Description

Complete and original 1969 UK Stereo 1st Pressing of Joe Cocker's self titled debut album on Regal Zonophone.
Although this album was extremely popular in America it was not successful in the UK and did not sell many copies. 
As such, this UK 1st Press copy with the Red and Silver Regal Zonophone labels, Garrod & Lofthouse sleeve, 1U/1U matrix number and 1G / 1G mother stampers is very rare indeed!

Serial number: SLRZ. 1011
Matrix number: YCARX.61-1U /  YCARX.62-1U
Stamper codes: 1 G / 1 G
Vinyl Weight: 150g 

Condition:
Overall this copy is in fantastic condition. Very rarely do you find 53 year old records looking and sounding this good!
Vinyl: NEAR MINT
Visually the vinyl is glossy and clean. No scratches, scuffs or marks can be seen. The labels are without writing and have minimal spindle wear. NEAR MINT. The audio is fantastic! There are quiet lead-ins to both sides and it is silent in between tracks. There are no pops, skips or jumps. A fantastic listening experience. NEAR MINT.
Sleeve: EXCELLENT 
The sleeve looks great. Both sides retain a glossy finish with bright colours. There is no sign of ring wear, fully readable spine without wear, top and bottom edge without wear, and corners with just mild wear. 
Inner Sleeve: EXCELLENT
The original white patents pending inner sleeve is in fantastic condition. It is without staining or discolouration. Graded as EXCELLENT rather than near mint due to very subtle ring wear that is unavoidable if the sleeve is ever used. Also included in the sale is an audiophile quality, anti-static inner sleeve to help protect and preserve the fantastic record. 


This record will be sent via an insured courier in a padded vinyl mailer.
