The vinyl.

Original heavy thicker and deeper grooved type of vinyl only seen on these very early pressings!!!!!!!

Very soon were changed to flimsier and less robust type of vinyls!!!!!!

The vinyl is absolutely superb on initial visual inspection this looks superb and still retains its sheen from new!!!!!!GRADED EX+/NMINT- 

The Audio Quality

This vinyl as played and listened to very carefully track for track at least three times prior to listing and as played at very loud volume!

  We have tried to accurately give an honest acount on the audio quality as heard!

 The first thing that hits you when the needle is put on the vinyl is the absolute clarity and vibrancy real raunchy deep bassy feel on this pressing, Truly stunning audio!

Important to note that there are no loud clicks or pops at all! 

 (Please note this vinyl has (not) been over played !!!!

(This audio sounds truly awesome throughout) 

 There no signs of grooveware or distortion during the audio play of this vinyl!!!! 

 Have played this through track for track and the audio quality is superb-

 Crystal clear & extremely vibrant!!!!

(In strong light only, any marks that could possibly be seen would be light wispy sleeve removal and we mean the lightest of marks (no) audio sounding marks or needle scratches that would produce any loud clicks or pops. The audio on this pressing in our opinion is almost as good as it gets for the most part for a top FIRST OF A FIRST pressing!!!!!)

THERE IS A PAPERMARK/HAIRLINE ON SIDE ONE

THAT DOES NOT AFFECT PLAY IN ANY WAY WHATDOEVER!!!!

Even in between tracks and quiet places there is extremely minimal noise, no surface noise just the very light static crackle intermitantly only on quiet places.!!!

Please note! It is easy to be critical about these 60s pressings! Please allow for very light static crackle\tick during quiet places!

 This is one of the best audio that we have heard of this pressing!!!!!

 We would class ourseleves as highly critical and this is a truly exceptional sounding vinyl and this awesome singer ''JANIS IAN''!!!Audio is graded as excellent plus/nm very near perfect for the most part on our system!!!!!

These songs were the anthems of late teens. Janis Ian captured (better than any other artist we are aware of) the awkwardness, the waywardness and the isolation of mid-teen existence. She was also an incedible chronicler of the social changes that came about in the mid to late 60's. "Society's Child" had every bit as big an impact as the book and movie, "Black Like Me." For anyone who has experienced or is experiencing the pangs of growing up and of coming to terms with his/her burgeoning identity, we would wholeheartedly recommend this collection. The Verve years were her most productive. She was 14 when she signed with the label and she was in every sense of the word, a prodigy. We don't know if we could have gotten through some of the darker periods of our teenage years without her! Thank you wherever you might be now, Janis. You touched our souls with yours. Your lyrics kept us sane. Your music left an indelible impression on our hearts. As far as folk artists of the period are concerned, she is in the front ranks with Ritchie Havens, Tim Buckley, Phil Ochs and Tim Hardin.

Please note!

That we always make this disclaimer!

 That although we never heard any clicks or pops during the play of the audio, This has been played and  this is a genuine 42 year old vinyl that would have been played on a 42 year old system!!!!

Important note!

and will enhance the audio quality!!!!!!!!!!!!!
