Description

JOHN MAYALL - Empty Rooms EX to EX+ autographed UK LP (signed insert) A1/B1     

These records are all from my personal collection built up over almost 50 years. Some were bought new, others pre-owned so condition will vary. Please do read and understand the detailed description which is my honest personal assessment - you can always check how good or bad that is by checking my feedback. My attempt at grading is based on the commonly used Record Collector grading system. Questions are welcome if anything is unclear. Happy bidding

Anyway, this listing is for a John Mayall signed copy of his 1971 album

John Mayall -
Empty Rooms
UK issue on Polydor label
1969
Cat Number: 583580   A//1 B//1 matrix
Mode: Stereo

The Album:
Great album from Mayall. A first A1/B1 pressing in superb condition. I saw this line-up in Plymouth back in 69/70 .. so different to earlier Bluesbreakers with Johnny Almond & John Mark playing sax flutes & acoustics, and no drummer or big-name lead guitar (Taylor having left for the Stones). Laid back blues from the master, who kindly signed the lyric insert.

Condition:
Cover:  MacNeill single unlaminated sleeve is in nice condition.  It is strong and intact with no tears, stickers or writing. There is minimal wear and the spine is  firm with perfectly legible text. Excellent. The lyric / discography insert is included - also in excellent condition, and signed by John Mayall
Labels: Bright, clean, no stickers or writing, very few spindle marks. Excellent.
Vinyl: Superb glossy vinyl. Just a very few of the customary and expected faint paper scrapes which cause no problem.It looks and plays excellently throughout.

Overall:
A really nice copy of this album with not many plays - I'd guess it would grade at (cover/vinyl) EX / EX

Terms:
Please note that I try to test-play at least part of each record before listing, but do not have time to play fully in all cases. I just played a lot of this one, but if you do discover a problem which I might have missed, please do not hesitate to contact me and I will do all I can to rectify the situation.

Postage: Within UK revised weight ranges usually allow up to three LPs to be posted for the same cost as one. For all other destinations costs are weight dependent, but incremental cost from additional LP's will normally cost less than the first. I am happy to hold records for a while if you wish to bid on more and combine shipment, but it helps if you can let me know particularly when bidding on items separated by a few days. Approximate prices for normal postage & packing -

UK £3.35 for up to 1kg (1,2 or 3 average weight LPs).

Europe £5.30 normal airmail, £10.60 signed-for. + £1.45 each additional,

Rest of world £7.55 normal airmail, £12.85 signed-for.  + £2.70 each additional item

These amounts include actual Royal Mail cost for first class or air mail, plus 35p for cost of packaging material (a brand new custom mailer with stiffener). The greedy snouts in the trough at Ebay now charge sellers 10% of postage costs for which there can be no justification - I refuse to pass this shameful levy on to buyers, so you only pay post and packing.

Apologies, but owing to unreliability of some postal services, I will not ship to Italy, Russian Federation, & other former Soviet countries unless a signed for service is selected and paid for.

Losses: Royal Mail have reduced maximum compensation to £20 unless items are signed-for. Compensation on signed-for shipments is up to £50. Overseas purchasers - if your purchase is well over £20, a signed for service must be selected when paying or shipping will be at your own risk, not mine, and normal airmail will only be covered for up to £20.

Payment by Sterling cheque / money order, or via Paypal

I have decided to sell my whole vinyl collection as I know it won't be appreciated by my daughter or grandchildren, so I'm shifting it myself and hope I find good homes for it. Listed items are selected at random so there should be a decent if not particularly logical mix coming up over the next few months if you keep an eye on my other items now and in the future.
Thank you to all who have already given new homes to my precious vinyl, and may you continue to enjoy these records for years to come.
