As some of my regular buyers will already know - I have had some 'technical' issues recently, causing me to stop listing for 1 week (first time since 2002).  However, permanent measures have been taken to stop a repeat of these issues, and I am back with a HUGE list of AWESOME items!  These will all be ending on Sunday 3rd of March, so keep an eye on my listings from now until then - because there will truly be some INCREDIBLE items added non stop during the week (all ending on that date!).  Good luck if you decide to bid - and take a look at this AMAZING item below:-

FIRSTLY THIS DOUBLE LP HAS THICK QUALITY VINYL AND MILES THICKER THAN ANY LATER PRESSING!!!!  SECONDLY THIS LP COMES WITH ITS ORIGINAL 1ST PRESS 'FOLD-OUT' INSERT - BEING THICK AND QUALITY, HAVING A 'SATIN' FRONT & BACK, AND A SINGLE FOLD TO THE BOTTOM (THIS WAS CHANGED STRAIGHT AFTER RELEASE TO A TEXTURED BACK & A DOUBLE BOTTOM FOLD TO MATCH THE COVER & INNER)!!!!  THIRDLY THE 'PICTURE' INNER SLEEVES ARE MADE WITH THICK QUALITY CARD WITH A 'TEXTURED' INSIDE (LATER PRESSINGS ARE MUCH THINNER - AND HAVE 'SHINY' INSIDES!) AND HAS THE UK 1ST PRESS CAT NUMBER ON BOTH (LATER ONES DONT!)!!!!  FOURTHLY - ALL THE RECORD LABELS HAVE NO 'WARNER BROS' LOGO ON THEM (ALL LATER ONES DID!) - AND THE MATRIXES ARE ALSO THE 'EARLIEST POSSIBLE' BEING 1/4/1/1 (LATER ONES WERENT!)!!!!  AND LASTLY THIS DOUBLE LP HAS THE 'EARLIEST POSSIBLE' STYLE OF BOX SHAPED 'WINDOW' COVER (LATER PRESSINGS HAVE MUCH THINNER COVERS), WITH 'RED LETTERING' ON THE SPINE & THE CORRECT ADDRESS ON THE REVERSE (LATER ONES DONT!)!!!!  IT IS ALSO IMPORTANT TO STRESS THAT ALL PARTS OF THIS LP ARE UK 1ST PRESSED AND COMPLETELY ORIGINAL TO THE 'DAY OF RELEASE' BACK IN 1975!!!!  AND THIS IS VITALLY IMPORTANT AS OFTEN ON LATER PRESSINGS EXPORTED GERMAN COVERS, INNERS, OR RECORDS WERE USED.  BUT NOT THIS ONE!!!!  THIS LP IS A 100% GENIUNE 1975 'EARLIEST' UK 1ST PRESSING WITH A UK 1ST PRESS COVER, UK 1ST PRESS 'PICTURE' INNERS, UK 1ST PRESS 'FOLD-OUT' INSERT, AND UK 1ST PRESSED SET OF RECORDS - AND IS THE 'EARLIEST' UK 1ST PRESSING THAT YOU CAN POSSIBLY GET!!!!

The record labels to BOTH records are in SUPERB condition (see pictures) with NO writing, NO wear and barely ANY spindle marks AT ALL!!!!  IT IS VERY CLEAR THAT THESE RECORDS HAVE BARELY BEEN PLAYED AT ALL!!!!  The vinyl is in absolutely BRILLIANT condition (though most would say AWESOME here!)!!!! Most of these 60s/70s LPs had been to a lot of wild parties and are usually found totally worn out, and almost unplayable. This one is NOT and BOTH records have NO scratches, NO scufflines, and only a VERY few of the lightest paper scuffs only visible under light!!!!  It is VERY important to remember that these record came from the factory in VERY harsh TEXTURED inside inner sleeves - so no GENIUNE 1st Press records will be truly flawless under light.  However these are the VERY best I have EVER seen - with only 2 or 3 MEGA light hairlines, and only some very VERY light paper scuffs ONLY!!!!  The records looks JET BLACK and SUPERBLY glossy with absolutely NO MARKS AT ALL!!!!  ITS AS SIMPLE AS THAT!!!!  BOTH RECORDS STILL RETAIN THEIR ORIGINAL 'JUST PRESSED' LOOK AND SHINE LIKE NEW!!!!  It is great to find that the records play as STUNNINGLY as the visual with NO pops, NO sticking, NO jumps, NO hiss, and barely ANY crackle AT ALL!!!!  The sound quality is simply SUPERB with NO distortion and NO groovewear either!!!!  I will be mega MEGA strict and only grade BOTH records visually Very Good++++ if not better (though most would grade Excellent+ here for sure!), and the playing grade is EASILY Excellent+ if not NM!!!!  AN ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT SET OF RECORDS THAT PLAY SUPERBLY!!!!  Believe me these records are NOT overgraded in ANY way!!!! I use STRICT RC grading standards - it is not in my interest not to!!!! Brillant!!!!  The ORIGINAL 1st Press 2 'Thicker' card 'Picture' inner sleeves are in STUNNING condition with NO rips, NO tears, NO edge wear, NO rubbing, NO ringwear, NO splits, and NO writing!!!!  AN AWESOME SET OF INNERS!!!!  THE ULTRA RARE 'EARLIEST' 1ST PRESS 'SATIN' SINGLE FOLD 'FOLD-OUT' INSERT IS IN ABSOLUTELY STUNNING CONDITION - AND CLEARLY HASN'T EVER LEFT THE COVER!!!!  The ORIGINAL 1st Press 'Box Shaped' Window Cover is in absolutely SUPERB condition for once!!!!  The cover has NO splits, NO damage to ANY of the windows AT ALL (PERFECT die-cuts!), NO edge wear, NO spinal wear (PERFECT 'side words'!) apart from some fractional 'touching in' to 1 spine (the other is PERFECT!), only VERY slight corner wear, NO ringwear, NO rubbing, barely ANY creases AT ALL, NO sticker marks, only some very VERY minor evidence of 'tipping in' to the corner tips, NO sticker tears, NO annotations, and NO writing!!!!  The opening edge is beautifully straight with barely ANY feathering AT ALL!!!!  Even the back of the cover is in SUPERB condition for once!!!!  JUST LOOK AT THE PICTURES OF THE COVER BACK!!!!  The cover back on this Double LP is always the weak part of this cover.  It is dark in colour, rubs easily and usually looks terrible.  BUT NOT THIS ONE!!!!  I can quite safely say that this is the VERY BEST conditioned cover back for a 1st Press Cover that I have EVER seen!!!!  The cover back has PERFECT 'die-cut' windows, NO grubbyness, NO ringwear, barely ANY rubbing AT ALL (virtually NONE - really REALY fractional isolated traces ONLY!), NO yellowing, NO sticker marks, and NO writing!!!!  The cover must grade Excellent(Minus) if not FULL Excellent!!!!  SUPERB COVER!!!!  THIS DOUBLE LP IS SERIOUSLY RARE AND VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND LIKE THIS (ESPECIALLY AS THE 'EARLIEST' 1ST PRESSING EVER MADE!) - SO DONT MISS OUT ON THIS INCREDIBLE OPPORTUNITY!!!!
