THIS LP IS SERIOUSLY RARE AND SIMPLY IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND!!!! THIS IS ONE OF JONI MITCHELL'S RAREST LPs EVER - AND VIRTUALLY NEVER TURNS UP FOR SALE!!!! JUST TRY AND FIND ANOTHER ONE!!!! BACK IN 1970 WHEN THIS LP WAS FIRST RELEASED, IT ONLY EVER SOLD IN ABSOLUTELY TINY AMOUNTS AS A 1ST PRESSING!!!! AS A RESULT IT IS SERIOUSLY RARE AND INCREDIBLY HARD TO LOCATE!!!! BUT WHAT MAKES THIS LP REALLY SPECIAL IS THAT IT IS THE 'EARLIEST' 1ST PRESSING EVER MADE - WITH SOME INCREDIBLE DIFFERENCES THAT ALL LATER PRESSINGS SIMPLY DO NOT HAVE!!!!

THIS IS THE 'EARLIEST' 1ST PRESSING EVER MADE - AND IS SIMPLY IMPOSSIBLE TO LOCATE!!!! I WILL NOW EXPLAIN THESE INCREDIBLY IMPORTANT DETAILS THAT APPLY TO THIS 'EARLIEST' 1ST PRESSING ONLY!!!!
FIRSTLY THIS LP HAS THE 'EARLIEST POSSIBLE' RSLP '3-COLOUR' REPRISE LABELS (LATER ONES DONT!)!!!! SECONDLY AS WITH ALL 100% GENIUNE 'EARLIEST' REPRISE UK 1ST PRESSINGS - THE RECORD IS PRESSED BY PYE FOR REPRISE & ALSO HAS THE 'EARLIEST POSSIBLE' PYE RECORDS TEXT ON THE INSIDE OF THE COVER (SEE PICTURE) - WHICH LATER PRESSINGS SIMPLY DO NOT HAVE!!!! FOR THOSE WHO DONT ALREADY KNOW, PYE (UK) PRESSED ALL UK REPRISE RELEASES THROUGHOUT THE 1960s UP THE END OF 1969 (AND ALTHOUGH THIS LP WAS RELEASED IN EARLY 1970 - THIS LP WAS ACTUALLY PRESSED IN LATE 1969!) - BEFORE REPRISE STARTED THEIR OWN PRESSING PLANT (WITH DIFFERENT VINYL, MATRIXES & LABELS!)!!!! AND THIS LP IS SHOWN AS HAVING THE 'EARLIEST POSSIBLE' 1ST PRESS RECORD - AS IT HAS THE 'EARLIEST POSSIBLE' 1ST PRESS MATRIXES IN THE 'LARGE' PYE MATRIX STYLE (LATER PRESSINGS HAVE MUCH SMALLER MATRIXES!). THIRDLY EVERY SINGLE PART OF THIS LP (INCLUDING THE COVER, RECORD LABELS & MATRIXES!) HAVE THE CORRECT & EARLIEST POSSIBLE 'RSLP' 1ST PRESS CAT NUMBER (LATER ONES DONT!)!!!! AND LASTLY AND MOST IMPORTANTLY THIS LP HAS THE 'EARLIEST POSSIBLE' STYLE OF COVER EVER MADE!!!! THIS 'EARLIEST POSSIBLE' 1ST PRESS COVER WAS MADE BY 'GARROD & LOFTHOUSE', HAS 'PATENTS PENDING' TEXT ON THE INSIDE OF THE COVER (LATER ONES DONT!), AND HAS NO BOX AROUND THE 'PYE RECORDS' TEXT ON THE INSIDE OF THE COVER (LATER ONES DO!)!!!! THIS LP IS SIMPLY IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND AS A 100% COMPLETE 'EARLIEST POSSIBLE' 1ST PRESSING WITH ALL THESE INCREDIBLE DIFFERENCES LISTED ABOVE!!!!

The record labels are in AWESOME condition (see pictures) with NO wear, NO writing, and barely ANY spindle marks AT ALL!!!! IT IS VERY CLEAR THAT THIS RECORD HAS BARELY BEEN PLAYED AT ALL!!!! The vinyl is in absolutely BRILLIANT condition!!!! Most of these 60s LPs had been to a lot of wild parties and are usually found totally worn out, and almost unplayable. This one is NOT and has NO scratches, NO hairlines, NO scufflines, and only a VERY few of the lightest paper scuffs only visible under light!!!! ITS AS SIMPLE AS THAT!!!! THE RECORD STILL RETAINS ITS ORIGINAL 'JUST PRESSED' LOOK AND SHINES LIKE NEW!!!! It is also great to find that the record plays as STUNNINGLY as the visual (with only 1 very VERY minor exception!) with NO pops, NO sticking, NO jumps, barely ANY crackle AT ALL, and only some background sound on 1 set of run on grooves and the opening revolution (only 1 revolution ONLY!) of the 1st track on Side 2 ONLY (NONE elsewhere AT ALL!)!!!! The sound quality is simply SUPERB with NO distortion and NO groovewear either!!!! The record must grade Very Good++++ if not better!!!! Believe me this record is NOT overgraded in ANY way!!!! I use STRICT RC grading standards - it is not in my interest not to!!!! Brillant!!!! The record comes in its ORIGINAL 1st Press inner sleeve which is in SUPERB condition!!!! The 'Earliest' 1st Press 'Garrod & Lofthouse' Gatefold 'Patents Pending' Cover is in AWESOME condition!!!! It has NO edge wear, NO spinal wear, barely ANY corner wear AT ALL (NOT through the colour!), barely ANY creases AT ALL (cover is VERY flat looking indeed!), NO ringwear, NO rubbing, NO sticker tears, and NO writing!!!! BEST OF ALL - IS THAT THE COVER IS 100% WHITE, AND HAS NO GRUBBYNESS AT ALL!!!! The opening edges are beautifully straight with NO feathering!!!! Even the unlaminated inside of the cover is in AWESOME condition with NO grubbyness, NO yellowing, NO rubbing, NO ringwear, and NO writing!!!! The cover must grade Excellent++++ if not MINT(Minus)!!!! AWESOME COVER!!!! THIS LP IS SERIOUSLY RARE AND VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND LIKE THIS - SO DONT MISS OUT ON THIS ULTRA RARE OPPORTUNITY!!!!
