PLEASE SEE OUR 'GRADINGS EXPLAINED' SHOP PAGE FOR MORE INFO.
SLEEVENICE SOLID EX. FIRST PRESS FULLY LAMINATED GARROD AND LOFTHOUSE GATEFOLD SLEEVE IS IN LOVELY CONDITION WITH JUST SOME SMALL GENERAL STORAGE WEAR. MAIN POINTS TO NOTE ARE FOUR SMALL CREASES TO THE SPINE AND OPENING EDGE, WHERE THERE IS SOME SMALL RUBBING. THE SPINE ITSELF IS EXCELLENT WITH ALL WRITING CLEAR AND LEGIBLE. THE INSIDE OF THE GATEFOLD IS BEAUTIFUL, WITH VERY LITTLE WEAR AT ALL. THE ORIGINAL FIRST PRESS INSERT IS IN NICE EX CONDITION, AND THE ORIGINAL INNER, WITH ALL CORRECT PATENT NUMBERS, IS ALSO A SOLID EX WITH JUST A LITTLE STORAGE WEAR.
LABELS
BEAUTIFUL NR MINT. IF YOU LOOK HARD, THERE'S ABOUT 6 FEINT SPINDLE MARKS, WHICH WOULD BE THE TOTAL AMOUNT OF TIMES IT'S BEEN PLAYED. WHAT A COPY.

We have been buying and selling rare vinyl for over 30 years. We have large and eclectic vinyl-only stalls at many of the major UK record fairs, including Olympia and Westminster, where our reputation for selling records in excellent condition is well known. We specialise in all things Psych & Prog, although you'll find all genres in our ebay listings.
We sometimes put up rarer LP's on our Record Fair backdrop, so these may be removed from our ebay listings at any point over the weekend if they sell at the fair. You have been warned! :-)
We're very proud of our 100% feedback. If there's any kind of problem with the item, please contact us first to resolve before leaving feedback.
