This is one of a large collection of LPs that have come directly from the BBC record archive. Many sleeves have been 'laminated' either by way of 'punching' the plastic wallet to two parts of the sleeve (I have found it possible to remove this lamination with a little care, leaving just two neat brass punch holes and whatever stickers are underneath) or by fully wrapping the plastic to the sleeve. All sleeves will contain archival stickers from the BBC. The majority of these stickers are 'on top' of the plastic with some 'underneath' (i.e. on the sleeve itself). Condition of the sleeves is therefore rated as VG in the vast majority of cases (this being an acknowledgement of the lamination and stickers). It could well be that ignoring the above the sleeve is in EX or NM condition and I will endeavour to point out where this is the case. I will also point out where there is any major variation from the summary above.

Artist & Title: Chris McGregor's Brotherhood of Breath - Self Titled

Label: RCA Neon

Cat: NE 2

Year of First Release: 1971

Year of This Release: 1971 First Press

Vinyl Condition: VG+

Sleeve Condition: Fair

Label Condition: VG+

Notes/Description: The vinyl is shiny with a few light surface lines that have no effect and it sounds great. The sleeve has been laminated using the punch hole method which I have since removed with a number of archive labels. At some time i'm guessing that the spine was damaged and it looks like a couple of mm has been cut off it and then a repair applied. It comes with the original plain black inner sleeve it tatty condition.

Explanation of typical Postage Costs - As of 8 April 2024 I've had to revise postage costs due to increased costs and changes to Royal Mail offerings. This is the first change in my rates for 2 years. I have also simplified down to a single service - that makes it slightly dearer for items below £20 but slightly cheaper for those over £20. International rates remain unchanged.

UK - if an item is listed up to £150, I will send Royal Mail "Tracked 48" and charge £5.30 (eBay will take roughly 80p of this).

UK - on the more expensive items, I will send either by Parcelforce or Royal Mail Special Delivery and charge £9.50 - I make a loss on this.

Europe (less than 750g) - if an item is listed at less than £20, I will send International Standard and charge £11.75.

Europe (less than 750g) - if an item is over £20, I will send International Tracked and charge £16.50. 

Europe (less than 750g) - if an item is over £50, I will send International Tracked & Signed and charge £19.00.  

If Buying from outside Europe, please ask for a quote for postage and after purchase please wait for an invoice.
