On offer here is a VERY rare LP especially in this condition by Jethro Tull called Living In The Past and is an ORIGINAL 1972 UK 1st Pressing
on the 1st Press Chrysalis labels THIS DOUBLE LP IS SERIOUSLY RARE
AND
VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND IT IS ONE OF JETHRO TULL S RAREST LPs
EVER - AND VIRTUALLY NEVER TURNS UP FOR SALE JUST TRY AND FIND
ANOTHER ONE BACK IN 1972 WHEN THIS DOUBLE LP WAS FIRST RELEASED -
IT ONLY EVER SOLD IN ABSOLUTELY TINY AMOUNTS AS A GENIUNE 1ST
PRESSING , AND WAS ALMOST IMMEDIATELY CHANGED AS A RESULT, IT IS
SERIOUSLY RARE AND INCREDIBLY HARD TO
LOCATE TODAY THIS DOUBLE LP IS MADE EVEN RARER STILL - AS IT IS THE EARLIEST 1ST PRESSING EVER MADE, WITH A HARD BOOK GATEFOLD COVER INTERNAL PAGES , AND 1U/1U/1U/1U MATRIX ENDINGS
HOWEVER, THERE ARE 2 DETAILS ON THIS DOUBLE LP AND ONLY 2 DETAILS ONLY - WHICH MAKE THIS DOUBLE LP COLLECTABLE NOW AND IN THE FUTURE. AND IF ONE OF THESE DETAILS ISN T PRESENT WITH DAMAGE - THEN INTEREST IN THE DOUBLE LP IN THE FUTURE WILL BE VIRTUALLY ZERO. OF COURSE, MANY PEOPLE COLLECT THIS DOUBLE LP FOR THE MUSIC, BUT MANY OTHERS WILL LIKE TO KNOW THAT THIS DOUBLE LP WILL BE WORTH MORE IN THE FUTURE AFTER THEIR ENJOYMENT OF THIS INCREDIBLE DOUBLE LP. AND AFTER YEARS AND YEARS OF SPEAKING TO COLLECTORS ABOUT THIS DOUBLE LP - THERE ARE 2 DETAILS ON THIS DOUBLE LP THAT MUST BE PRESENT:-
FIRSTLY THE INTERNAL INNER SLEEVES MUST BE UNSPLIT. THIS DOUBLE LP NEVER CAME WITH INNER SLEEVES - INSTEAD IT HAD INNER SLEEVE PAGES INSIDE THE COVER, AS PART OF THE BOOKLET. THESE WERE ONLY MADE OF PAPER, AND SPLIT EXTREMELY EASILY. EVEN INSERTING THE HEAVY RECORDS BACK INTO THE INNER SLEEVE PAGES JUST ONCE, IS AN INCREDIBLE CHALLENGE, AS IF THE RECORDS ARE SLID LOOSELY INTO THESE BUILT IN INNERS - THEY WILL SIMPLY SPLIT THE BOTTOM EDGE. PLUS AS THESE ARE PART OF THE COVER, YOU HAVE TO HOLD THE COVER WITH ONE HAND, WHILST INSERTING THE RECORDS WITH THE OTHER LUCKILY THE 1 PREVIOUS OWNER KEPT THE 2 HEAVY RECORDS IN SEPARATE INNER SLEEVES - SO THIS PROBLEM HAS BEEN AVOIDED. I WOULD ESTIMATE THAT ONLY 1 IN 10 COPIES OF THIS DOUBLE LP HAVE UNSPLIT INTERNAL INNER SLEEVES AND THATS BEING GENEROUS - AND MAKES THIS DOUBLE LP VERY VERY RARE INDEED
SECONDLY THE RECORDS ARE EXTREMELY HARD TO FIND IN TOP CONDITION THESE ONES ARE NM - AND PLAYED ONCE OR TWICE ONLY . IN NORMAL USE IN A DOUBLE LP - AFTER PLAYING 1 RECORD, IT IS SLID BACK INTO ITS INNER SLEEVE, SO THE OTHER RECORD CAN BE PLAYED. YET ON THIS DOUBLE LP, BECAUSE IT WAS VERY AWKWARD TO SLIDE IT BACK INTO THE INTERNAL INNER SLEEVE , MOST PEOPLE SIMPLY LEFT ONE RECORD LAYING ABOUT WHILST THEY PLAYED THE OTHER ONE SO IT IS NEARLY IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND AN AWESOME SET OF RECORDS LIKE THIS DOUBLE LP HAS
I WOULD ESTIMATE THAT LESS THAN 1 IN 50 COPIES OF THIS DOUBLE LP - HAVE AMAZING CONDITIONED RECORDS UNSPLIT INTERNAL INNER SLEEVES LIKE THIS ONE HAS, AND THESE IMPORTANT DETAILS UNDOUBTEDLY MAKE THIS THE ALL TIME RAREST JETHRO TULL LP EVER MADE
THIS IS THE ORIGINAL 1972 UK EARLIEST 1ST PRESSING ON THE EARLIEST
1ST PRESS CHRYSALIS
LABELS, EARLIEST 1ST PRESS 1U/1U/1U/1U MATRIX ENDINGS, EARLIEST 1ST PRESS INTERNAL
