PINK FLOYD
'ATOM HEART MOTHER'
CAT NO. SHVL 781
RARE!!! ORIGINAL UK VERY FIRST PRESSING OF THE 1970 LP ON GREEN HARVEST LABLE WITH 'THE GRAMAPHONE CO LTD' AND 'MADE IN GT BRITAIN' TEXT AROUND THE RIM LABEL. NO EMI BOX LOGO.
A SUPERB AND INCREDIBLY RARE VINYL IN THIS AMAZING AND WELL-PRESERVED CONDITION. HOUSED IN THE ORIGINAL 'OCTOBER 1970' GARROD & LOFTHOUSE MATT GATEFOLD COVER SLEEVE. ALSO INCLUDES RARE HARVEST INNER. ALL IN EXCEPTIONAL CONDITION!!
MATRIX: A-1G / B-1G
FIRST MATRIX STAMPER NOS:
SIDE ONE: SHVL781 A-1G MOTHER STAMPER: 1 4 HM
SIDE TWO: SHVL 781 B-1G MOTHER STAMPER: 2 M T
(KEY NOTE: UNIQUELY THIS FIRST PRESSING IS ALSO THE ONLY ISSUE TO CONTAIN THE 'LOOPED' DRIPPING TAP AUDIO AT THE END OF 'MORNING GLORY')
VINYL: EX++ NM
LOOKS BARELY PLAYED! THE VINYL VISUALLY ON BOTH SIDES LOOKS FREE FROM ANY OTHER NOTICEABLE SURFACE MARKS OR WEAR. UNDER STRONG LIGHT IT'S DIFFICULT TO DETECT ANY MARKS APART FROM A MILD, FEINT HAIRLINE ON SIDE 1 WHICH IS JUST COSMETIC AND DOESN'T SOUND. SIDE TWO IS CLEAR WITH NOTHING SHOWING. IF YOU WERE GOING TO BE OVER CRITICAL THE VINYL REVEALS NOTHING BUT VERY FEINT INNER SLEEVE REMOVAL TRACES. DEEP SHEEN. I DON'T BELEIVE YOU COULD FIND ONE IN BETTER CONDITION.
AUDIO PLAYBACK: NM
NOTHING OF ANY CONSEQUENCE. WARM YET VIBRANT SOUND.
LABELS: EX+
THE ORIGINAL HARVEST LABELS LOOK VIBRANT AND CLEAN WITH ONLY A VERY SLIGHT TRACE OF SPINDLE USAGE. IF IT WAS PLAYED IT WAS DONE SO VERY CAREFULLY!
COVER: EX+
ORIGINAL GARROD & LOFTHOUSE IN MATT SHEEN FINISH. IN FABTASTIC CONDITION AND HAS OBVIOUSLY BEEN STORED VERY WELL, WITH ONLY THE VERY SLIGHTEST OF LIGHT CREASES AND EDGE FEATHERING. THE SPINE IS WONDERFUL WITH THE TEXT READIBLE, JUST SOME SLIGHT STORAGE SCUFF/RUB WEAR.
INNER: EX+
WONDERFUL RARE HARVEST INNER. SLIGHTLY YELLOWED IN PLACES, BUT FANTASTIC. NO TEARS OR SPLITS.
OVERALL A REAL COLLECTOR'S ITEM IN THIS CONDITION!
