ABSOLUTELY UNIQUE ACETATE OF SYD BARRETT ONLY 7 , TAKEN OFF HIS 2nd LP THE MADCAP LAUGHS AND UNRELEASED IN THE US

I TRIED TO PLAY THIS SIDE couldn t resist AND IT BADLY PLAYS AS IT SAYS ONLY RIGHT CHANNEL BUT AT 33 rpm.

CONDITION: VG. SHINY AND STILL WITH LUSTRE, THIS 10 ACETATE TO BE CONSIDERED ONE-SIDED PLAYS WITH OBVIOUS BACKGROUND NOISE AND CRACKLES, DUE TO ITS 50 YRS.
