4 album FREE and related vinyl collection that includes a nice Canadian individually numbered edition of "The Free Story" 2LP set, a couple of studio albums and the CRAWLER s/t album featuring Rabbit Bundrick
All records in the lot are original issues/reissues from the 70s/80s not recent reissues so please do not expect pristine pieces. In every case they are pieces I've picked up at least second hand at fairs, stalls and in collections so all show some signs of age and have been played and enjoyed. Unfortunately I do not have time to individually play test these however you will find release details below along with a visual grading based on the Record Collector Grading System.
TONS OF SOBS (1969 - later reissue) Island ILPS 9089
A later reissue (no year on Discogs) in gatefold sleeve with the orange label.  No EMI Records rim text or copyright warnings. Runouts are PORKY ILPS 9089 A-3U & PECKO ILPS 9089 B-3U
Record : Fair (lots of marks on the album, obviously been played a lot.  Will certainly be surface noise on playback. A side label is scuffed) Cover : Good (Gatefold sleeve is intact although has some ring fade and edge wear, especially to the spine.  Inside cover is really nice.  Small price label on rear.
HEARTBREAKER (1972) Island ILPS 9217
Pink run A2U/B2U STERLING stampers.  Not original inner bag though :-(
Record : G (a number of light marks but looks in a lot better shape than Tons Of Sobs) Cover :  VG (some discolouration due to white cover but not much edge wear.  Small price sticker on front.  "Robor Ltd" cover with pinched spine) (Light blue Island inner bag)
THE FREE STORY (1975) Island ISLD4
Double album Canadian issue of The Free Story in alternate gatefold sleeve, WITH discography insert! Limited edition no. 08264
Records : VG/VG (both records look to have received little play with just the odd light marking) Cover : VG (obviously aged, with ring fade and some scuffs to edge and with small sticker on back sleeve... but all intact with a superb inner gatefold picture and dual language sleevenotes. (generic inner sleeves)
CRAWLER - CRAWLER (1977) Epic 82083
The debut album of Rabbit Bundrick's post Free project who started as Back Street Crawler but shortened their name after death of guitarist Paul Kossoff.
Cover : VG (some scuffing and minor creasing and early signs of ring fade on black areas. Sticker removal mark on front) Record : VG+ (doesn't look to have been played much at all!)
