BOB DYLAN
Bob Dylan
PRESSED ON HEAVYWEIGHT VINYL !!!!
ORIGINAL 1964 UK PRESS, AND PLAYS BRILLIANT, AND COMES FULLY COMPLETE !!!!
THIS IS AN ORIGINAL CBS 1ST PRESS, ALTHOUGH NOT PRESSED UNTIL 1964 !!!! VERY CONFUSING, BUT IN 1962 WHEN FIRST RELEASED, CBS DID NOT HAVE THEIR OWN PRESSING PLANT UNTIL 1964, SO THE PRESSING JOB WAS DONE BY 'PHILIPS RECORDS', WHICH HAS DIFFERENT MATRIX, TO THE 1964 ORIGINAL CBS PRESS, SO ALTHOUGH NOT REALLY A FIRST PRESS AS THE PHILIPS PRESSINGS WERE, BUT IT IS A CBS FIRST PRESS AT THEIR OWN PRESSING PLANT !!!!
THIS IS 'ROBERT ALLEN ZIMMERMAN', BETTER KNOWN AS BOB DYLAN, AND I THINK YOU KNOW THE REST OF THE STORY, AND IN MY OPINION THE GREATEST PERFORMER OF ALL TIME, AS HIS FIRST ALBUM IN 1962, AND HE MADE AN ALBUM IN 2023, 61 YEARS LATER AND IS STILL PERFORMING TODAY !!!! THIS AMAZING ALBUM COMES 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 1964 UK CBS 1ST PRESS :: 62022 1A1 :: 62022 1B1 .

ON THE CBS LABELS :: BPG 62022 .

COVER ::  ORIGINAL FRONT LAMINATED FLIPBACK MONO, PRINTED AND MADE BY GARROD & LOFTHOUSE Ltd, PATENTS PENDING, AND IN LOVELY CONDITION, WITH NO LAMINATE LIFT, JUST A COUPLE OF SMALL LAMINATE CREASE LINES AROUND THE EDGES. THE BACK IS FREE FROM WRITING, JUST SOME LIGHT AGEING, NOTHING SERIOUS, AND THE OPENING EDGE IS STILL SHARP, SO WITH NOTHING ELSE, I WOULD GRADE  :: VG+/EX- . 

VINYL :: PLAYS BRILLIANT WITH NOTHING NASTY ON THE AUDIO SO WILL BE VERY DIFFICULT TO FIND BETTER, SO NO SKIPS, STICKS OR JUMPS, NO POPS, CLICKS, STATIC OR CRACKLE, SO ALL I HEARD WAS....

ON SIDE 1 :: JUST ONE SINGLE FAINT TICK AFTER THE START OF TRACK 1, AND ONE SINGLE FAINT POP AT THE START OF TRACK 2 .

ON SIDE 2 :: THERE ARE 12 FAINT TICKS ON TRACK 5 FROM THE MIDDLE TOWARDS THE END OF THE TRACK. THEY ARE NOT ALL TOGETHER, AND ARE NOT INTRUSIVE, AND THERE IS A SINGLE FAINT TICK AT THE START OF TRACK 6 .

VISUALLY, AWAY FROM BRIGHT LIGHT THE VINYL LOOKS VERY NICE, AND UNDER BRIGHT LIGHT, THERE ARE A FEW FAINT COSMETIC SLEEVE REMOVAL SPIDER WEB THREAD ULTRA FINE LINES, AND TWO SMALL HAIRLINES ON SIDE 2, WITH THE ONE FROM THE MIDDLE, TO THE END OF TRACK 5, IS MORE NOTICEABLE, WHERE THOSE 12 SPACED OUT TICKS CAN BE FAINTLY HEARD !!!!

SO A BIT AWKWARD TO AUDIO GRADE SO BEST TO SLIT THE GRADE....

ALL TRACKS ON SIDE 1, AND ALL TRACKS ON SIDE 2 (EXCEPT TRACK 5, ON SIDE 2) I WOULD GRADE THE AUDIO ::  EX/EX+ . BUT NEARER TO EX+ !!!!

TRACK 5, ON SIDE 2, I WOULD GRADE THE AUDIO ::  VG+ .

LABELS :: NO ISSUES, LOVELY AND CLEAN, JUST A FEW SPINDLE LINES AT THE CENTRE SEEN UNDER BRIGHT LIGHT ::  EX .

ORIGINAL INNER :: NO SPLITS, OR WRITING AND AGAIN IN LOVELY CONDITION, AND, 'MADE IN GREAT BRITAIN' AND 'PATENTS APPLIED FOR', AND THE VINYL WILL COME IN A NEW BLACK POLYLINED INNER ALONG WITH THE ORIGINAL DESCRIBED ABOVE :: VG+ .

SO THERE YOU HAVE IT, BOB DYLANS FIRST ALBUM, RELEASED ORIGINALLY IN 1962, CONTRACTED OUT TO PHILIPS RECORDS TO PRESS, AS CBS DID NOT HAVE THEIR OWN PRESSING PLANT UNTIL 1964, WHEN THE ALBUM ABOVE WAS PRESS SO AN 1A1 / 1B1 ORIGINAL CBS FIRST PRESSING, AT THEIR OWN PRESSING PLANT !!!!
