ATTENTION KING CRIMSON,PINK ISLAND LABEL AND 1970s PROGRESSIVE ROCK ALBUM COLLECTORS! HERE IS AN ORIGINAL 1970 1ST ISSUE OF THE SECOND KING CRIMSON ALBUM "IN THE WAKE OF POSEIDON". ILPS 9127 WITH THE EARLIEST POSSIBLE A//1+B//1 MATRIXES. THIS IS A FIRST PRESSING WITH THE PINK ISLAND +THE WHITE "i" LOGO LABELS. PLEASE NOTE THIS LP IS NOT UP TO MY USUAL HIGH STANDARD AND HAS HAD A LOT OF USE WITH MANY SURFACE MARKS AND SEVERAL CLICKS-ALL DESCRIBED IN A LIST FURTHER DOWN SO PLEASE READ VERY CAREFULLY BEFORE DECIDING TO BID!
THIS SHOULD BE REGARDED AS A "GAPFILLER" COPY UNTIL A BETTER ONE COMES ALONG BUT STILL PLAYS WELL DUE TO ISLAND'S BRILLIANT LOUD,DEEP CUT MASTERING, THIS IS A NICE SOUNDING COPY WITH CLEAR SOUND WITH NO JUMPS,STICKS OR LOUD SWISHES! VISUALLY STRICTLY GRADED AS GOOD CONDITION AND IDEAL IF YOU DO NOT WANT TO PAY THE SKY HIGH PRICES FOR A HIGHER GRADE CONDITION COPY BUT THIS IS NOT A TOTALLY TRASHED AND THRASHED EXAMPLE UNLIKE THE MAJORITY THAT SURVIVE AND MOST OF THE DISC SOUNDS REALLY NICE-INFACT SIDE ONE IS MAINLY NEARER TO EXCELLENT AND MUSICALLY THE BETTER SIDE SO IDEAL FOR THE CURIOUS AND COLLECTORS ON A STRICT BUDGET! IF NOTHING ELSE,THIS WOULD LOOK FANTASTIC FRAMED UP ON THE WALL OF ANY PROG.ROCK FAN!
CLEAN LABELS WITH NO WRITING,STAINING AND HARDLY ANY SPINDLE WEAR. HOUSED IN THE ORIGINAL ISLAND "i" LOGO INNER SLEEVE. THE GATEFOLD COVER HAS THE "TEXTURED" EFFECT THAT WAS NOT ON LATER REPRINTS! THERE IS A PREVIOUS OWNER'S NAME AT THE BACK AND INSIDE THE COVER WITH A LITTLE EDGE WEAR BUT NO CREASES,RIPS,STAINING OR REPAIRS. PLEASE SEE ALL THE PHOTOS SHOWING THE FRONT AND BACK OF THE COVER+BOTH LABELS! NOTHING TO HIDE!
NOW PLEASE,PLEASE READ THIS LIST OF CLICKS TO AVOID DISAPPOINTMENT.
SIDE ONE:A CLICK SOUNDS FOR APPROX 25 SECONDS OF THE FIRST AND VERY SHORT INTRODUCTION TRACK"PEACE-A BEGINNING". SIDE TWO:A CLICK SOUNDS THROUGHOUT THE FIRST AND SHORT TRACK "CAT FOOD". SEVERAL LONGER LASTING CLICKS THROUGHOUT MOST OF TRACKS 3-6 WHICH ARE LESS NOTICABLE DURING THE LOUDER PASSAGES.
DESPITE THIS THERE ARE NO JUMPS OR STICKS.
A LOW,REALISTIC £12 STARTING PRICE.
Over the years I have helped to add to the collections of many collectors and given my experience, I am aware of the titles that are GENUINE RARE ITEMS.
Now of course for those who are"chained"to the record collector price guide books,for whom I am one of the main consultants, the prices are still a SUGGESTION and as we all know ACTUAL prices SOLD can vary.
The sellers on ebay who continually put"listed"or "list price"on everything should be aware of this!!!!
This is my honest grading!!!
Please see my listening policy below.
I test on a lightweight pickup of approx 2 grammes and listen with the treble full on and no filtering or mono switch used.As both a collector and dealer,I AM VERY STRICT ON GRADING but DO CHECKOUT MY FEEDBACK FOR GRADING PROOF!!!!
