JUST TRY AND FIND ANOTHER ONE BACK IN 1973 WHEN THIS LP QUICKLY DISCONTINUED ON THE BLUE TRIANGLE LABEL BECAUSE THE TRACKS WERE HARD TO MAKE OUT - IT ONLY EVER SOLD IN ABSOLUTELY SMALL AMOUNTS NO MORE THAN A COUPLE OF THOUSAND WERE PRESSED UP, HOW MANY WOULD STILL BE LEFT?? A MAGNIFICENT EXAMPLE HOLY GRAIL PROG LP ESPECIALLY IN THIS GREAT CONDITION PLAYS AWESOME ON EACH SIDE AS YOU CAN SEE THE COVER IS IN GREAT CONDITION, SEE PICS TRY TO FIND ANOTHER COPY LIKE THIS ONE A FANTASTIC COLLECTOR S COPY COMES WITH THE ORIGINAL 1973 WHITE PRINTED BLACK INNER SLEEVE IN EX CONDITION Vinyl: EX.
A super copy I have played this in full gt There are NO jumps, NO clicks and NO sticks Even under an intense light it looks great with only a few wispy hairlines.
There is one very light hairline/mark on Money which produces four low level ticks.
The audio is stunning all the way and this album sounds fantastic.
All other tracks play with strong gusto and the channel separation is just awesome It totally went under the radar and is now extremely scarce especially as a first issue on the extremely collectable Harvest Solid Blue triangle label.
I have had this album a few times but this is the best I have come across for a long while Gatefold Sleeve: EX.
Unlaminated gatefold sleeve.
This is of course the original sleeve with the dark blue hue, not the slightly later black sleeve that is often married to the vinyl by dealers In lovely condition really considering that this sleeve is so very prone to extensive wear, the opening is still nice and crisp and is a strong indicator that this LP has not been handled much and has been well preserved in its protective polythene sleeve.
The inside gatefold is simply awesome.
The edges have only light storage wear, the pictures tell all.
The spine is 100 .
No creases.
The LP includes the ORIGINAL MATT FINISH to the FRONT AND BACK of the POSTERS The two stickers are also included and are unused.
Labels: EX.
No writing, only light spindle traces.
This is a unique investment opportunity This album hardly sold at all.
Finding this album in any condition at all is nearly impossible so late in the day.
Condition is what counts and this album really delivers, an upgrade for most collectors.
A very hard album to find in any condition these days, leave alone in this EX condition.
This album is only going to go one way ...
up and up ...
until it will be totally unavailable at all for a reasonable price.
How many would be left??? But in this great condition ....? Golddust This an excellent investment opportunity Any questions please ask me and I will try to answer soon.

Though there are rarely ever any problems with my items, I always try my very best to describe everything exactly PLEASE REMEMBER to contact me FIRST, if you have any problems at all, before you leave feedback and star ratings, so I get a chance to turn any negative experience into a positive one I can always happily sort anything out for you, if you let me know you have a problem This way no one has to leave Negative/Neutral feedback - and we both walk away happy Similarly with the amount of stars, anything less than a full 5 rating is effectively detrimental to a seller s rating as lower ratings will incur higher Final Value Fees and lower priority in the bidlists eventually making it unattractive to list items on Ebay at all.
I know of at least one major previous Ebay seller who has decided not to list via Ebay again.
Please do NOT bid if you cannot give me at least 1 chance to sort everything out to your FULL satisfaction in the unlikely event of a problem.
Thanks again This an excellent investment opportunity Any questions please ask me and I will try to answer soon.
