VINYL: EX. A super heavy, only lightly played copy with beautiful glossy vinyl. This is out of this world and cannot possibly be found so late in the day. An upgrade for most collectors for sure. I played this on my Linn Sondek/ B W set up and it sounded fantastic without any clicks , jumps , crackle etc. NO hairlines or marks. Only minimal paper retraction traces even new vinyls have this , barely visible just under a strong light.
VERTIGO INNER: EX. Has just light age related yellowing.
Hippy Trippy Acid Jazz Prog Rock.
The keyboardist just blows your socks off with a stunning Hammond performance on Dylan s All Along The Watchtower cover.
Must of been amazing to watch them play live in the London clubs in 69 and 70.
Wish I d been there.
Wicked album, with 2 tracks not up to par with the rest, but the others are very very good.
Recommended if you like early jazz psych acid rock with that Hammond organ. from : rateyourmusic.com
BEAUTIFUL SLEEVE ARTWORK BY KEEF AND .... HARDEST TO FIND INTACT gt gt 99 OF ALL COPIES HAVE SOMETHING WRONG WITH THEM lt HOW MANY COPIES WOULD THERE REALISTICALLY BE LEFT LIKE THIS??- ORIGINAL FIRST PRESSING ON VERTIGO-LARGE SWIRL LABEL
Gatefold Sleeve: EX. This sleeve is in WONDERFUL CONDITION it almost always turns up with excessive damage. This is an out-standing copy of this sleeve. It is very flat and square. Light storage edge wear.The spine is never found still legible. but this one is . The front is EX with NO RUBBING TO THE SURFACE, NO UNWANTED WRITING, NO STAINING, and NO CREASING AT ALL TRULY AMAZING FOR THIS SLEEVE it really is so delicate and fragile. The rear is also in wonderful condition. The opening is super crisp. The spine is FULLY legible but does have some wear.
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.
