Item Description

Hi, and welcome to psych out auctions I ve collected 50 s, 60 s, and early 70 s records of almost every genre - Psych, Prog, Psychedelic Funk, Soul, Rhythm n Blues, Pop, Folk, Garage, Acid, Freakbeat, Rock, Jazz e.t.c and everything in between for all my life Obviously, 90 of the LP s I ve ever gotten hold of are completely trashed from the hard living ways and the rock n roll, drug and booze fuelled debauchery of all the wild parties of the times, but the golden 10 ? Reluctantly, I ve decided to offer them to all of you serious record collectors out there I m currently trying to set up a record label so unfortunately personal sacrifices have to be made when it comes to my collection, resulting in GREAT benefits for all you shrewd bidders and serious connosieurs of TRUE solid gold music history out there Make no mistake, I ll try my best to consistently offer some of the VERY BEST records available on ebay, many which have taken me YEARS to find I aim to put a weekly batch up time permitting every Wednesday, all timed to end 10 days later on Saturday night.
I ll only ever offer THE BEST, MOST AMAZING, MOST IMPORTANT, VERY RAREST UK 1ST PRESS ORIGINAL RELEASE RECORDS I ve got I won t insult you with later 2nd pressings unless they are of exceptional quality and rarity.
I m sure you love good music as much as me, especially when it s a 1st Press LP, direct from the master tape, as the musicians intended it to be heard none of this digitally remastered ,weak reissued, remixed rubbish from hired hands with one eye on the mixing desk and the other on the clock If these session men really knew how genius should sound, surely they would ve been geniuses themselves? There will only ever be one Hendrix, and that s just a tiny example .
I try to be one of the best sellers on ebay and would like to thank all of you potential bidders for your support and taste in music I strictly grade all LP s I list, visually and sonically using the UK RRPG standards as customer satisfaction is highly important to me, and I ll always do my very best not to let you down.
Be sure to add me to your favourite sellers list and check my auctions frequently as i ll be listing some gems that you just WON T want to miss out on I think that s everything, so let the auction commence Title : The Beatles -

Spectacular Original 1963 UK 1st Press Vinyl Nice bright, clean and shiny as if it was just pressed Fantastic jet black mirror like surfaces, it looks GREAT with NO really nasty scratches, groovewear, or nasty deep scuffs whatsoever The only blemishes are just some light wispy sleeve traces, a few mild hairlines and age marks, and just a small amount of cosmetic scuffs only visible in direct angled light mostly caused from where it has sat or been removed from it s cover over the years Of course, none of these minor blemishes interfere with play at all thanks to the deeply pressed quality BRILLIANT for a record of this age and rarity Must grade overall at least as Very Good graded STRICTLY to the UK RRPG standards, not overgraded AT ALL Customer satisfaction is of 100 importance to me Record : Audio -Thankfully, it plays BRILLIANTLY with fantastic mono blast and clarity It really sounds great with NO hops, hisses, sticks OR skips Only like pretty much all records has a touch of low level static in places such as on the run in grooves and between some tracks, only the very rarest light non repetitive tick now and then, just the slightest hint of frequency static on very rare occasions very mild and takes a well trained ear to notice - not on the vocal and very buried and just a touch of mild bluesman s fag atmospheric crackle in few and far between places such as on some of the quieter sections and between tracks, but it really doesn t overshadow the music AT ALL it s much more soft and atmospheric rather than the sound of bacon frying I d even argue it gives it added soul I tend to bring it down by listing every single flaw I noticed, but this remains a hugely enjoyable and clean sounding listen - The music is TRULY loud and clear with that bass, depth, warmth and clarity you can only get from UK 1st Press vinyl AMAZING for a record of this age and rarity Must grade overall audiably at the least as Very Good graded STRICTLY to the UK RRPG standards, not trashed or overgraded AT ALL Customer satisfaction is of 100 importance to me Sleeve : Original far-right Angus McBean credit UK 1st press 1963 Mono front laminated flipback E.J Day sleeve complete with original inner IMPOSSIBLE to find this sleeve in anything approaching a good condition - most are spent, torn and worn due to age and the lifestyles of the buyers of this particular LP This one is NOT, and looks BRILLIANT, especially considering the nature of these fragile sleeves NO really bad marks AT ALL, and still ultra strong and solid after all these years Only has a few signs of light ageing such as just a tiny amount of ultra light minuscule creases and the merest ghost of a record imprint, only some very minor ageing to the still ultra clean unlaminated back such as only the very slightest dulling to the still bright white colour barely any - absolutely NO writing, graffiti, coffee cup stains OR grubbiness at all , a little creasing to the upper right flipback tip and only a very small piece of the bottom right flipback tip missing it s the only thing stopping me grade this higher - stunningly clean for a 51 year old sleeve of this rarity , a touch of denting/rounding to the four corners which basically ALL vintage LP s have, and POSSIBLY just to be sure one or two other minor signs of age here and there, though nothing that really stands out to note at all And that s truly about it I tend to bring it down by emphasizing the negatives, but this is a fantastic sleeve the iconic front pic looks absolutely AWESOME , and a TRUE rarity to find one as fantastic as this - most have been virtually destroyed or are just about being held together, but not this one It remains ultra strong, solid, unsplit and unspoilt, and even the spine remains ultra strong, solid, unsplit and 100 readable Must grade overall at least as Very Good graded STRICTLY to the UK RRPG standards, not trashed or overgraded AT ALL Customer satisfaction is of 100 importance to me Summary : An AWESOME example of this PHENOMENALLY RARE Black Gold iconic classic Mono UK 1st Press debut LP Hard to find in any condition, but IMPOSSIBLY RARE TO FIND ONE AS FANTASTIC AS THIS YOU MAY NEVER GET THE CHANCE AGAIN, so don t miss out on this scarce opportunity to own a true piece of 60 s/70 s music history Bid now Please take a look at all my other auctions for many other ultra rare classic LPs, and feel free to contact me with any questions you may have.
Thanks again for looking, it s truly appreciated Cheers I ve realized that most countries have their own unique grading system.
I base mine strictly on the UK RRPG grading system occasionally with a or a - to indicate the higher and lower ends of the grade, though I only use these if i m having real trouble deciding , so please check their chart for further clarity if you are unsure of what my grades mean.
As a general rule, a mint record will be 100 perfect, an excellent record will be in fantastic clean condition with the occasional mild mark and minor use from the years, and a very good record will have noticeable, yet light visual markings and obvious signs of age and use, but will still remain clean with relatively light wear and will play fantastically well with plenty of life remaining in it.
