Hello and welcome to my auction.  Over the next few weeks I will be selling off the rest of my vinyl records from my own collection.  I will list the records with as much accuracy and honesty as I would like to see when I am buying.  I will post all records fully insured and as quickly as I can in heavy set record mailers with two spacers and the vinyl in a spare poly-lined inner.  In short, it will be bomb proof!  All my records have been kept in thick plastic wallets, stored upright at all times and played minimally on high grade equipment.  In short, I love vinyl as much as you and can expect only the best service.  Well that’s the mission statement over with, on to the record at hand...

Neil Young

Comes a Time

MSK 2266

Stereo

Reprise Records

Here we have a USA first pressing of the Neil Young record Comes a Time.  This is the very 1st pressing with the unlaminated outer sleeve which credits “Lotta Love” as the last track of side 1 whereas the disk plays “Peace of Mind”

The vinyl plays near perfect and I don’t think it has ever been played!

Side 1:  MSK-1-2266-RE3-WW7

Outer Sleeve Condition

The first press hard card outer sleeve is in remarkable condition for its age.  The spine is perfectly straight, fully readable with near no wear at all.  All the edges are straight with no seam splits at all and only very mild storage wear to the corners.  There is some mild ringwear to the front and that is all!

Excellent

Inner Sleeve Condition

The first press plain white inner with a die cut whole is in near perfect condition with only mild folding to mention!

Nr Mint

Vinyl Visual Condition

The record looks unplayed at first sight and only under a halogen bulb can we see some removal ghost lines that have no playback effect at all and you would expect to see on a brand new vinyl!  The record has its original sheen and lustre and looks freshly pressed! I don’t think the record has ever been played!

Excellent +

Vinyl Label Condition

The first press reprise tan labels are in perfect condition with no tears, stains or writing at all.  There isn’t a spindle line in sight!

Vinyl Audio

The record plays beautifully with no pops or crackle even on the quiet parts.  It is a loud and crystal clear playback from start to finish. There is no distortion in the louder parts with a clear definition between all the different elements of the band. It simply jumps off the record and with bright clarity! Final upgrade!

 Nr Mint

So that’s it, a rare 1st press Young USA mispressed sleeve in near perfect condition! This is your final stop for this rare record!

A Young Jewel!
