Zombies Begin Here! LK 4679 1965 Plus EP The Zombies DFE8598
Please note there is a Reserve due to the owner wanting to protect it.
I have for offer this first record by the zombies along with there first EP these are in very nice condition I have shown a few scans to give you a good idea of the cover Contents and record as you know this Group Started Life in St Albans from a very young age and having few sales its hard to find with this copy coming from the area of there first venture its somehow nice. This Belonged to a Person that lived in the area and was his First Record he owned it from new and then asked me to list it as its no longer being used and feels someone else may enjoy hear it again.
So Whats the Condition firstly these Early Decca covers are so Fragile finding them clean is very hard this one has stood up to the time well the edges are without rips or seam damages etc, your notice that the opening edge here very light mild yellowing with a bit of white patching, I have seen this before and its affected a number of decca sleeves, its not storage but seems to be the Lamination thats slightly changed along the edge. Your also see some creases and a few mild marks and a very light stain to the back bottom left edge very hard to grade but lets say VG+
The Record looks very clean its clearly been looked after unlike many as there is a jet black glossy look to both sides and a nice unmarked dead wax area, the Labels show a few spindle trails showing that he played it, looking very closely under a good light I can see a couple of ultra light sleeve lines and a light hairline side two. I have checked them playback there is no Jumps sticks etc, the record is Totally Flat. the Mono Playback is Very clean with just a tiny bit of low level crackle at a few low points in on record. The run's are really clean at the start of the record I could hear some very light pop's on track four Side A, for a bit of that track, otherwise both sides sound Great with a nice clean sound clearly a EX copy.
The EP is a Bonus as he wanted it go go tother this looks in very clean condition there is a small pen Writing to the back of the cover as you should be able to see from the scans. EP looks unmarked.
If you wanted to check anything feel free to ask.
Will be packed with Great care.
