CAPTAIN BEEFHEART and The Magic Band
UK IST PRESS WITH EX AUDIO !!!!
TIME FOR SOME CAPTAIN BEEFHEART AND HIS MAGIC BAND. FROM GLENDALE CALIFORNIA, THIS IS HIS 8th ALBUM RELEASED IN 1974. AFTER RECORDING THE ALBUM, THE ENTIRE MAGIC BAND QUIT AFTER LACK OF FINANCIAL SUCCESS. THE ALBUM DID NOT SELL VERY WELL, AND EVEN CAPTAINED BEEFHEART DISOWNED THE ALBUM TELLING HIS FANS TO RETURN THE ALBUM. IT TURNED OUT TO BE A GREAT ALBUM, BUT NOT REALISED AT THE TIME, SO THIS IS A UK 1ST PRESS, AND QUITE DIFFICULT TO FIND IN THIS CONDITION. THERE ARE QUITE A FEW ON LATER LABELS, BUT NOT MANY ON THE TWIN VIRGIN LABELS. THIS IS FROM MY TREASURED  PERSONAL VINYL COLLECTION !!!!
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 1974 UK 1ST PRESS  :: V 2015  A-2U  'PN' :: V 2015  B-2U .
PRESSED OF THE FIRST MOTHER :: 1  GD  ::  1  GR .

ON THE 1ST PRESS TWIN VIRGIN LABEL  ::  V 2015 .
COVER :: ORIGINAL EARLIEST 1ST PRESS WITH PINCHED CORNERS ON THE SPINE. THESE EARLIEST COVERS SUFFERED FROM FAINT SPOT STAINS AND MARKS (FOXING), DUE TO THE TYPE OF CARD USED TO PRINT THE COVER, WHICH THIS COVER HAS. THE SPINE AND EDGES ARE SOLID AND IN LOVELY CONDITION, JUST A TINY RUB ON THE CORNERS, AND THE OPENING EDGE IS STILL SHARP. THERE ARE A COUPLE OF AGE RELATED MARKS AROUND THE EDGES AS YOU CAN SEE IN THE PHOTO, AND WITH NOTHING ELSE, I WOULD GRADE  :: EX/EX- .  
VINYL ::  THE VINYL PLAYS WONDERFUL WITH NOTHING NASTY ON THE AUDIO !!!! ON SIDE 1, JUST ONE FAINT TICK IN THE MIDDLE OF TRACK 1, ONE FAINT TICK BETWEEN TRACK 1 AND TRACK 2. ONE LIGHT TICK AT THE END OF TRACK 3, AND ONE TICK IN THE RUN OFFS AT THE END OF THE LAST TRACK . ON SIDE 2, JUST TWO FAINT TICKS AT THE START, AND ONE FAINT TICK IN THE MIDDLE ON TRACK 4, AND THAT'S ALL, SO NO STATIC OR CRACKLE, OR ANYTHING ELSE !!!! VISUALLY UNDER BRIGHT LIGHT THERE ARE JUST SOME FAINT COSMETIC SLEEVE REMOVAL SPIDER WEB THREAD ULTRA FINE LINES, AND ARE HARMLESS. SO WITH NOTHING ELSE, AND I WOULD GRADE THE AUDIO A VERY STRONG  :: EX .  

LABELS ::  NO ISSUES, JUST A NAME WRITTEN ON LABEL 1, SO WILL HAVE TO GRADE  :: EX- .


INNER ::  NO WRITING, OR SPLITS, AND TO BE HONEST NOT SURE IF IT IS THE ORIGINAL, BUT IT HAS ALWAYS BEEN WITH THE VINYL, AND OF COURSE THE VINYL WILL COME IN A NEW POLYLINED INNER ALONG WITH THE ONE ABOVE  :: VG+ .
AFTER ALL THE FUSS ABOUT THIS ALBUM BACK IN THE DAY, IT REALLY IS A GREAT ALBUM, AND GREAT TO LISTEN TO !!!! THANK YOU AS ALWAYS FOR YOUR TIME, ROSE.

DUE TO WHAT IS GOING ON IN OUR CRAZY WORLD, I AM SORRY ALL PACKAGES WILL BE SENT ROYAL MAIL INTERNATIONAL TRACKED WITH A TRACKING NUMBER, WHICH IS SAFEST AND BEST WAY, SO WE CAN TRACK YOUR PACKAGE, 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 !

        TAKE CARE AND BE SAFE !!!!
