Tony Ashton, Jon Lord (Deep Purple): The First of the Big bands In Concert, BBC Transcription disc, vinyl album.
This is the official BBC transcription disc from 1974?
Green and white label with black and green printing. Later unofficial pressings were just black and white labels.
Heavy matt mustard coloured card sleeve with polythene inner lining.
Original two sided printed cue sheet.
Stereo Pop Special – 80 (i& ii) ref No CN 2153.
Cat No 136098-SQ & 136099- SQ.
Ian Paice and Carmine Appice on drums
These were pressed in very limited numbers for radio broadcast use and are now becoming increasingly hard to find.
When originally bought (pre loved I recall) was played at most once or twice, then filed away in its polythene sleeve on a shelf…only to now surface.
Visual inspection reveals disc in apparent excellent condition, deep glossy lustre. with no obvious significant flaws, minor hairline across end of track 4 and beginning of track 5 on side A, minor handling finger smudges. No spindle wear.
Please see the photos.
Selling on behalf of my Dad (who supplied all the info) from his personal collection, from the olden days when he collected vinyl.
I aim to use recycled packaging when possible, but rest assure that your vinyl will be well packed and protected against the trials of postal travel!
Important perspective info, please read….thanks ?.
A few words about the vinyl grading.
I try to be as honest as possible, but all grades are based upon an experienced but ultimately subjective visual inspection, trying to identify and highlight obvious issues.
Back in the day whilst my Dad purchased much of the vinyl new, as he expanded his collection , (eventually running into a few thousand discs) hence many only played once, inevitably he was drawn to second hand (pre-loved) copies of certain discs, including the rarer original 1970’s issue boots.
As you will appreciate, otherwise you wouldn’t be reading this or looking at the listing, the nature of many of these live/unofficial recordings meant that original production standards were not necessarily a top priority, with occasional mastering/pressing faults occurring.
Similarly with any second hand vinyl which in some cases is almost 50 years old they will potentially exhibit aural signs of having been played, sometimes a fair bit..these are not mint, new unplayed discs (unless stated).
The attraction for my Dad was either obtaining the different variations of an issue or otherwise unavailable rare recordings…its called collecting!
When playing vinyl my Dad had a Technics SL1800 turntable with Ortfon cartridge, so no thrashing and grinding on an old fidelity UA4! (early 70’s starter bedroom lo-fi, crank it up ?).
Any questions or if you need more photos please ask.
If you have any issues please contact me before leaving feedback as my intention is to give you the e-bay buying experience that I myself would want, i.e. customer satisfaction all round.
Please check my feedback to re-assure yourself regarding both quality of packaging and accuracy of descriptions. Thank you
