This three album set contains some of the greatest work George Harrison composed and recorded. There are so many beautiful tracks on this album, including two of his biggest hits as a solo artist. In addition, you get to hear Harrison at his guitar playing best. Were you aware that Rolling Stone ranked him as the 11th best rock guitarist of all time? He was perhaps often overshadowed with the Beatles, but this was definitely a talented musician. You need look no further than this incredible collection to validate that. I love listening to this album because every time I do I remember what a beautiful set it is. It is one of the very few triple albums that has no wasted wax. The set was released on Apple in 1970, number STCH-639. This is the original release of the album set. It includes the poster which appears to have never been unfolded; certainly never displayed. The vinyl is in exceptional condition with its bright original luster and just a few light surface scratches and scuffs. It plays beautifully with just very light sporadic background noise. The vinyl grades VG. The set is presented as a box set. The box is still connected in one piece with the spine still intact. It shows wear on the seams and one the front. The set comes with the original album sleeves with song lyrics. There is a name written on the inside of the box. The box grades VG.

Grading Information I always clean and then listen to every record I list on eBay. I do this to make sure I can give as accurate a description of each record as possible. I will do both a visual check and an audio check. I absolutely attempt to give as objective a grading as I can. I don’t ever want you to be disappointed in the quality of the album you receive. My promise is that I will never put up for auction any album that I would not be proud to play for others on my own turntable.
I only use four grades in my grading: NM, VG+, VG, and G. The only exception is a sealed album which is presumed to have vinyl in mint condition. My NM grading means that the vinyl looks and plays as though it is the first time out of the sleeve. The VG+ rating is used on any album that plays great but has one or more small defects. It may have a pop here and there or some occasional background static. On a VG album you can expect that, typically, this album will play great, but you’ll see more defects on this than your VG+ rated album. Most often the VG rated album may even play well enough to be graded VG+, but the color or blemishes drop the grading. Likewise, you may occasionally find an album that looks almost NM but the sound quality just isn’t there. That’s why I play every album first, because this does happen. In this case the vinyl will be graded VG. Very occasionally I will list an album with a grade of G. This is one where I consider the collectible value of the album to be great enough that the copy being presented is worth having as a filler copy.
Shipping Information – Combined Shipping Shipping is $4.00 in the continental U.S. I happily combine records from multiple auctions to reduce total shipping cost. In fact, I welcome it! The $4.00 cost for U.S. shipping applies regardless of the number of auctions won in any 5-day period.
Canada shipping is calculated based on weight using US Postal Service rates. Combined shipping is also welcomed here and does result in significant per-album cost savings. Canada shipping rates have gone up dramatically. The first album will be shipped for $15. Additional albums will be shipped for $4 per album, with up to five albums able to be shipped before we need to use International Priority shipping. At that point we will work together on final determination of shipping cost.
The Canada cost determination also applies for all other International shipping, except that the first album is shipped for $20 and each subsequent is just an additional $5.00.
All albums will be shipped in specially designed album hard cardboard mailers with a cardboard insert to prevent damage upon opening. The vinyl is removed from the cover and presented in a new poly sleeve. I am committed to one day turnaround on shipments. If I receive payment before 7:00 AM Central Time I will package and ship that same day. Payment by Paypal is preferred.
Thanks for looking and please contact me with any questions.
