MY GENERATION

mono

PLAYS WITH EX AUDIO !!!!
THIS IS A 1965 UK ORIGNAL 1ST PRESS WITH 1ST PRESS LABELS !!!!
SO WHY IS THIS A UK 1ST PRESS WITH 1ST PRESS LABELS ????
FIRSTLY IT HAS -1B / -1B IN THE RUN OFFS, AND ON THE LABELS IT HAS, 'ORIGINAL RECORDING AND LICENSED BY DECCA RECORDS INC. NEW YORK USA' RIM TEXT ON TOP OF THE LABELS. HAS THE M/T TAX CODE ON THE RIGHT SIDE, AND 'P 1965' ON THE LEFT SIDE, ALSO, 'N.C.B'. AND 'B.I.E.M' BOXES, ABOVE 'M.C.P.S, ALSO ON THE LEFT !!!!

TIME FOR SOME MORE OF 'THE WHO', WHO WERE FORMED IN LONDON IN 1964, AND ALSO PLAYED WOODSTOCK, AND WHO DO NOT NEED ANY MORE INTRODUCTIONS !!!! THIS IS THEIR BRILLIANT FIRST AND DEBUT ALBUM, ORIGINALLY RELEASED ON 3rd DECEMBER 1965, AND ONE OF THE BEST ALBUMS EVER PRODUCED !!!! PLAYS BRILLIANT, NO RESERVE AND SILLY LOW START PRICE, AND YET ANOTHER SAD LOSS FROM MY TREASURED PERSONAL VINYL COLLECTION  
DISCLAIMER :: ALL MY LP'S LISTED ON THIS SITE ARE ORIGINAL AND NOT FAKE OR COUNTERFEIT, AND ARE SOLD IN GOOD FAITH. THEY WERE BOUGHT ON THE DATE OF ISSUE. THANK YOU !!

THIS IS AN ORIGINAL 1965 UK MONO 1ST PRESS  ::  MG-10256-1B  KT   1  2B  ::  MG-10257-1B  KT   1  I .

ON THE MONO BRUNSWICK LABEL ::  LAT.8616 .

