John Wilson In The Land Of Brick And Mortar Vinyl Lp Acid Folk Masterpiece Sc010

John Wilson - In the Land of Brick and Mortar SHARING SC 010 STEREO 1980 matrixes SC-010-A-1 SC-010-B-1 The chances are that if you are looking at this lp, you already know it s a masterpiece of acid folk, where John takes you on a deep and dark trip of the soul that s oozing with atmosphere, searching introspection and celebration of his beliefs.
The songs are achingly beautiful yet hauntingly simple with John s heartfelt vocals, layered female backing vocals, gentle acoustic guitars and shimmering, hypnotic synthesisers.
You ll also probably know how incredibly difficult to find and sought after it is - this is because it was an extremely limited run on a private pressing by the tiny label, Sharing.
This lp surfaces so rarely and I very much doubt you will find a better copy than this The sleeve features fabulous monochromatic artwork on both sides.
It is made from a very delicate and thin cardboard and so there is naturally some ring wear showing on both sides.
Remarkably however, this particular copy is fully intact and there are no tears at all - just minor creasing to the edges.
Please carefully examine the photos.
Grading is VG.
Even more remarkable is that the vinyl looks like it has been played only a handful of times.
As you can see in the photos it looks stunning, having lost none of its original lustrous sheen.
The spindle hole is very clean indeed.
I would comfortably grade the vinyl as NEAR MINT and it is the BEST COPY I have seen of this uber rare lp.
The lp has been cleaned on my superb Hanns Acoustic record cleaning machine, so that it is received in the most pristine condition possible.
The vinyl now has a brand new anti-static poly inner sleeve and the original paper inner.
The poly sleeve protects against sleeve removal hairlines.
I will also provide a new plastic sleeve to protect the cover.
It will be sent in a brand new strong MusicMax cardboard mailer with cardboard stiffener and further padding.
The vinyl will be removed from the outer sleeve to ensure no further ring wear in transit.
If you have any further questions, please don t hesitate to ask and I will do my best to help.
