ORIGINAL 1968 UK 1ST PRESS, YAX 3633-1 / YAX 3634-1, AND PRESSED OFF THE FIRST MOTHER WITH EARLY STAMPERS, 1 GD / 1 O !!!!
THERE ARE FOUR VARIATIONS ON THE 1ST PRESS, BLACK AND BLUE COLUMBIA LABELS, AND THE ONE LISTED BELOW HAS THE 4th LABEL, AS IT HAS, 'LUPUS MUSIC Ltd', UNDER THE LAST SONG TITLE ON SIDE 1 !!!!
NO INTRODUCTIONS NEEDED, AS I THINK YOU KNOW THEIR HISTORY !!!! THIS IS THEIR AMAZING 2nd ALBUM RELEASED ON 28th JUNE 1968, AND ONE OF THE BEST EVER ALBUMS EVER PRODUCED !!!!
BEFORE YOU READ ON, I WOULD QUICKLY LIKE TO MENTION, THIS IS NOT THE SAME ALBUM I SOLD A FEW MONTHS AGO, AS THAT WAS IN GREAT CONDITION. THE ONE LISTED BELOW, I FORGOT I HAD, AND IT DOES PLAY WELL WITH NOTHING SERIOUS, SO YOU WILL HAVE TO READ THE AUDIO DESCRIPTION, AND I HAVE GRADED THE AUDIO AS VERY GOOD, BUT IT COULD HAVE GONE VERY GOOD PLUS, AS YOU WILL READ BELOW. ALSO THE COVER IS ORIGINAL, AND AGAIN ONLY GRADED VERY GOOD, BUT IS SOLID.  DUE TO HOW RARE THESE STEREO 1st PRESSES ARE, THIS IS WHY I AM LISTING THIS ONE, AND IF IT WAS BAD, THEN IT WOULD NOT BE LISTED HERE. TO BE HONEST STILL A GREAT LISTEN, AND SOLID COVER, AND ALSO VERY NICE ORIGINAL INNER. THANK YOU.
AN INTERESTING FACT IS THAT SYD BARRETT STARTED ON THE ALBUM, BUT NEVER  COMPLETED IT, DUE TO ILL HEALTH, SO DAVID GILMOUR WAS RECRUITED, AND THE REST IS ROCK HISTORY !!!!
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 :: YAX 3633-1  ::  YEX 3634-1 .
PRESSED OFF THE FIRST MOTHER WITH EARLY STAMPERS  ::  1  GD  ::  1   O .
ON THE BLACK AND BLUE COLUMBIA LABEL :: SCX 6258 .
COVER ::  ORIGINAL UK FIRST PRESS, FRONT LAMINATED FLIPBACK, PRINTED AND MADE BY GARROD & LOFTHOUSE Ltd, PATENTS PENDING, AND 'FILE UNDER POPULAR' TOP RIGHT CORNER ON THE BACK. SOLID SPINE AND EDGES WITH NO NASTY ISSUES, WITH A SMALL RUB ON THE CORNERS. THREE ARE QUITE A FEW LAMINATE CREASE LINES AROUND THE EDGES WITH SOME LONGER ONES IN THE CORNERS, AND THE OPENING HAS SOME LIGHT FEATHERING, WITH JUST A COUPLE OF TINY TEARS, NOTHING SERIOUS. THE BACK HAS SOME WRITING TOWARDS THE TOP EDGE IN THE MIDDLE. THIS IS STILL A NICE SOLID COVER, AND STILL PRESENTABLE, BUT THE LAMINATE CREASE LINES AND OPENING EDGE, DO LET IT DOWN, SO HONESTLY, IT IS BEST TO LOOK AT ALL THE COVER PHOTOS, WHICH WILL GIVE YOU A FAR BETTER VISUAL DESCRIPTION, AND SO WITH NOTHING ELSE, I WOULD GRADE  :: VG .
