Description
THE YARDBIRDS - ROGER THE ENGINEER
A lovely condition copy of this 1966 Yardbirds psych gem with a well kept vinyl and equally impressive original outer sleeve.
Year/Label : UK Columbia 1966
Label number : MONO SX 6063
Matrix numbers : XAX 3126 - 1 / XAX 3127- 1
Stampers : R0 / 1 GL
1966 UK 1st pressing with very good plus bordering on excellent condition vinyl : each side has retained a jet black sheen and it is only with close inspection under a bright light that a few small wispy hairlines and faint paper scuff marks come into view - there is nothing feelable or obviously below the surface; excellent (EX) condition labels...unmarked except for some light spindle trails adjacent to the centre hole on each label, and note the 1st press "K" and "T" tax codes embossed upon the side 2 label.
Very good plus condition Garrod & Lofthouse front-side laminated & flipback outer sleeve with all art work, colours and text remaining in rich, vibrant condition with perfect definition still; each edge remains firm and 95% unscuffed with some edge creasing and the corners have light rubbing on each.
The lamination remains in great condition with no lifting, a couple of barely noticeable 1cm laminate creases adjacent and perpendicular to the spine. The reverse side the flipbacks remain near perfect and there is just the hint of some very minor age discolouration towards the opening edge - impressive!
Comes with original patent listing inner with split bottom and age discoluration, with a period replacement included to keep the record safe.
A landmark mid 60's psych LP from this highly influential band and a welcome addition to any serious vinyl collection.
