ON OFFER HERE IS THIS GENUINE, ORIGINAL 1973 UK FIRST PRESSING OF THE LANDMARK DOUBLE LP ELECTRIC LADYLAND BY JIMI HENDRIX ON POLYDOR RECORDS, WITH CROSSED OUT TRACK MATRIX NUMBERS.

THIS AMAZING DOUBLE ALBUM IS HOUSED IN IT’S ICONIC LAMINATED GATEFOLD SLEEVE, WITH WHITE TEXT INSIDE. I HAVE NOT SHOWN PHOTOS OF THE FRONT OR BACK OF THIS CLASSIC SLEEVE SO AS NOT TO OFFEND!!

THE SLEEVE

THE INSTANTLY RECOGNISABLE, FULLY LAMINATED GATEFOLD SLEEVE IS IS IN VERY GOOD+ CONDITION WITH ONE SMALL CREASE TO ONE CORNER AND TWO SMALL ONE-INCH TEARS AT THE OPENING (INSIDE ON BACK). OTHERWISE THIS SLEEVE LOOKS MAGNIFICENT. THE EDGES ARE ALL STRAIGHT AND THE SPINE IS PERFECT.

THE VINYL

VISUALLY THE FOUR SIDES OF HEAVY, GLOSSY BLACK VINYL ALL APPEAR TO BE IN EXCELLENT CONDITION AND UNDER BRIGHT LIGHT I CAN ONLY SEE A FEW TINY MARKS. I HAVE CAREFULLY LISTENED TO ALL FOUR SIDES AND CAN CONFIRM THAT THE SOUND QUALITY IS SUPERB THROUGHOUT ALL FOUR SIDES ALTHOUGH I DID DETECT SIX REPEATING CLICKS RIGHT AT THE BEGINNING OF TRACK 3 ON SIDE D. OTHERWISE I NOTED NO OTHER PROBLEMS.

THE LABELS

THE RED POLYDOR LABELS ARE ALL IN EXCELLENT+ CONDITION WITH FEW SLIGHT SPINDLE MARKS.
