AND THIS IS ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND ON THIS LP!!!! ONLY AN ABSOLUTELY TINY AMOUNT OF THE 'EARLIEST' 1ST PRESSINGS ONLY - WERE EVER PRESSED LIKE THIS (BEFORE THE 'PHILIPS' CREDIT WAS IMMEDIATELY REMOVED!) AND THIS LP WAS THE LAST VERTIGO LP EVER TO BE MADE WITH THE 'EXTRA PHILIPS LABEL CREDIT' (HENCE IT LASTED THE SHORTEST AMOUNT OF TIME BEFORE REMOVAL!)!!!! IF YOU TAKE A LOOK AT THE LABEL - YOU CAN CLEARLY SEE AT THE BOTTOM OF THE LABEL (SEE PICTURES) IT HAS PRINTED 'A PHILIPS RECORD PRODUCT'!!!! THIS TEXT ONLY EVER APPEARED ON THE 'EARLIEST' 1ST PRESSINGS EVER MADE AND WAS REMOVED IMMEDIATELY AFTER RELEASE!!!! SO THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NO DOUBT AT ALL - THAT THIS IS THE 'EARLIEST' & RAREST 1ST PRESSING OF THIS LP YOU CAN POSSIBLY GET!!!!

NOT ONLY THAT, BUT THIS LP IS IN BRILLIANT CONDITION - AND CLEARLY HASN'T BEEN PLAYED MUCH AT ALL!!!! JUST TAKE A LOOK AT THE PICTURES!!!! THIS IS THE ORIGINAL 1970 UK 'EARLIEST' 1ST PRESSING ON THE 'EARLIEST' 1ST PRESS 'LARGE' VERTIGO 'SPIRAL' LABEL, 'EARLIEST' 1ST PRESS 'PHILIPS' LABEL CREDIT, 'EARLIEST' 1ST PRESS 1/1 MATRIX ENDINGS, 'EARLIEST' 1ST PRESS VERTIGO 'SPIRAL' INNER SLEEVE, AND 'EARLIEST' 1ST PRESS GATEFOLD COVER!!!! THIS LP IS SERIOUSLY RARE AND VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND LIKE THIS - SO DONT MISS OUT ON THIS INCREDIBLE OPPORTUNITY!!!! This is the ORIGINAL Vertigo UK 1st Pressing from 1970 and is in BRILLIANT condition!!!! The record is pressed on THICK quality vinyl. The Cat. No is VO 7 on the ORIGINAL 1st Press Vertigo label (see picture) and is a UK Stereo 1st Pressing (there were NO Monos!).

The record labels are in SUPERB condition (see pictures) with NO wear, NO writing, and only a few VERY light spindle marks!!!! IT IS VERY CLEAR THAT THIS RECORD HASNT BEEN PLAYED MUCH AT ALL!!!! The vinyl is in BRILLIANT condition!!!! Most of these 60s/70s LPs had been to a lot of wild parties and are usually found totally worn out, and almost unplayable. This one is NOT and has NO nasty concentric marks AT ALL, NO nasty 'tick' marks AT ALL, only 1 VERY light TINY hairline, only 1 light scuffline, only 2 or 3 absolutely ULTRA light TINY surface traces, and only a VERY few of the lightest paper scuffs only visible under light!!!! THE RECORD STILL RETAINS ITS ORIGINAL JUST PRESSED LOOK AND SHINES LIKE NEW!!!! It is also GREAT to find that the record plays as STUNNINGLY as the visual!!!! The record plays with NO pops, only a few VERY light clicks (though mostly NONE!), NO sticking, NO jumps, barely ANY crackle AT ALL, and only some 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!!!! The record must grade Very Good++ if not better!!!! Believe me this record is NOT overgraded in ANY way!!!! I use STRICT RC grading standards - it is not in my interest not to!!!! Brillant!!!! The record comes in its ORIGINAL 1st Press Vertigo 'Spiral' inner sleeve which is in BRILLIANT condition still FULLY 'poly-lined'!!!! The ORIGINAL 1st Press Gatefold Cover is in BRILLIANT condition!!!! The cover has NO edge splits, NO spine splits, only some VERY minor 'touching in' to the edges & spine, NO sticker marks, NO ringwear AT ALL, only VERY slight corner wear (NOT through the colour!), NO sticker tears, barely ANY creases AT ALL (cover is VERY flat looking indeed!), barely ANY rubbing, NO annotations, and NO writing!!!! The opening edges are beautifully straight, with barely ANY feathering AT ALL (with some possible evidence of very marginal trimming here - though this is very doubtful indeed, as the edges meet up perfectly, and the record & inner slide deep into the cover!)!!!! Even the inside of the cover is in BRILLIANT condition with NO yellowing, NO grubbyness, NO ringwear, NO rubbing (apart from the usual touch towards the very top!), and NO writing!!!! The cover must grade Very Good++ if not better!!!! THIS LP IS SERIOUSLY RARE AND VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND LIKE THIS (ESPECIALLY AS THE 'EARLIEST' 1ST PRESSING EVER MADE!) - SO DONT MISS OUT ON THIS INCREDIBLE OPPORTUNITY!!!!
