Status Quo - Live - original 1977 vinyl double album - superb copy

	£		15
	$		20

I am selling a large range of vinyl records featuring a very wide variety of musical styles. They are all authentic original pressings, featuring quality music mostly from the 1970's and 1980's. They have all been very well cared for, though I will give an honest appraisal of their condition and will put up plenty of photos of the actual items for sale so you can see exactly what you are bidding on. I always endeavour to highlight anything which I think that I would like to be made aware of before deciding to place a bid, so I do tend to grade critically.
All these records are thoroughly deep cleaned using a professionally constructed wet vacuum system using only the highest purity record cleaning fluid so the vinyl is all very clean, glossy and dust free. Everything listed is, at the very least, really thoroughly test played, (a bare minimum of at least 4-5 tracks) though almost always played right through both sides on a quality deck and I apply extremely high standards to my vinyl and would never sell a record that I would not be perfectly happy to have in my own cherished record collection. In the case of rare or particularly interesting vinyls, I may list records which may fall short in some way of my usual standards, but this would always be very clearly highlighted in the descriptions.
I visually inspect every record under very bright light using an inspection lamp.
A note regarding the most important matter of all - the audio - as with all vinyl, even straight out of the cellophane, there can be light crackle or very light 'pops' during the quiet passages. I have listened carefully, at the very least in part, to all these records, so I will highlight in the descriptions any aspects of the audio playback which I consider to be outside the parameters of the very high standards I apply to my own listening. Please be assured that I would never sell 'fried breakfasts', only high quality records.
All records will be supplied to you in a good quality clear outer wallet to protect your sleeves.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Status Quo - 'Live!' - original 1977 live double vinyl album in superb condition. Matrices read 1//1 - 2//4  - 1//1 - 2//2 with 'MELYS' etched into the run off. 
The disc 1 vinyl is in lovely glossy condition with only the lightest inner sleeve hairlines visible in bright light. Disc 2 is in beautiful unmarked condition. I have really loved listening to this record over the past couple of days and I am listening to the record as I type this and the audio is just superb, really crisp and clear and wholeheartedly delivering that characteristic vinyl clarity, richness and depth. Recorded at Glasgow Apollo over 3 nights in 1976 using the famous Rolling Stones mobile recording studio, the audio on this live album is just exquisite and that unmistakable Quo guitar sound currently filling my lounge really stunning. As live albums go, both given the stellar set-list, the superb audio and the high quality media production this album really would take some bettering.
The full colour gatefold sleeve features lovely artwork and superb photographs of the band. The centrefold carries lots of full colour photographs from the performance. This sleeve is in immaculate condition. The spine is lovely, sharp ans square and fully readable. Each face of the 2 inner sleeves features beautiful quality full colour photos of the 4 band members and are both in excellent condition.
You'd have to go a very long way to find a better copy of Status Quo's legendary first live album than this one and this superb record would make a worthy addition to anyone's playing rock vinyl collection.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I will send the records very thoroughly packaged in very good quality cardboard mailers with card stiffeners and with 'signed for' delivery which does cost an extra quid but I'll feel more confident that the records will safely arrive with you that way.
I will be listing lots of other very varied high quality records over the coming days and weeks and I have other listings currently running so please check out my other items for sale and thank you for looking.
