Description
On offer here from my rare record collection is The Rolling Stones 'Let It Bleed' the 1969 DECCA UNBOXED MONO original UK 1st pressing with 1A 1A matrixes! It is in superb condition and been played with great care by a record store where it came from after a promotional run. Of note is the genuine 1A 1A first pressings are becoming rarer and rarer by the day due to the small production run before DECCA changed the mother plate to 2A for mass production. THIS ALBUM IS FANTASTIC AND MANY SAY THIS IS THE ROLLING STONES FINEST WORK! THIS SURELY HAS TO BE ONE OF THE BEST COPIES STILL AVAILABLE AND I DOUBT YOU WILL FIND A BETTER COPY. I HAVE TEST PLAYED IT BEFORE LISTING AND CAN REPORT THAT IT PLAYS ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANTLY in fantastic mono! It really sounds incredible on both sides when played loud!The music is ultra clear and sounds ABSOLUTELY AWESOME with the bass, depth, warmth and clarity you can only get from a 1st Press DECCA UK mono vinyl! An outstanding listen which is amazing for a record of this age and rarity!
In addition to its fantastic audio return, this album is complete as can be seen by the listing photo. It comes with a great MATT 1ST EDITION VK poster which has never been away from the stickered outer cover with its mono/stereo peep hole in the back AND it comes with the original 1ST EDITION RED MONO INNER identifying the London Bach Choir credit. This was later removed by Decca for legal reasons.
In grading the album, I can say that the vinyl/wax on both sides is in top condition and unmarked! Most of these 60s Stones LPs are as you expect usually found WITH lots of SCRATCHES. This one is NOT one of those. It has been protected since its purchase in 1969. THE WHOLE RECORD SHINES LIKE NEW AND STILL RETAINS ITS ORIGINAL 'JUST PRESSED' LOOK!
It is great to find that the record plays as STUNNINGLY as the visual! As said above, the record comes in its ORIGINAL 'Let It Bleed' inner which is PERFECT, NO splits, NO stains, etc The MATT POSTER is in STUNNING condition with NO rips, NO tears, NO wear, NO stains and NO pinholes! There is just a very very small old sticker mark. The STICKERED Cover advertising the free VK poster is in EXCELLENT + condition! It has NO edge wear, NO spinal wear. It retains ALL its original flatness, MEGA shiny laminate and NO writing! The unlaminated back is also in excellent condition with NO writing, NO rubbing, NO grubbiness and NO yellowing! Just a small sticker in the top corner saying for promotional use.
THE LIB PROMO BOOKLET THAT COMES WITH THIS ALBUM SHOWING PHOTOS OF THE BAND AND THEIR PAST ALBUM CATALOGUE IS EXTREMELY RARE AND IN VERY GOOD CONDITION ALBEIT WITH A CREASE IN THE CENTRE. IT IS CLEAN WITHOUT ANY PEN WRITING.
Although I believe my description speaks louder than any photos can, please ask if you want to see more photos and I will send them to you.
OVERALL THIS IS A TOP GRADED COMPLETE PACKAGE AND COMES WITH A NO QUIBBLE MONEY BACK GUARANTEE!
