Nick Drake - Five Leaves Left - Original UK Pink Island Release

One of the most desirable Records on the planet, Nick Drake's Five Leaves Left, the original British 1969 issue with pink label and gatefold sleeve.

Catalogue Number: Island Stereo ILPS 9105

Gatefold Sleeve : UK Guide Price £500

Nice example - Thoroughly inspected we grade this VG+/VG+ - don't confuse this with other people's idea of grading, VG+ is a nice example - no scratches or digs, a few very light brush marks only really noticable if held up to a light,

The LP retains its natural shine and plays perfectly, the sound is deep and rich - though I don't reccomend playing such a valuable LP too many times
(we just did the once!)

As in the pictures, the pink label is unmarked, no writing or wear marks around the spindle hole. Includes original paper inner sleeve (often un-included) Patent No 1135535

Outer gatefold Sleeve shows some light wear - nothing unusual for its age - made by Ernest J Day & Co, with 1969 copywrite on reverse. Inside of gatefold sleeve is exceptionally clean. (and surely includes the moodiest of all Nick's photographic images) The sleeve has no tears, bent corners, writing or defacement, and has not been repaired or reglued. Just some normal wear along the edges. Hopefully the pictures confirm the condition more visually.

Tracks:

1. Time Has Told Me
2. River Man
3. Three Hours
4. Way to Blue
5. Day Is Done
6. Cello Song
7. The Thoughts of Mary Jane
8. Man in a Shed
9. Fruit Tree
10. Saturday Sun

Don't Miss your chance to own one of the few LPs produced within Nick's lifetime.

Grading:

How It Works:

Eg:  EX/EX = First EX refers to the record, the second the sleeve (if picture sleeve is included). If the grading shown above shows just the first initials (eg: VG/- ) then that means the record is graded, but comes with plain or company sleeve.

RECORD CONDITION

MINT =As new condition, unplayed, often Sealed.
EX = Excellent condition, no noticeable marks and like new.
VG =Very Good condition, normal wear, maybe a few very light marks, plays great. 
G = Noticable marks but still plays ok.
F =Fair condition, marked and some problems. There will be more information to describe faults.

SLEEVE CONDITION

EX= Excellent condition, no noticable folds or creases, no sticker marks, As New.
VG= Very good condition, maybe some very light/normal wear,
G= Some wear, possible creasing, light marks.
F= In Fair condition, possible heavy creasing, tears, light damage, defacement.

A Plus or Minus after a grade means it is either slightly better or slightly worse than indicated above.

Retrobloke.com - Bid with Confidence:

Our website and ebay shop are a natural compliment to our high street record shop at 47 Church Road,  Hendon,  now the biggest second hand record shop in North London. That means we've got a long history of dealing with customers in the real world, aswell as online.

Our dedicated mail order office operates seperately from our shop, handling both ebay sales, and those from our own site - Retrobloke.com - which for the past seven years has specialised in obscure and hard to find records and CDs.

Earlier this year we were awarded Titanium Power Seller status, thanks to our huge number of satisfied ebay customers, and recently we sent out our 20,000th ebay parcel. We have now become the fourth biggest music seller on Ebay.co.uk

We take pride in offering exceptional customer service, and fast delivery times. We always do our very best to ensure our customers are happy and always work hard to resolve any problems that very occasionally occur.

If you are unable to pay for this item within 7 days, or are unlikely to go through with purchase, please do not bid. Negative feedback will be posted to all nonpaying winning bidders.
