THE ROLLING STONES "LET IT BLEED"
AN ORIGINAL 1970 UK MONO REPRESSING OF THE 1969 LP WITH THE BOXED LOGOS-ONE OF THE LAST EVER MADE IN MONO IN EARLY 1970-DELETED WITHIN MONTHS WHEN DECCA ONLY REPRESSED IN STEREO FROM MID TO LATE 1970 ONWARDS WHICH ALSO RESULTED IN THE ENDING OF THE DIE CUT MONO/STEREO HOLED COVERS AND THE RED MONO INNERS!
LK 5025 + P-1A/P-2A MATRIXES.THICK VINYL WITH "BOXED DECCA"LOGOS +THE ORIGINAL RED MONO AND"FOREIGN PATENTS PENDING"INNER SLEEVE WITH A DATE CODE 2-70=FEBRUARY 1970 +A LAMINATED FRONT COVER WITH SOME FAULTS-ALL LISTED BELOW.
WHEN FIRST ISSUED BACK IN 1969 THIS WAS OF COURSE A BIG SELLER BUT ALMOST EVERY MONO COPY THAT SURVIVES IS IN BEATEN UP,WORN CONDITION WHEN STEREO COPIES WERE THE MAIN ONES BOUGHT!
A FEW MONTHS AFTER IT'S DEBUT,ALTHOUGH STILL A BIG SELLER,THE MAJORITY HAD SWITCHED TO STEREO AS EVEN THE MOST BASIC NEWER MONO RECORD PLAYERS HAD COMPATABLE STEREO CARTRIDGES FITTED RESULTING IN THE REDUCED DEMAND FOR MONO PRESSINGS.
MOST RECORD SHOPS WOULD ONLY GET THESE MONO REPRESSES TO SPECIAL ORDER AND THEN AGAIN THOSE WANTING MONO COPIES WERE USUALLY GOING TO PLAY THEM ON OLD AND HEAVY EQUIPMENT.
MOST COPIES SOLD 41 YEARS AGO IN 1970 WERE 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 NUMBER OF PLAYS WITH A NUMBER OF FAINT,VISUAL SURFACE MARKS,BUT HARDLY ANY SURFACE NOISE! A FEW SHORT LIVED FAINT CLICKS AND POPS AT THE START OF QUIETER TRACKS SUCH AS"YOU CAN'T ALWAYS GET WHAT YOU WANT"BUT GENERALLY THE SOUND IS SUPERB!
NO NASTY DISTORTION AS PRESENT ON THE MAJORITY OF COPIES THAT SURVIVE!
NO LOUD CLICKS,NO JUMPS,NO STICKS!
CLEAN LABELS-JUST A LITTLE SPINDLE WEAR!
PLEASE SEE PHOTO #2 FOR THE TRACKS
THE LAMINATED FRONT SLEEVE HAS SOME CREASES,SOME STAINING,A SMALL SELLOTAPE EDGE REPAIR AT THE BACK AND INITIALS IN PEN AT THE BACK.
NO HORRIBLE SMOKE OR DAMP SMELL AS SO OFTEN THE CASE WITH SUCH OLD LPs!
THIS LP ITSELF IS IN VERY GOOD+++ CONDITION ALTHOUGH THE BLINDFOLD TEST WOULD GIVE A LISTENING GRADE OF EXCELLENT!! A CREDIT TO THE MIGHTY DECCA'S LOUD CUT MASTERING!
THIS IS A SOLID,GUTSY MONO MIX WITH FAR MORE BASS AND MUCH THICKER VINYL THAN LATER 1970s and 1980s REISSUES WHICH HAD WAFER THIN VINYL!
GREAT VOCALS AND GUITARWORK WITH WARM SOUNDING VINYL + AMAZING BASS!
