Description
A RARE ORIGINAL UK LP BY SAM 'LIGHTNIN' HOPKINS ON THE VERY COLLECTABLE BLUE HORIZON LABEL FROM 1971 CAT NO 2431-005 IN MONO TITLED AND 'LET'S WORK AWHILE' ...
JUST ONE OF SEVERAL BLUES, ROCK AND SIMILAR RELATED LP'S (MORE BLUE HORIZON TO FOLLOW ONCE TRANSFERRED TO CD FORMAT) THAT ARE BEING LISTED OVER THE COMING WEEKS, & MOST ARE IN VERY NICE CONDITION-WELL WORTH HAVING A LOOK!!
THE 134 GRAM VINYL HAS LIGHT SURFACE MARKS AND A FEW SPINDLE MARKS ON BOTH CLEAN WHITE LABELS- WOULD GRADE EASILY VERY GOOD+ BUT PLAYS NEAR EXCELLENT-PLAYS THROUGH BOTH SIDES WITH VERY LITTLE DETERIORATION IN SOUND QUALITY-THERE IS SOME LIGHT UNOBTRUSIVE SURFACE NOISE (STATIC) IN PLACES, BUT STILL AN ENJOYABLE AND PLEASURABLE LISTENING EXPERIENCE......
AS WITH MOST OF THE LP'S BEING LISTED, THEY HAVE BEEN STORED ( ALWAYS UPRIGHT) & MAINLY UNPLAYED FOR A NUMBER OF YEARS, SO WOULD ALMOST CERTAINLY BENEFIT FROM A PROFESSIONAL DEEP CLEAN....
FLIMSY UNLAMINATED E.J.DAY SLEEVE HAS LOTS OF STORAGE WEAR AND RUBBING BOTH TO FRONT & REAR, THIS CAN BE SEEN CLEARLY ON THE PICTURES, THESE 'POST WAR MASTERS'SLEEVES, IT SEEMS, ARE VERY PRONE TO RUBBING, (I DO HAVE OTHERS WITH SIMILAR WEAR ) THERE IS EDGE AND SPINE WEAR, NOT RUBBED THROUGH- A NAME AND ADDRESS ON TOP INNER EDGE OF OPENING- NO SPLITS & WITH ALL TEXT ON REAR STILL LEGIBLE- WOULD GRADE REALISTICALLY AROUND GOOD CONDITION- COULD BE TOUCHED IN TO ACTUALLY IMPROVE CONDITION..NOT ONE I WOULD NORMALLY SELL, BUT DUE TO THE INCREASING RARITY OF THIS PARTICULARY OBSCURE LP, IT WILL DEFINITELY SUFFICE UNTIL THAT ELUSIVE MINTY GEM EVENTUALLY TURNS UP....
PLEASE NOTE; BEFORE POSTING, ALL VINYLS ARE REMOVED FROM THEIR OUTER SLEEVES TO PREVENT ANY SEAM SPLITS, HOUSED IN NEW POLYLINED INNER SLEEVES, NEW OUTER PLASTIC COVERS AND PACKED WITH AT LEAST 3 (MORE IF NECESSARY) CORRUGATED CARDBOARD STIFFENERS TO MINIMISE THE RISK OF ANY DAMAGE DURING TRANSIT...
ALL UK ITEMS POSTED 1ST CLASS..
IF YOU DO REQUIRE ANY OTHER POSTAL SERVICE, I.E SECOND CLASS, RECORDED, SPECIAL DELIVERY ETC, PLEASE FEEL FREE TO EMAIL AND I WILL ENDEAVOUR TO GET A FIRM PRICE FROM POST OFFICE..
PLEASE NOTE ALSO.. I DO NOT PROFIT FROM POSTAGE AS ALL PACKAGING MATERIALS USED, ( LP'S ALWAYS WELL PACKED) USUALLY COST MORE THAN FINAL P&P PRICE.. IF HOWEVER, THERE IS A PROBLEM, PLEASE CONTACT ME, AND I AM SURE THAT THIS CAN BE RECTIFIED AMICABLY.....