VINYL ::  THE GREAT NEWS IS, IT PLAYS WITH NO CRACKLE, STATIC, SKIPS, STICKS, JUMPS, POPS OR CLICKS, AND JUST SOME NON INTRUSIVE FAINT TICKS, WHICH I WILL EXPLAIN IN THE AUDIO DESCRIPTION BELOW ...... ON SIDE 1 :: THERE ARE THREE FAINT TICKS AFTER THE INTRO, THREE FAINT TCKS IN THE MIDDLE AND TWO FAINT TICKS AT THE END OF TRACK 1. THERE ARE FIVE FAINT TICKS AFTER THE START OF TRACK 2, AND ONE SINGLE FAINT TICK AT THE START, AND ANOTHER SINGLE FAINT TICK IN THE MIDDLE OF TRACK 3, AND A FAINT TICK BETWEEN TRACK 3 AND TRACK 4. ON SIDE 2 :: ON TRACK 1 WHICH IS A VERY QUIET TRACK, THERE ARE FIVE FAINT TICKS AT THE START ON THE QUIET INTRO, THEN SOME FAINT TICKS FOR THE NEXT QUARTER OF THE TRACK, WITH SOME MORE IN THE MIDDLE AND A FEW TOWARDS THE END, AND ALTHOUGH QUIET A FEW THEY ARE NOT OVER THE AUDIO, SO STILL FINE TO LISTEN TO. TRACK 2 HAS TWO FAINT TICKS AT THE END, AND TRACK 3HAS TWO FAINT TICKS AT THE START. VISUALLY, UNDER BRIGHT LIGHT, THERE ARE LOTS OF COSMETIC SLEEVE REMOVAL SPIDER WEB THREAD ULTRA FINE LINES, SOME COSMETIC HAIRLINES, FOUR SMALL COSMETIC THIN SCUFF LINES, AND A COUPLE OF TINY COSMETIC MARKS, SO NOT THE BEST LOOKING VINYL UNDER BRIGHT LIGHT, BUT IT DOES PLAY WITH NO NASTY ISSUES, SO STILL ENJOYABLE, AND IF IT DID PLAY BAD, IT WOULD NOW BE A VERY EXPENSIVE FRUIT BOWL. NOW FOR THAT ALL IMPORTANT AUDIO GRADE, SO PLEASE READ THE AUDIO DESCRIPTION AGAIN, IF YOU ARE NOT SURE. REALLY ONLY TRACK 1 ON SIDE 2, HAS A BIT MORE GOING ON, AND I COULD HAVE GRADED THE COMBINED TRACKS AUDIO ON BOTH SIDES AS VG+, BUT TO BE ON THE SAFE SIDE I THINK ONLY FAIR I GRADE THE AUDIO  :: VG . IF YOU ARE HAPPY ABOUT THE VISUAL, AND ALSO THE AUDIO DESCRIPTION, THEN YOU WILL BE HAPPY WHEN YOU PLAY THIS VERY RARE VINYL, AND THIS WILL NOT TURN IN TO A MINTY BY THE VINYL FAIRIES IN THE POST, UNLESS YOU DO HAVE A REAL MAGIC WAND !!!!  
LABELS :: NICE CONDITION, WITH SOME SPINDLE LINES AT THE CENTRE :: EX . 
ORINAL FACTORY EMI INNER :: WITH NO SPLITS, LOVELY AND CLEAN, AND THE VINYL WILL COME IN A NEW POLYLINED INNER ALONG WITH THE ORIGINAL :: EX- .
SUPERB ALBUM AND I THINK IN THEIR TOP THREE BEST ALBUMS. EVERYTHING IS EXPLAINED ABOVE, AND AS ALWAYS I HAVE BEEN AS HONEST AS I POSSIBLY CAN. REALLY HARD TO FIND IN ANY CONDITION, SO IF YOU ARE HAPPY WITH THE LSTING, THEN YOU WILL BE HAPPY WHEN IT ARRIVES !!!! THANK YOU AS ALWAYS FOR YOUR TIME !!!!  ROSE.
