Running Man ST UK LP 1972 NEON PROG MONSTER RARE GRAIL TEST PRESSING UNPLAYED

 





***PLEASE NOTE I ACCEPT PAYPAL ONLY FROM OVERSEAS CUSTOMERS FOR THIS ITEM, THANKS***

A serious one for UK prog collectors here.

One of the most sought after prog rock rarities from the UK and certainly (perhaps alongside Time Is.. by Raw Material) the rarest on RCA NEON. How about this; an even RARER STILL UK test pressing of this legend! Only a handful these would have been made prior to the actual release and most of those would have probably been thrown away. To find one still surving like this is almost unthinkable. This is my second and only copy which was purchased from a former industry person. I wanted to keep this one but needs must :-(

Excellent album, showcasing the criminally underestimated talent of guitarist Ray Russell. Released a year before the seminal Lady Killer album by Mouse.

Machine stamped Matrix numbers:

Side A): AGBS 0736-1E  A/A

Side B): AGBS 0737-1E  A/A

 

 

First press of the first press!

Visually Near Mint. I played the previous copy and it sounded awesome, big sound with rich, fat bass tone - killer bottom end on this LP.

Good luck & happy bidding!

 


 

 


Please bid only of you intend to pay, thanks.

 

Please note, I always remove records from main sleeve when packing to avoid seam splits during trasportation, unless the record is still sealed. I will happilly open the seal carefully at sellers request to remove from sleeve if desired.  I use cruciform LP mailers (NOT envelopes) with multiple stiffeners for added safety. I have also started using corner protectors too :-)

 

Please also note that I will now only send records by Recorded, Airsure and International Signed for. I will no longer send records without a tracking number, so please do not bid if you object to the shipping costs, thanks.
