ROLLING STONES No. 2
Label : Decca Cat No : LK 4661
Matrix : XARL 6619 2A // XARL 6620 2A Issue : UK Original Press
This is the UK Original press of No.2 by The Rolling Stones. This early press has the early 2A//2A matrix, the heavy original 60's vinyl and the original handling inner sleeve. The vinyl is complete with the 1st press James Upton 'blind man' laminated sleeve.
The vinyl is in Excellent condition. Both sides have the most sensational mirrored gloss, there are no signs of heavy play or any wear to the grooves at all. There are just a few very light wispy hairlines, but these are insignificant, every track gleams. The original plain red grooved Decca labels are exceptionally bright and completely clean. The colour is solid and unworn, the text is sharp and there is just the slightest spindle wear.
The sound quality is Excellent. The vinyl lies completely flat on the turntable and the sound is exceptionally rich and warm. Superb clarity and audio separation from start to finish. Just a few moments of very light background noise but certainly nothing that spoils the enjoyment of this album at any point.
The sleeve is in Very Good condition. The image is sharp, the text is clear and the laminate has a superb mirrorlike shine. There are a few light laminate creases and a little ring wear. The back has slight discolouration but it is still bright and the text is sharp. There is an old price written in the corner. The whole cover still feels solid and the spine has clear text.
