ATTENTION 1960s BRITISH R&B/BEAT GROUP AND THE WHO COLLECTORS AS WELL AS CONDITION UPGRADERS!     

HERE IS AN ORIGINAL 1965 MONO 1ST ISSUE OF THE RARELY SEEN(IN THIS CONDITION) DEBUT AND ESSENTIAL ALBUM BY THE WHO:"MY GENERATION" VERY RARELY TURNS UP IN AS OUTSTANDING EXCELLENT+++ CONDITION AS THIS UPGRADER STANDARD EXAMPLE!.  IT'S THE BEST COPY I HAVE EVER FOUND AND HEARD IN NEARLY 30 YEARS AS A DEALER! FACT! DIRECT FROM THE COLLECTION OF A MAJOR COLLECTOR WHO HAS FINALLY DECIDED TO SELL HAVING CARED AND CHERISHED HIS RECORDS-MOST BOUGHT NEW AT THE TIME WITH MINIMAL PLAYS AS OFTEN THE CASE WITH LARGE COLLECTIONS.THEY WERE STORED UPRIGHT ON STRONG SHELVING AWAY FROM LIGHT,HEAT,DAMP AND THE PREVIOUS OWNER WAS A NON-SMOKER!  THIS IMPRESSIVE EXAMPLE HAS AMAZINGLY NOT HAD MUCH USE IN 50+ YEARS AS WELL AS A CLEAN COVER AND AN ORIGINAL "FOREIGN PATENTS PENDING"INNER SLEEVE!

ISSUED ON THE DECCA PRESSED BRUNSWICK  LABELS:LAT 8616 WITH THE "GROOVED" LABELS AND 2B/2B MATRIXES. THE LAMINATED FRONT COVER PRINTED BY ROBERT STACE HAS AN INCREDIBLE SHINE TO IT UNLIKE JUST ABOUT EVERY PREVIOUS COPY I HAVE SEEN.  LOCATING A REALLY OUTSTANDING 1965 MONO COPY IS ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE AS THE MAJORITY OF COPIES WERE PLAYED OVER AND OVER AGAIN CAUSING MAJOR DISTORTION AND GENERAL WEAR. THIS COPY HAS HAD SOME SLIGHT USE WITH GLEAMING SURFACES,JUST A COUPLE OF ULTRA FAINT AND WISPY SURFACE MARKS VISIBLE UNDER STRONG LIGHT. HARDLY ANY SURFACE NOISE EVEN IN BETWEEN THE TRACKS! THE MONO MIXES HAVE FAR MORE BASS THAN THE STEREO REPRO EDITIONS OF RECENT YEARS. THE RECORD HAS NO LOUD CLICKS,NO STICKS OR JUMPS.

STRICTLY AND SERIOUSLY GRADED AS EXCELLENT+++++++ CONDITION! MANY WOULD GLADLY STATE NEAR MINT.

THICK VINYL.THERE IS HARDLY ANY SPINDLE WEAR AND NO LABEL WRITING,STAINING,RIPS OR DEFACEMENT. HOUSED IN THE ORIGINAL "HANDLING" POLYLINED INNER SLEEVE WITH THE "FOREIGN PATENTS PENDING" CREDIT WITH JUST A LITTLE STAINING AT THE EDGES.

THE COVER HAS A FEW ULTRA TINY EDGE CREASES,THREE TINY STAPLE HOLES NEAR THE LEAD IN EDGE AND SOME VERY SLIGHT STAINING AT THE BACK EDGES BUT MUCH WHITER AND BRIGHTER THAN MOST EXAMPLES THAT SURVIVE! THERE IS NO WRITING,RIPS OR REPAIRS!  PLEASE SEE ALL THE PHOTOS SHOWING THE FRONT AND BACK OF THE COVER AND BOTH LABELS! NOTHING TO HIDE!

Over the years I have helped to add to the collections of many  collectors and given my experience, I am aware of the titles that are GENUINE RARE ITEMS.

Now of course for those who are"chained"to the record collector price guide books,for whom I am one of the main consultants, the prices are still a SUGGESTION and as we all know ACTUAL prices SOLD can vary.

The sellers on ebay who continually put"listed"or "list price"on everything should be aware of this!!!!     

This is my honest grading!!!

Please see my listening policy below. 

I test on a lightweight pickup of approx 2 grammes and listen with the treble full on and no filtering or mono switch used.As both a collector and dealer,I AM VERY STRICT ON GRADING but DO CHECKOUT MY FEEDBACK FOR GRADING PROOF!!!!
