((((((((INCREDIBLE STRING BAND))))))))
THE 5000 SPIRITS OR THE
LAYERS OF THE ONION
MONO
THIS IS AN ORIGINAL 1967 UK 1ST PRESS :: A2 :: B2 .
ON THE ORANGE TEXTURED ELEKTRA LABEL :: EUK-257.
COVER :: ORIGINAL AND WHAT A BEAUTIFUL ONE IT IS !!! THE SPINE AND EDGES ARE SOLID BUT ALL HAVE MODERATE SHELF WEAR THE FULL LENGTH WITH OPENING EDGE STILL SHARP :: STILL RETAINS ALL THE SUPERB COLOURS AND HAS NOT FADED LIKE A LOT OF THESE COVERS SUFFER FROM. THERE ARE SOME SMALL CREASE LINES AROUND THE EDGES AND A SMALL CREASE LINE IN BOTTOM RIGHT CORNER :: THE BACK HAS A SMALL NAME TOP RIGHT CORNER AND A TINY BIT OF PAPER LOSS NEAR THE NAME. THERE IS ALSO 'EUK-257' WRITTEN TINY BOTTOM LEFT CORNER ( PLEASE SEE PHOTO ) THERE ARE NO OTHER ISSUES AND I WOULD GRADE :: VG .
VINYL :: NOT THE PRETTIEST UNDER BRIGHT LIGHT AS THERE ARE LOTS OF SLEEVE REMOVAL SPIDER WEB THREAD ULTRA FINE LINES AND QUITE A FEW FINE HAIRLINES, AND ALSO TWO SMALL FEELABLE NEEDLE LINES AT THE END OF TRACK 1 ON SIDE 1, AND ANOTHER IN THE MIDDLE OF TRACK 2 ON SIDE 2 WHICH I WILL EXPLAIN BELOW>>>>>>>>>>>
SIDE 1 :: TRACK 1 WITH THOSE TWO SMALL NEEDLE LINES AT THE END HAS A TINY SKIP, WHICH SOUNDS MORE LIKE A SOFT POP, THEN THERE ARE A COUPLE OF SOFT TICKS, AND THEN ANOTHER TINY SKIP. IT IS ON TRACK 1 SO QUICKLY FORGOTTEN !!! THE REST OF THE TRACKS PLAY FINE AND THERE ARE ONLY A COUPLE OF FAINT TICKS IN THE MIDDLE OF TRACK 4 WHICH ARE NOT INTRUSIVE AT ALL.
SIDE 2 :: HAS SEVEN SOFT TICKS IN THE MIDDLE OF TRACK 2 CAUSED BY THE OTHER NEEDLE LINE. ALL THE OTHER TRACKS PLAY FINE WITH ONLY TWO SOFT TICKS TOWARDS THE END OF TRACK 3. THIS IS A HARD ONE TO AUDIO GRADE AS THE TWO TINY SKIPS WILL OBVIOUSLY BRING THE AUDIO GRADE DOWN, SO I WILL GRADE WITHOUT THE SKIPS FIRST, SO PLEASE READ THE AUDIO GRADE CAREFULLY, THANKYOU. VISUALLY I WOULD GRADE AS VG .
AUDIO GRADE WITHOUT THE TWO SKIPS :: VG+/EX- .
BUT WITH THE TWO TINY SKIPS THE GRADE WILL BE LOWER...PLEASE REMEMBER THIS IF YOU DECIDE TO BID !!!
LABELS :: NICE AND CLEAN BUT THERE SOME SPINDLE LINES AT THE CENTRE SEEN WHEN ANGLED AT LIGHT :: EX- .
POLYLINED INNER :: NO WRITING OR SPLITS, BUT NOT THE ORIGINAL :: EX+ .
WELL IT IS A SHAME ABOUT THOSE TINY SKIPS AS THE REST OF THE VINYL PLAYS REALLY WELL WITH NO REAL PROBLEMS. UNDER BRIGHT LIGHT THERE ARE LOTS OF COSMETIC HAIRLINES AND OF COURSE THOSE THREE FEELABLE SMALL NEEDLE LINES, BUT IF YOU ARE OK WITH THOSE TINY SKIPS, THEN YOU ARE GOING TO GET A VERY RARE ALBUM, WITH THAT ICONIC COVER WITH VERY NICE AND ENJOYABLE AUDIO !!! THE COVER IS STILL PRESENTABLE, AND ALTHOUGH NOT A MUSEUM COPY, IT IS STILL A VERY COLLECTABLE ALBUM IN ANY CONDITION !!! THANKYOU AS ALWAYS FOR YOUR TIME.
