BLUES HELPING
STEREO

PLAYS WITH EX/EX- AUDIO !!!!
BEFORE YOU READ ON, I WOULD LIKE TO MENTION THAT THERE IS A LONG HARMLESS SCUFF LINE ON SIDE 2, AS I ACCIDENTLY DROPPED THE VINYL AND IT CAUGHT THE SIDE OF THE COVER, AND THE GOOD NEWS IS, THERE IS NO DAMAGE TO THE GROOVES, SO PLAYS WITH NO ISSUES !!!!


TIME FOR SOME LOVE SCULPTURE, WHO WERE A WELSH ROCK BLUES BAND FROM CARDIFF FROM 1966 TO 1970, WITH DAVE EDMUNDS, JOHN DAVID, AND ROB 'CONGO' JONES, WHO IS FROM MY HOME TOWN OF BARRY. THIS IS THEIR DEBUT ALBUM RELEASED IN 1968, AND A BRILLIANT ROCK BLUES ALBUM, AND COMES FROM MY PERSONAL VINYL COLLECTION !!!!

THE FRONT IS IN NICE CONDITION, WITH LOVELY LAMINATE, JUST SOME LAMINATE CREASE LINES AROUND THE EDGES. THE BACK HAS THE TRACK TIMES WRITTEN IN, AND NEXT TO THE, PCS 7059, THERE IS SOME TAPE. THERE ARE ALSO SOME AGE RELATED MARKS, AND I THINK IT IS BEST TO LOOK AT THE PHOTOS, FOR A FAR BETTER VISUAL DESCRIPTION, THANK YOU. THERE IS NOTHING ELSE AND I WOULD GRADE BETTER THAN VG, SO  :: VG/VG+ . VINYL  :: THE VINYL PLAYS REALLY WELL WITH NOTHING NASTY OR INTRUSIVE, SO NO SKIPS, STICKS, JUMPS, CLICKS, OR CRACKLE !!!! ALL I HEARD WAS .... SIDE 1 :: ONE SINGLE FAINT TICK IN THE MIDDLE OF TRACK 3, A SINGLE LIGHT TICK BETWEEN TRACK 3 AND TRACK 4, FOUR FAINT TICKS AT THE START OF TRACK 5 AND TWO FAINT TICKS AT THE START OF TRACK 6. ON SIDE 2 :: A BIT OF FAINT STATIC ON THE RUN IN TO TRACK 1, ONE SINGLE FAINT TICK AFTER THE START OF TRACK 2, AND FOUR FAINT TICKS IN THE MIDDLE OF TRACK 3. THERE ARE ALSO A COUPLE OF FAINT TICKS BETWEEN A COUPLE OF TRACKS. DOES SOUND A LOT GOING ON BUT I CAN ASSURE YOU THERE IS NOTHING LOUD OR INTRUSIVE, AND NOTHING TO SPOIL YOUR LISTENING PLEASURE !!!!
VISUALLY, AWAY FROM BRIGHT LIGHT THE VINYL LOOKS FINE, WITH A MORE NOTICEABLE THIN NON FEELABLE SCUFF LINE THAT STARTS IN THE MIDDLE OF TRACK 1 AND ENDS IN THE MIDDLE OF TRACK 5. THIS AS MENTIONED ABOVE IS WHEN I DROPPED THE VINYL AND IT CAUGHT THE EDGE OF THE COVER. NOW IT HAS NOT DAMAGED THE GROOVES, BUT PLEASE READ THE AUDIO DESCRIPTION ON SIDE 2, THANK YOU. THERE ARE ALSO SOME COSMETIC SLEEVE REMOVAL SPIDER WEB THREAD ULTRA FINE LINES, AND A FEW SMALL COSMETIC HAIRLINES. THERE IS NOTHING ELSE, AND I WOULD GRADE THE AUDIO  :: EX/EX- .  AND HONESTLY IT STILL IS A GREAT VINYL TO LISTEN TO !!!!
LABELS :: NICE AND CLEAN, WITH JUST SOME SPINDLE LINES AT THE CENTRE SEEN UNDER BRIGHT LIGHT :: EX .


ORIGINAL FACTORY INNER :: THERE IS A SMALL SEAM SPLIT IN THE MIDDLE ON ONE SIDE EDGE, A BIT OF CELLO TAPE ON THE OTHER SIDE EDGE IN THE MIDDLE, AND A BIT OF WRITING BOTTOM LEFT CORNER, ON ONE SIDE ONLY, AND THE VINYL WILL COME IN A NEW POLYLINED INNER, ALONG WITH THE ORIGINAL DESCRIBED ABOVE  :: EX- .
SO THERE YOU HAVE IT, AN ORIGINAL 1968 VERY EARLY UK 1ST PRESS RARER STEREO. SO TO SUM UP, ORIGINAL COVER WITH SOME AGEING ON THE BACK. THE VINYL VISUALLY UNDER BRIGHT LIGHT THERE ARE SOME COSMETICS, AND ALSO A LONG COSMETIC SCUFF LINE ON SIDE 2. THE AUDIO PLAYS AS DESCRIBED, BUT HONESTLY IT DOES SOUND AND PLAY WITH NOTHING NASTY OR INTRUSIVE. OF COURSE THE POSTAL FAIRIES WILL NOT CHANGE IT INTO A MINTY IN THE POST, BUT IF YOU ARE HAPPY WITH WHAT YOU HAVE SEEN AND READ, THEN YOU WILL BE HAPPY WHEN IT ARRIVES !!!! 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 !
