Icehouse "Man of Colours" Vinyl LP
Cat #RML53239
Iva Davies' Multi-platinum selling No. 1 Charting, Aria Award winning BestAlbum and internationally acclaimed and succesful magnum opus - with a twist !
Originally a limited new release on Blue, Red, or Yellow vinyl separately, the artisans at Australian Distributor/factory (festival Records, Pyrmont NSW) also experimented with each of these three primary colours blended together when pressing the LP to create a psychedelic, swirled "lollipop effect.
The alchemy that eventuated the manufacturing process delivered patterns that all varied so like a fingerprint no two albums are the same, every pressing is UNIQUE a one off.
Never commercially released into the marketplace, only about 30 -odd multi-coloured LP's ever went into production before the concept was shelved by management and these completed albums all but disappeared for the next 25 years. Only a handful of people know these records exist and not even Wikipedia lists these very secret test pressings !
This makes these hard to find albums EXTRAORDINARILY RARE and EXTREMELY VALUABLE.
This particular auction item is pristene vinyl which has never been played and only taken out of it's dust cover once - for this photograph.
The original white cover and inner sleave are in good and excellent condition with no marks, tears or dog eared corners. Better than a mere limited edition,
This is a genuine UNIQUE EDITION
Twenty five years after it's original release in 1987, the value of this masterpeice will only increase as the years progress.. This record has sold millions internationally, so this extra special pressing will be sort by dedicated bidders globally.
Whether an Icehouse fan or not; Vinyl Fancier or not; this is one for the serious collector !
Please look at the photos as they form part of the description
Can be picked up from Stanmore NSW
