JIIMI HENDRIX EXPERIENCE
                      SMASH HITS

UK 1ST PRESS, AND PLAYS WITH EX/EX+ AUDIO !!!!
STEREO
BEFORE YOU READ ON, I WOULD LIKE TO OFFER A FREE MONO ORIGINAL UK 1ST PRESS OF THE SAME ALBUM WHICH YOU WILL RECEIVE WITH THE STEREO ONE LISTED BELOW, THANK YOU!!!!
DURING THE 1960's STEREO VINYL WAS A THING OF THE FUTURE, SO A LOT OF MONO VINYLS WERE REPROCESSED TO CREATE A STEREO SOUND. OF COURSE AT THE TIME THEY SOUNDED GREAT, BUT IF YOU PLAY AN ORIGINAL MONO AFTER PLAYING THE STEREO REPROCESSED VERSION THERE IS A BIG DIFFERENCE. TO HIGHLIGHT THIS, I AM GIVING AWAY A FREE MONO 1ST PRESS WHICH WILL COME WITH THE STEREO ONE LISTED BELOW. I WILL TELL YOU A BIT MORE AFTER THE STEREO DESCRIPTION, THANK YOU !!
I WOULD IMAGINE YOU KNOW THE STORY ABOUT JIMI HENDRIX, SO ON WITH THE LISTING !!!!
DISCLAIMER :: ALL MY LP'S LISTED ON THIS SITE ARE ORIGINAL AND NOT FAKE OR COUNTERFEIT, AND ARE SOLD IN GOOD FAITH. THEY WERE BOUGHT ON THE DATE OF ISSUE. THANK YOU !!
THIS IS AN ORIGINAL 1968 UK 1ST PRESS  ::  613 004 A*V1  11 3 ::  613 004 BV1  11 1 .
ON THE TRACK RECORDS LABEL  ::  613 004 .

COVER ::  ORIGINAL 1ST PRESS FRONT LAMINATED STEREO, WITH SOLID SPINE AND EDGES, WITH A TINY RUB ON THE CORNERS, AND NO LAMINATE LIFT, JUST A FEW WRAP AROUND LAMINATE CREASE LINES ON THE SPINE EDGE, AND SOME LAMINATE CREASE LINES AROUND THE EDGES, AND THE OPENING EDGE IS STILL SHARP. THE BACK HAS NO WRITING BUT THERE ARE SOME AGE RELATED MARKS, AND BEST TO LOOK AT THE PHOTO FOR A FAR BETTER VISUAL DESCRIPTION !!!! THERE IS NOTHING ELSE AND I WOULD GRADE  :: VG .

VINYL ::  LOVELY AUDIO, WITH NOTHING NASTY ON THE AUDIO !!!!

ONE SIDE 1, THERE IS A BIT OF FAINT STATIC ON THE RUN IN, A FAINT TICK IN THE MIDDLE OF TRACK 2, AND A BIT OF FAINT STATIC BETWEEN TRACKS 2 AND 3, AND ALSO TRACKS 3 AND 4, SO NOT ON THE ACTUAL AUDIO !!!!

WHILE ON SIDE 2, A BIT OF FAINT STATIC ON THE RUN IN, AND A FAINT TICK ON THE LAST TRACK !!!!

VISUALLY, NOTHING TO WORRY ABOUT, AS THE VINYL STILL HOLDS A LOVELY SHINE WITH JUST SOME FAINT COSMETIC SLEEVE REMOVAL SPIDER WEB THREAD ULTRA FINE LINES, AND A COUPLE OF TINY HARMLESS COSMETIC MARKS, SEEN UNDER BRIGHT LIGHT. SO WITH NOTHING ELSE, I WOULD GRADE THE AUDIO  :: EX/EX+ . BUT I WOULD SAY NEARER TO EX !!!!

LABELS :: LOVELY CLEAN CONDITION, WITH JUST SOME LIGHT SPINDLE LINES AT THE CENTRE SEEN WHEN ANGLED AT LIGHT :: EX .

INNER ::  NO SPLITS OR WRITING, JUST SOME AGEING  :: VG+ .

AT THIS POINT I WOULD BE SUMMING UP, BUT I STILL HAVE TO EXPLAIN THE FREE MONO 1ST PRESS COPY THAT YOU WILL RECEIVE WITH THIS STERO VERSION !!!!

I HAVE LOVED MUSIC ALL MY LIFE, AND TO HEAR THE CONTRAST BETWEEN THE 1960's STEREO REPROCESSED VERSION, FROM MONO TO STEREO, TO THE ACTUAL ORIGINAL UNTOUCHED MONO PRESS IS STAGGERING, SO PLEASE PLAY THE STEREO VERSION FIRST, AND THEN THE MONO, AND YOU WILL BE SHOCKED, AND SOMETHING TO REMEMBER WHEN LOOKING FOR 1960's STEREO AND MONO VINYLS, AS THERE IS A BIG DIFFERENCE, UNTIL THEY COULD PRESS REAL STEREO VINYLS !!!!

NOW FOR THE FREE MONO ALBUM......THE MONO COVER IS SLIGHLY BETTER THAN THE STEREO COVER, AND I WOULD GRADE :: VG+.

THE FAR SUPERIOR MONO AUDIO, PLAYS WELL APART FROM THE LAST TRACK ON SIDE 2, WHICH I WILL EXPLAIN BELOW.

SIDE 1, THERE IS A FAINT TICK IN THE MIDDLE OF TRACK 1.

WHILE ON SIDE 2, A FAINT TICK BETWEEN TRACK 3 AND TRACK 4. THE LAST TRACK HAS A SMALL SLIGHTLY FEELABLE SCRATCH THAT RUNS WITH THE GROOVES, AND ALSO ACROSS SOME GROOVES. THE AUDIO PLAYS THROUGH BUT THERE ARE SOME TICKS, A POP, A HISS, SO I WOULD ONLY AUDIO GRADE AS :: GOOD, FOR THE LAST TRACK..... THE REST OF THE AUDIO I WOULD GRADE A LOVELY EX+ !!!! 

VISUALLY THE SAME AS THE STEREO VERSION, BUT THERE ARE 6 LONGER HAIRLINES ON SIDE 1, WHICH ARE HARMLESS, AND THAT SMALL SLIGHTLY FEELABLE SCRATCH THAT RUNS WITH THE GROOVES, AND ALSO ACROSS SOME GROOVES, ON THE LAST TRACK ON SIDE 2.

COMES WITH VERY NICE LABELS, AND UNSPLIT INNER !!!!

SO JUST TO RECAP, YOU ARE JUST BIDDING ON A STEREO UK 1ST PRESS 1968 WITH STEREO COVER AND ALL EXPLAINED ABOVE, AND THE ORIGINAL 1968 UK 1ST PRESS MONO, YOU WILL GET FOR FREE, WHICH PLAYS BRILLIANT, APART FROM THE LAST TRACK, ON SIDE 2 !!!! THANK YOU AS ALWAYS FOR YOUR TIME !! ROSE.

ANY QUESTIONS PLEASE ASK, THANK YOU !!!!

IF SLEEVE REMOVAL AND HAIRLINES ARE MENTIONED, THEN THEY ARE TOTALLY COSMETIC AND HARMLESS, AND THESE ARE NOT SCRATCHES, AS YOU WILL KNOW SCRATCHES ARE FEELABLE AND CAUSE AUDIO PROBLEMS, SO IF THERE WERE ANY SCRATCHES, I WOULD MENTION THEM, THANK YOU !
