THE KINKS

THEIR DEBUT ALBUM !!!!

THIS IS AN ORIGINAL 1964 UK 1ST PRESS .

ON HEAVYWEIGHT VINYL .

ORIGINAL MATRIX A 1T : B 1T . BUT CORRECTED TO : A 2T : B 2T .

ON THE PINK PYE LABEL :: NPL.18096 . 

COVER :: ORIGINAL FRONT LAMINATED FLIPBACK PRINTED AND MADE BY GARROD & LOFTHOUSE, PATENTS PENDING :: SOLID SPINE AND EDGES, WITH NO RUB . THERE ARE QUITE A FEW SMALL LAMINATE CREASE LINES AROUND THE EDGES WHICH ALSO WRAP AROUND THE EDGES AND SPINE, WITH OPENING EDGE STILL SHARP :: THERE ARE SOME LAMINATE CREASE LINES IN THE CORNERS AND ALONG OPENING EDGE :: THE BACK IS A BIT GRUBBY WITH SOME WRITING ( PLEASE SEE PHOTO ) . THERE ARE NO SPLITS AND ALL FLIP BACKS ARE SECURE, AND WITH NO OTHER ISSUES :: VG- .

VINYL :: FIRSTLY I MUST TELL THAT THE VINYL UNDER BRIGHT LIGHT HAS LOTS OF SLEEVE REMOVAL WHISPY SPIDER WEB THREAD ULTRA FINE LINES, LOTS OF VARIOUS HAIRLINES AND A COUPLE OF THIN SCUFF LINES. YOU CAN ANGLE THE VINYL AWAY FROM LIGHT AND THE MARKS DISAPPEAR, BUT NOT FOR GOOD, AS THEY DO COME BACK, SO THIS SHOWS THAT THERE ARE NO NASTY MARKS OR SCRATCHES SO  THERE ARE NO STICKS, SKIPS OR JUMPS, ANYWHERE !!!!

THE AUDIO PLAYS THROUGH WITH NO SERIOUS PROBLEMS AND THERE IS NOTHING INTRUSIVE AND IS STILL VERY ENJOYABLE TO LISTEN TO. ALTHOUGH THIS IS NOT ONE FOR THE PURIST OF VINYL COLLECTORS, BUT IT STILL PLAYS NICE. THERE ARE PARTS OF LIGHT BACKGROUND STATIC ON MOST TRACKS AND THE OCCASSIONAL SOFT BACKGROUND TICK. SOME TRACKS PLAY WELL WITH MINIMAL BACKGROUND STATIC...........IF IT WAS RUBBISH IT WOULD NOT BE LISTED HERE !!!!! THERE IS ALSO LIGHT STATIC AND SOME SOFT TICKS BETWEEN MOST TRACKS.

VISUALLY IT WOULD NOT WIN A BEAUTY PRIZE, BUT THERE ARE NO SERIOUS MARKS AND GRADES VISUALLY UNDER BRIGHT LIGHT :: VG . THE AUDIO AS I SAID IS STILL GREAT TO LISTEN TO AND WITH NO SERIOUS PROBLEMS, I WOULD GRADE THE AUDIO :: VG/VG- . A RARE AND VERY COLLECTABLE PIECE OF VINYL !!!!

LABELS ::  THERE ARE QUITE A FEW SPINDLE LINES AT THE CENTRE SEEN WHEN ANGLED AT LIGHT, AND SOME BIRO SCRIBBLES ( PLEASE SEE PHOTOS ) ::  VG- .

ORIGINAL PYE POLYLINED INNER :: NO WRITING, BUT THERE IS A SMALL SEAM SPLIT IN THE MIDDLE ON THE BOTTOM EDGE AND A TINY ONE IN THE MIDDLE ON SIDE EDGE :: VG .

IF YOU ARE AFTER A 1ST PRESS DEBUT KINKS ALBUM, AND NOT TO BOTHERED ON LOOKS AND DO NOT MIND SOME BACKGROUND STATIC AND THE OCCASSIONAL SOFT TICKS, THEN YOU WILL HAVE YOURSELF A BARGAIN, AND AS I SAID IT IS STILL ENJOYABLE TO LISTEN TO.

NICE START PRICE !!!!
