Fever Tree (Debut Album) Vintage Vinyl, UNI Records (1968) Un-Played, 1st Press

$

50

Selected titles from the private collection of a music business veteran are now being made available for the first time. Titles offered by this Seller are one-owner and came directly from the pressing plant, record company warehouse, other label reps or record store unless otherwise noted. 

 

Grading is based on visual inspection.

 

Album ships in a 2 MIL poly cover sleeve.

 

I package records outside the cover to avoid seam splits.

 

New and vintage vinyl is hard to grade strictly using eBay’s system because the record and the cover are two different components. Therefore, I call a record new and mint if it is opened but has never been played.  I use the grading category to describe the cover condition.

• Here's a great album by Fever Tree, a band that a lot of people may have never heard of. You also have to be a child of the sixties to remember it, assuming you still have a memory.
• Trivia alert and acid flashback! The Seller saw Fever Tree in July or August 1968 at the Denver University football stadium. They were the opening act on a bill that featured Alice Cooper and Steppenwolf.
• This is Fever Tree's debut album.
  
• This copy is a first pressing on thick vinyl and it has never been played.
• The paper-on-board cover has tight seams and shows slight edge and corner storage wear.
• The original inner sleeve includes bios, 
• This is one-owner that the Seller got new in his record store in 1968 (he wore out a couple previous copies and put this one in storage for posterity).
• It has been in storage for 50 years.
