Attention! ALL JIMI HENDRIX COLLECTORS
SUPER RARE EXAMPLE 613-001A COLLECTORS ADVANCE PROMO STEREO copy prduced mainly for FM radio station use any questions are welcome on this
quality Nr Ex `Vault stored` copy 

 Please note that this album is complete and original Track UK EXAMPLE 613-001A  Records pressing from 81 on the black Track label and is priced for its rarity and attraction to collectors rather than for its condition, it is 39 years old !
we are selling this as duplicate in our collection to explain Polydor owned the rights to Track who were wound up in 79 and did a limited 1st issue of this classic in Stereo due to demand, this copy still has its original Made in West Germany inner sleeve

the sound quality of these
SUPER RARE EXAMPLE 613-001A presses is superior in our view to the newer reissues but over to the listener....
We have compared the Stereo Mix here with the 50th Anniversary deluxe edition and this is way way better, much cleaner vocal and distinct bass response which is a lot different from the Mono 66 UK release.

A1 B1 original Nr EX vinyl 1st Stereo press very rare in good order

This has a different track listing to the US version and is extremely hard to find in Stereo as only a limited run were produced in 1981 for FM stations mainly only some 2,000 to 3,000 were estimated sold on the UK track label for a very short run
after the distinctive `Polydor Red` Label had appeared.
This is an advance promo copy for DJ and radio stations use as the expansion of  FM broadcasting meant Stereo copies were more in demand

these are High in value and much harder to find than the Classic Mono versions which were all the original releases on Track uk as radio stations used AM broadcasts and Mono was prefered for this, the story goes Jimi  liked the `Stereo mix` and Chas Chandler pushed the Mono forwards for commercial reasons and AM radio consumption in the 60s 

  To explain you can limit this further as "Stereo" was being launched as a format in 66 and 67 and later re presses were released in Stereo only..

 the original Mono pressing have a "great sound" for us, the US versions are generally poorer quality presses in our experience, its possible that less than a few thousand Track Stereo pressings still exist in playable order now 39 years later...this is A1 B1 so the very very first full priced stereo available on the Classic UK Black Track Label..only a limited short run was made.

  Jimis blistering Debut...recorded in London and originall released in Mono London 1967 first on the iconic "UK Black Track label"
This the Original Stereo mix is a great listen if you love the different mixes .
unlike Axis which was released simultanious in STEREO AND MONO, ARE YOU EXPERIENCED WAS ORIGINALLY MONO ONLY.   

Please ask Questions on any aspect of this record!
 we will try to accommodate...

This vinyl is from a very short run of this amazing Stereo mix in 81 , has * Made in Great Britain * at 6 o`clock on the label. We want to be clear there is no 1966 Stereo from Track UK , this is a great mix and perhaps sounding as Jimi intended , listening to it plays well and real nice separation. Sounds amazing on both decks and its way better quality than the `Stereo` budget release of AYE on Backtrack 10 issue. 


Jimi Hendrixs  amazing and historic debut album recorded in swinging London 1966/7...Jimi was having a ball being in the centre of the London scene and was blowing away all the competition.

This was recorded October 66 to April 67 in Olympic and De Lane Lea studios in London  this was followed up quickly by "Axis Bold As Love" in the same year as Jimi was required to produce 2 albums for Track in that year, Jimi was playing and recording in London almost every day so this was no problem  for the experience.

The classics are here and super fresh sound on this great audio copy, Foxy Lady opens and there is no let up like his live shows in London at the time the "100 club" "bag o nails" and the Marquee all were the testing grounds for this amazing debut form the all too short career of Jimi Hendrix
Red House was a staple blues in his live set for most of Jims career Fire, Are you Experienced? all are here...recorded in Stereo and released in Stereo for 1st time here on this original  Track UK Press.
Look our other Hendrix items for sale we have a MONO OR STEREO  smash hits also on offer they make a great pair! essentially this was Jimis live set on record at the time " a real time capsule"

Photos of Jimis Mayfair London England residence are not included , it is where some of the songs were written though! also the Royal Mail postbox outside Jimis home is where he posted his postcards home to his Dad Al about his success in London 66 and 67.....

This is a "Nr Excellent  condition " copy

There are some light surface hairlines, small scuffs and  light removal marks under strong light, this is a rare find on the original STEREO Track UK record label
Zero skips or jumps on playback.

The original UK mono copies from 1967 are now also hard to find in this condition you can see £300 in VGC is not unusual , we have a mono copy for sale also please see my other items.

The record is Nr EX condition
Cover also is NR EX good corners no bending

real clean Ex the labels see photos


This is a SUPER RARE `STEREO ADVANCE PROMO COPY` from 81 and sounds awesome and easily our favorite over the later mix stereo copies SUSEQUENTLY RELEASED IN US AND UK in 70s and after

A1 B1 matrixes

This is in Near Excellent shape no writing or stickers on labels and a few spindle lines there are some light lines and removal marks under strong light this is 39 year old vinyl no skips or jumps on our Rega 3 or our super fussy light tracking Kenwood deck.

We play tested this on two different decks our Rega 3 also on our super fussy Kenwood deck with very light tracking and there are no skips or jumps

 
We want to be very clear this is not a "mint or near mint" 39 year old copy, it has been played and should continue to be played and enjoyed as a great vinyl to own.

In Near Ex condition with some surface lines, light scuffs from sleeve removal and general light hairlines,  over the years, bear in mind this is a 39 year old vinyl record! Nice clean post oil crisis vinyl wow ! sound fantastic loud...

See pictures in the listing you can see the light surface lines and scuffs on the record, nothing serious and in keeping with its 39 years life.

There is some light static in quieter passages and intros, but this is not obtrusive to the playback.
 

Plays clear with bright crisp sound may benefit from a professional clean (we don't do this as it's an individual thing) some background static is noticeable in the quieter passages but not many of those here!  Foxy ! Manic Depression, Fire are all incredible on any good deck, wipes the floor with the recent reissues no contest, punchy clear bass and drums.
just the greatest mix in STEREO  if you listen its direct from the Original Studio Stereo recording with some diferences in track times and the mix  compared with the Mono

The Cover
