Welcome to another Oakley Boys auction of the weird and the wonderful, the classic and the rare. You lucky people are now in for a treat as hard times and a lack of a job are forcing me to sell some of my beloved record collection!
NO RESERVE!!!!!!!!
This auction is for a British copy of the album 'There's A Bond Between us' by the Graham Bond Organization released in 1965 on the Columbia label 33SX 1750. It will be noticed that the record label states also 33SX showing it to be a first pressing. This is the second album released by the group and features several musician showpiece tracks with the inevitable drum solo by Ginger Baker. It was Ginger who actually designed this cover as well. Please note that it is obviously NOT mint so please do not expect a mint copy! it is however a rare album and this one can fill a space until a mint one comes along
The (laminated front) cover is intact with some edge and corner wear and some browning on the back cover with one prominent brown mark. There is no writing and no stickers. There are wrinkles in the laminate.
I'm not sure if it is the correct inner sleeve for the album but nevertheless it has several creases and a split on one side.
The record labels are clear of writing and stickers but display several spindle marks. The area around the hole show some signs of having been played quite a few times ( as it should!).
The most imortant part now- the vinyl. There are lots of light surface marks which cause clicking and distortion on some tracks most noticably on the last track on side one- Baby Can It Be True? I did not hear any jumps nor did the stylus stick at any point. I suppose it is possible to remove some of the noise with a Moth or similar cleaning tool but I am guessing. My deck is a Technics btw in case you wondered how I rated the record. For the 'stamp collectors' of you the matrix numbers are:-
side one-XAX 2950-1 'U'? or 'W'? ( cannot tell) at 3 o'clock
side two-XAX 2951-1 'A' at 3 o'clock
Now for the boring bits--UK postage as stated. IF IT GOES FOR OVER £50 ( which of course I am hoping for!) THEN YOU WILL ALSO HAVE TO PAY FOR SOME SORT OF INSURANCE EITHER RECORDED OR REGISTERED. For the REST of the world postage is going to be more and I will ONLY send 'signed-for'. If bidding from outside the UK then please check on postage costs BEFORE bidding. I will ONLY accept Paypal from outside of the UK.
Please bid with confidence as I have a 100% positive feedback rating of OVER 770.