COVER ::  ORIGINAL BRUNSWICK MONO, 1ST PRESS FRONT LAMINATED, PRINTED IN ENGLAND BY ROBERT STACE, AND IN NICE SOLID CONDITION. LOVELY SOLID SPINE AND EDGES, JUST A TINY RUB ON THE CORNERS. THE LAMINATE ALSO IN LOVELY CONDITION, WITH NO LAMINATE LIFT JUST A FEW SMALL CREASE LINES AROUND THE EDGES. NOW A BIT LIKE THE BACK OF THE EARLY ZEP 2 COVERS, THE BACK OF THE BRUNSWICK COVER IS VERY HARD TO FIND WITHOUT WEAR, OR WRITING, BUT AS YOU CAN SEE THIS IS HAS SURVIVED, SO JUST SOME LIGHT AGE RELATED MARKS AS SEEN IN THE PHOTOS. THE OPENING EDGE IS STILL SHARP, AND I WOULD GRADE A VERY NICE ORIGINAL  :: VG+ . VINYL  :: THE VINYL PLAYS WELL WITH LOVELY MONO AUDIO, SO NO SKIPS, JUMPS, STICKS, STATIC, POPS OR CLICKS, AND HONESTLY WHAT IS MENTIONED BELOW IS NOT INTRUSIVE AND NOT OVER THE AUDIO SO A WONDERFUL VINYL TO LISTEN TO. AS IT IS RARE, I WILL DESCRIBE THE AUDIO TRACK BY TRACK, TO GIVE YOU THE BEST POSSIBLE AUDIO DESCRIPTION .... ALL I HEARD WAS ..... SIDE 1 :: TRACK 1 :: JUST ONE SINGLE FAINT TICK JUST BEFORE THE END. TRACK 2 :: HAS TWO FAINT TICKS AT THE START . ONE SINGLE FAINT TICK BETWEEN TRACKS . TRACK 3 :: PLAYS FINE WITH NOTHING TO MENTION . ONE SINGLE FAINT TICK BETWEEN TRACKS . TRACK 4 :: PLAYS FINE WITH NOTHING TO MENTION . TRACK 5 :: PLAYS FINE WITH NOTHING TO MENTION . ONE SINGLE FAINT TICK BETWEEN TRACKS . TRACK 6 :: PLAYS FINE WITH NOTHING TO MENTION . SIDE 1 :: TRACK 1 :: PLAYS FINE WITH NOTHING TO MENTION . TWO FAINT TICKS BETWEEN TRACKS . TRACK 2 :: HAS TWO FAINT TICKS AT THE START, A TINY BIT OF VERY FAINT STATIC IN THE MIDDLE (NOTHING MUCH AT ALL), AND TWO FAINT TICKS TOWARDS THE END . ONE SINGLE FAINT TICK BETWEEN TRACKS . TRACK 3 :: PLAYS FINE WITH NOTHING TO MENTION . TWO FAINT TICKS BETWEEN TRACKS . TRACK 4 :: HAS SIX FAINT TICKS AT THE START, AND THREE FAINT TICKS TOWARDS THE END. ONE SINGLE FAINT TICK BETWEEN TRACKS . TRACK 5 :: PLAYS FINE WITH NOTHING TO MENTION . TWO FAINTS TICK BETWEEN TRACKS . TRACK 6 :: PLAYS FINE WITH NOTHING TO MENTION . THREE FAINT TICKS IN THE RUN OFFS . IT ALL SOUNDS A LOT, BUT PLEASE READ AGAIN, AND YOU WILL SEE IT IS ONLY TRACK 4 ON SIDE 2, WITH A BIT MORE GOING ON, BUT AS MENTIONED NOTHING INTRUSIVE, AND THE ODD FAINT TICK BETWEEN SOME TRACKS AS DESCRIBED ABOVE !!!!
VISUALLY, NOW UNDER BRIGHT LIGHT THERE ARE QUITE A LOT OF HARMLESS COSMETICS. THERE ARE COSMETIC SLEEVE REMOVAL SPIDER WEB THREAD ULTRA FINE LINES, AND SOME VARIOUS SIZE COSMETIC HAIRLINES, AND TWO MORE NOTICEABLE SMALL THIN SCUFFS ON SIDE 2, ONE HALF WAY ACROSS TRACK 4, AND THE OTHER AT THE END OF TRACK 4, AND START OF TRACK 5, BUT ALL THIS IS JUST MORE OF A VISUAL EFFECT RATHER THAN AN AUDIO EFFECT. SO FOR THAT ALL IMPORTANT AUDIO GRADE, AND I COULD HAVE GONE EXCELLENT, BUT I WILL PLAY IT SAFE AND SO GRADE THE AUDIO  :: EX/EX- .
LABELS :: NICE AND CLEAN, WITH JUST A COUPLE OF FAINT SPINDLE LINES AT THE CENTRE SEEN UNDER BRIGHT LIGHT :: EX/EX- .


ORIGINAL POLYLINED INNER WITH FOUR BLUE BOXES :: WITH NO WRITING, OR SEAM SPLITS, BUT THERE IS SOME AGEING, AND OF COURSE THE VINYL WILL COME IN A NEW POLYLINED INNER, ALONG WITH THE ONE DESCRIBED ABOVE :: VG/VG+ .
SO THERE YOU HAVE IT, THE WHO AND THEIR 1st ALBUM, AND A MONO EARLIEST UK 1ST PRESS BRUNSWICK, AS DESCRIBED ABOVE, THAT PLAYS BEAUTIFUL WITH NOTHING NASTY OR INTRUSIVE, SO STILL A VERY ENJOYABLE VINYL TO LISTEN TO !!!! THANK YOU AS ALWAYS FOR YOUR TIME !!!!  ROSE. DUE TO WHAT IS GOING ON IN OUR CRAZY WORLD, I AM SORRY ALL PACKAGES WILL BE SENT ROYAL MAIL INTERNATIONAL TRACKED WITH A TRACKING NUMBER, WHICH IS SAFEST AND BEST WAY, SO WE CAN TRACK YOUR PACKAGE, THANK YOU !!!! 
IF SLEEVE REMOVAL AND HAIRLINES ARE MENTIONED, THEN THEY ARE TOTALLY COSMETIC AND HARMLESS, AND THESE ARE NOT SCRATCHES, AS YOU WILL KNOW SCRATCHES ARE FEELABLE AND CAUSE AUDIO PROBLEMS, SO IF THERE WERE ANY SCRATCHES, I WOULD MENTION THEM, THANK YOU !
TAKE CARE AND BE SAFE !!!!
