ATTENTION PROGRESSIVE ROCK COLLECTORS! HERE IS A HARD TO FIND ORIGINAL MONO PRESSING OF THE TEN YEARS AFTER ALBUM: "UNDEAD" ON THE DECCA PRESSED DERAM LABEL. DML 1023 WITH THE EARLIEST POSSIBLE 1B/1B MATRIXES AND THE"UNBOXED" LABELS UNLIKE LATER REPRESSES IN THE ORIGINAL LAMINATED FRONT COVER.
THE RECORD ITSELF IS IN NEAR EXCELLENT CONDITION WITH JUST A FEW LIGHT SURFACE MARKS,MOSTLY SURFACE MARKS,A COUPLE OF SHORT LIVED FAINT CLICKS BUT NOT VERY MUCH SURFACE NOISE-NO STICKS OR JUMPS-STRICTLY GRADED WITH VERY NICE SOUND! CLEAN LABELS WITH JUST TINY BIRO PEN INTIALS ON EACH LABEL-HARDLY ANY SPINDLE WEAR+THE ORIGINAL RED MONO INNER SLEEVE WITH THE"FOREIGN PATENSTS PENDING"CREDIT. MOST COPIES THAT WERE SOLD 44 YEARS AGO IN 1968 WERE OFTEN PLAYED A LOT USUALLY USING ANCIENT,HEAVY AND AWFUL EQUIPMENT AND SO OFTEN TAKEN TO PARTIES RESULTING IN ALL KINDS OF DAMAGE!-THIS ONE HAS HAD A FEW PLAYS BUT STILL CHERISHED AND WELL CARED FOR BY ONE OWNER SINCE 1968! PLEASE SEE THE PHOTOS OF THE FRONT AND BACK OF THE COVER+BOTH LABELS!NOTHING TO HIDE!THE LAMINATED FRONT COVER PRINTED BY CLOUT AND BAKER HAS SOME RING WEAR STAINING AT THE BACK AND A FEW CREASES AS WELL AS A RIP ALONG THE BOTTOM EDGE MEASURING 9CM BUT NO WRITING OR REPAIRS-BETTER THAN MOST THAT SURVIVE! A REAL JOY FOR ANY 1960s BLUES/PROGRESSIVE ROCK FAN!NO HORRIBLE SMOKE OR DAMP SMELL AS SO OFTEN THE CASE WITH SUCH OLD LPs!
THIS COULD BE YOUR LAST OPPORTUNITY TO OWN ONE OF THE RAREST AND BEST OF ALL THE TEN YEARS AFTER LPs!
MOST WILL REMAIN ON COLLECTORS SHELVES! THIS IS A LOVELY PRESSING!
THIS 1ST ISSUE FROM 1968 HAS FAR MORE BASS AND MUCH THICKER VINYL AS WELL AS A MUCH THICKER COVER THAN LATER 1970s and 1980s REISSUES WHICH HAD WAFER THIN VINYL!GREAT VOCALS AND GUITARWORK WITH WARM SOUNDING VINYL + AMAZING BASS!
GREAT INVESTMENT!!!
TOTALLY FLAT VINYL! GET IT WHILE YOU CAN!
IN 1968 MOST NEWERE MONO RECORD PLAYERS COULD SAFELY PLAY STEREO RECORDS AND AS SUCH THE DEMAND FOR MONO EDITIONS WAS LESS THAN BEFORE 1968-SOME DEALERS WHO ALSO SOLD STEREO EQUIPMENT(KEEN TO SELL THE NEW KIT AS WELL!)WOULD OFTEN ONLY OBTAIN THE MONO COPIES TO SPECIAL ORDER.
THOSE STICKING WITH MONO BY 1968 WERE OFTEN PLAYING THE DISCS ON OLD AND HEAVY EQUIPMENT RESULTING IN FEWER COPIES SURVIVING IN DECEN CONDITION LIKE THIS COPY!
PLEASE LOOK AT THE PHOTOS.
