ORIGINAL UK EARLIEST EARLIEST 1ST PRESS FROM 1971 ON THE ORIGINAL UK "DAWN DNLS.3019" RECORDS LABEL. I PURCHASED THIS ALBUM IN1971 FOLLOWING SEEING THE BAND LIVE IN ILFORD. IT HASN'T BEEN PLAYED VERY OFTEN AND HENCE IS IN EXCELLENT/NEAR MINT CONDITION. IT IS FROM A SMOKE FREE ENVIRONMENT AND HAS BEEN LOOKED AFTER.

THIS COPY IS AN ORIGINAL UK 1ST PRESS WITH THE "MATT"FOLD OUT COVER AND INCLUDES THE VERY RARE INSERT.

MATRIX: DNLS 3019 A-3 & DNLS 3019 B-3 (STAMPED MATRIXES) ARE THE EARLIEST EVER. A FANTASTIC COPY.

DIFFICULT TO FIND ANOTHER COMPLETE COPY OF THIS RARE HOLY GRAIL PSYCH FOLK LP IN THIS AWESOME CONDITION

RECORD CONDITION: EXCELLENT- (IT HAS BEEN PLAYED AND THERE AREJUST A FEW VERY MINIMAL HAIRLINES UNDER STRONG LIGHT, PLAYS SUPERB)

The vinyl is in a lovely, clean and shiny EXCELLENT condition. Examined under a bright table lamp and there are a fewlight surface marks noticeable, but nothing serious. I have played the whole of both sides and they play fine and sound great. Far better than a cd!

COVER CONDITION: EX (MATT FOLD OUT COVER, THERE IS JUST MINIMAL,NORMAL WEAR' As you can see from the photo's the cover is in excellentcondition - the lettering on the spine is visible - the only small downside isa minor mark where the price once was (top right)


INSERT: EXCELLENT (JUST SOME NORMAL SIGNS OF USE, SEE PICS)


Record Collector Magazine Grading Guide: "MINT: The record itself is in brand new condition with no surface marks or deterioration in sound quality. The cover and any extra items such as the lyric sheet, booklet or poster are in perfect condition. Records advertised as Sealed or Unplayed should be Mint. EXCELLENT: The record shows some signs of having been played, but there is very little lessening in sound quality. The cover and packaging might have slight wear and / or creasing. VERY GOOD: The record has obviously been played many times, but displays no major deterioration in sound quality, despite noticeable surface marks and the occasional light scratch. Normal wear and tear on the cover or extra items, without any major defects, is acceptable. GOOD: The record has been played so much that the sound quality has noticeably deteriorated, perhaps with some distortion and mild scratches. The cover and contents suffer from folding, scuffing of edges, spine splits, discolouration, etc. FAIR: The record is still just playable but has not been cared for properly and displays considerable surface noise; it may even jump. The cover and contents will be torn, stained and / or defaced. POOR: The record will not play properly due to scratches, bad surface noise, etc. The cover and contents will be badly damaged or partly missing. BAD: The record is unplayable or might even be broken, and is only of use as a collection filler."
