Description

On offer here is a VERY rare LP (especially in this condition!!!!) by Gong called "Camembert Electrique" and is an ORIGINAL 1971 French 1st Pressing on the 1st Press BYG label!!!!  THIS LP IS SERIOUSLY RARE AND VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND!!!!  THIS IS ONE OF GONG'S RAREST LPs EVER - AND VIRTUALLY NEVER TURNS UP FOR SALE!!!!  JUST TRY AND FIND ANOTHER ONE!!!!  BACK IN 1971 WHEN THIS LP WAS FIRST RELEASED - IT ONLY EVER SOLD IN ABSOLUTELY TINY AMOUNTS, AND WAS ALMOST IMMEDIATELY DELETED!!!!  AS A RESULT, IT IS SERIOUSLY RARE AND INCREDIBLY HARD TO LOCATE TODAY!!!!  NOT ONLY THAT BUT THIS LP IS 100% COMPLETE WITH ITS ORIGINAL 'TWO INSERTS' (USUALLY MISSING!)!!!! 

NOT ONLY THAT BUT THIS LP IS IN BRILLIANT CONDITION - AND HAS BARELY BEEN PLAYED AT ALL!!!!  JUST TAKE A LOOK AT THE PICTURES!!!!  THIS IS THE ORIGINAL 1971 FRENCH 1ST PRESSING ON THE 1ST PRESS BLACK BYG LABEL, 1ST PRESS INNER SLEEVE, 1ST PRESS INSERTS, AND 1ST PRESS GATEFOLD LAMINATED COVER!!!!  THIS LP IS SERIOUSLY RARE AND VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO LOCATE - SO DONT MISS OUT ON THIS AMAZING OPPORTUNITY!!!!  This is the ORIGINAL 1971 BYG French 1st Pressing, and is in BRILLIANT condition!!!! The Cat. No is BYG 529 353 on the ORIGINAL 1st Press BYG label (see picture) and is a Stereo 1st pressing (there were NO Monos!)!!!!  All the tracks are Pure quality Gong at their best!!!! Any fan of Gong, or 60s/70s music in general, will want to have this in their collection - especially in this condition!!!!

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 BRILLIANT 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, and only a VERY few of the lightest paper scuffs only visible under light!!!!  It also does have some EXTREMELY faint 'bag sweat' type traces under VERY bright light ONLY - which makes the vinyl look ever so slightly 'dull' when held under a light bulb.  THE RECORD STILL RETAINS ITS ORIGINAL 'JUST PRESSED' LOOK!!!!  It is also great to find that the playing of the record is as STUNNING as the visual!!!!  It plays with NO pops, NO jumps, NO sticks, barely ANY crackle AT ALL, and only some VERY slight background sound in places (though mostly NONE!) though this is lost WAY behind the music - and is probably from the 'bag sweat' traces mentioned above!!!!  The sound quality is simply SUPERB with NO distortion and NO groovewear either!!!!  The record must grade Very Good++++ if not better!!!!  BRILLIANT RECORD!!!!  Believe me this record is NOT overgraded in ANY way!!!! I use STRICT RC grading standards - it is not in my interest not to!!!! Brillant!!!! The record also comes in its ORIGINAL 1st Press inner sleeve which is in BRILLIANT condition!!!!  BOTH ULTRA RARE INSERTS ARE IN SUPERB CONDITION - AND DONT LOOK TO HAVE EVER LEFT THE COVER!!!!  The 1st Press Gatefold Laminated Cover is in BRILLIANT condition!!!! It has NO edge wear, NO spinal wear, only VERY slight corner wear (NOT through the colour!), only a VERY few light creases (cover is VERY flat looking!), shiny laminate, and NO writing!!!! The opening edge is beautifully straight with NO feathering!!!! Even the unlaminated inside of the cover is in SUPERB condition with NO grubbyness, NO yellowing, NO rubbing and NO writing!!!!  The cover must grade Very Good++++ if not better!!!!  BRILLIANT COVER!!!!  THIS LP IS SERIOUSLY RARE AND VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND LIKE THIS - SO  DONT MISS OUT ON THIS INCREDIBLE OPPORTUNITY!!!!
