THE MOLE CATCHER

VERY RARE 1970'S FOLK PRIVATE PRESS LP

RECORDED LIVE AT THE THETFORD FOLK CLUB NOT MANY OF THESE HAVE SURFACED OVER THE YEARS. ALL WERE PACKAGED THE SAME WAY - A PASTED FRONT PICTURE, ON AN INNER SLEEVE, WITH ANOTHER PASTED SHEET ON THE BACK WITH TRACK/ARTIST LISTINGS. GREAT MUSIC, RANGING FROM TRADITIONAL AND DRAKE-INFLUENCED WISTFUL TO MORE UPBEAT (TOTEM), WITH SOME JOKES THROWN IN. A REAL 70'S FOLK TIME-PIECE.
PLEASE SEE PHOTOS OF THE BACK SLEEVE FOR TRACK DETAILS.


VINYL

A REALLY CLEAN VG+ WITH A GREAT PLAYBACK - WILL BE ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND FIND ANOTHER COPY LIKE THIS (OR EVEN FIND ANOTHER COPY!). A NICE CLEAR AUDIO, WITH SOME OCCASIONAL LOW LEVEL BACKGROUND - A LITTLE MORE ON THE FIRST COUPLE OF TRACKS ON SIDE TWO. FOR ME, NOTHING INTRUSIVE THOUGH, AND FOR MOST OF THE TIME IT'S A GREAT AUDIO ON MY LINN. A NICE COPY OF THIS HUGELY COLLECTABLE UK FOLK PRIVATE PRESS.


WE PLAY GRADE ON A LINN SONDEK LP12 WITH ITTOK LV II ARM AND LINN KLYDE CARTRIDGE. ALL GRADING AS PER RRPG GUIDELINES. PLEASE SEE OUR 'GRADINGS EXPLAINED' SHOP PAGE FOR MORE INFO.

SLEEVE

NICE SOLID VG, EXACTLY AS IT CAME TO US - WITH SOME CREASING AND GENERAL WEAR, MOSTLY TO EDGES AND BACK PASTE. PLEASE SEE PHOTOS FOR MORE DETAILS. ON THE OCCASIONS WHEN THIS LP DOES SURFACE, IT'S BEEN KNOWN FOR PEOPLE TO TAKE THE PASTED SHEETS OFF AND PUT THEM ON ANOTHER INNER. THIS SLEEVE IS THE ORIGINAL ARTIFACT, WITH NOTHING CHANGED OR ALTERED.
