Description
Prodigy - Firestarter XL Recordings Label - XLT70 1996 UK First Pressing on Black Vinyl
This listing is for a sought after original UK pressing of the smash hit Firestarter from Prodigy. Very difficult to find original Prodigy records in nice condition, the record is in stunning almost unused condition with audio to match - turn the volume down until your speakers are warmed up :)
For any cynics out there I am a huge Prodigy fan and do not wish to profit from his tragic passing. I sold a copy of this record just before his death and listed it at the same price.
I am very tempted to keep it but I have the albums so would just collect dust.
Please check out my other listings for other rarities and classics across various genres.
All of my records are play tested on a Technics SL-1200 with a Grado GF3 stylus which is quite revealing so any sound defects may be more exaggerated than on other more mainstream players. Or conversely if you are a full on audiophile I will let you judge how your set up compares and how you envisage the sound will compare.
I don't currently have access to a cleaning machine so please forgive any dust or finger marks which are on any of my records - hopefully will be investing in one at some point.
Record Appearance - VG+ I wouldn' normally use NM on a 20 year old record (god I feel old), but this is really stunning and as new condition. Labels are in great condition just the expected light spindle marks under a bright light. Only downgraded as some idiot decided to write his name on one of the labels, but may come off with a careful hand.
Record Audio - NM Incredibly quiet record even on run in and the audio is just breath taking like everything from Prodigy. Big rich bass and pitch perfect mids and highs, a great demo piece for big speakers.
Record Sleeve - VG Considerable shelf wear on spines and edges but still intact. Some ring wear visible under a bright light. The aforementioned idiot also wrote his name on the rear of the sleeve and the letter P on the front. It is in silver felt pen so may come off with the right materials. Record is the prize here, the vibration of the living room will be remembered long after the sleeve. Rest in peace my friend.
All questions answered and offers considered. Thanks for looking and please follow me and check out my other listings as they appear. I work full time and have 3 children so please forgive any delay in communication but should be within 24 hours.
