This is the ORIGINAL Track UK 'Earliest' 1st Pressing from 1968 and is in GREAT condition!!!! The records are pressed on THICK quality vinyl. The Cat. No is 613 008/9 on the ORIGINAL 1st Press 'Matt' Track Labels (see picture) and is a Stereo 1st pressing (there were NO Monos)!!!!

The record labels to BOTH records are in SUPERB condition (see pictures) with NO writing, NO wear (apart from a TINY touch around the centre holes), and only a few spindle marks!!!! The vinyl is in BRILLIANT condition!!!! Most of these 60s Double LPs had been to a lot of wild parties and are usually found totally worn out, and almost unplayable. These records are NOT and BOTH records have NO nasty feelable scratches, only 2 or 3 light hairlines, only 1 visible (but completely NON sounding!) scuffline, and only a VERY few of the lightest paper scuffing only visible under light!!!! BOTH RECORDS STILL RETAIN THEIR ORIGINAL 'JUST PRESSED' LOOK AND SHINE LIKE NEW!!!! It is great to find that BOTH records play as STUNNINGLY as the visual with NO skips, barely ANY clicks, NO sticking, NO jumps, barely ANY crackle AT ALL, and only some VERY slight background sound on the run on grooves & gaps - NOT in the music AT ALL!!!! The sound quality is simply SUPERB with NO groovewear and NO distortion either!!!! BOTH records must grade Very Good+ if not better!!!! WHAT A GREAT SET OF A RECORDS!!!! Believe me these records are NOT overgraded in ANY way!!!! I use STRICT RC grading standards - it is not in my interest not to!!!! Brillant!!!! The records also come in their ORIGINAL 1st Press matching DATE CODED inner sleeves which are both in BRILLIANT condition!!!! The ULTRA RARE 'Earliest' 1st Press 'E.J.Day' FULLY Laminated 'Blue Text' Gatefold Cover is in GREAT condition!!!! It has NO annotations, NO splits, NO edge wear (apart from some almost INVISIBLE 'touching in' traces!), NO rips, NO tears, NO spinal wear, NO sticker tears, only slight corner wear (NOT through the colour!), only some very VERY minor evidence of 'tipping in' to the corners, NO laminate loss, a few light creases (mainly towards the VERY edges - and cover is still VERY flat looking!), shiny laminate, and NO writing!!!! The opening edges are beautifully straight with barely ANY feathering AT ALL!!!! Even the laminated inside of the cover is in BRILLIANT condition with NO grubbyness, NO yellowing, VERY shiny laminate, and NO writing!!!! The cover must grade Very Good (PROPERLY graded, NOT trashed!) if not better - and is still a very VERY decent cover indeed!!!! THIS DOUBLE LP IS SERIOUSLY RARE AND VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO LOCATE (ESPECIALLY AS THE 'EARLIEST' 1ST PRESSING EVER MADE!) - SO DONT MISS OUT ON THIS INCREDIBLE OPPORTUNITY!!!!
