On offer here is a VERY rare LP (especially in this condition!!!!)
by Parrish & Gurvitz called "Parrish & Gurvitz" and is
an ORIGINAL 1971 UK 1st Pressing on the 1st Press Regal Zonophone label!!!!
THIS LP IS SERIOUSLY RARE AND VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND!!!! THIS IS
ONE OF THE RAREST LPs ON THE REGAL ZONOPHONE LABEL - AND VIRTUALLY NEVER TURNS
UP FOR SALE!!!! JUST TRY AND FIND ANOTHER ONE!!!! BACK IN 1971 WHEN
THIS LP WAS FIRST RELEASED - IT ONLY EVER SOLD IN ABSOLUTELY TINY
AMOUNTS, AND WAS ALMOST IMMEDIATELY DELETED!!!! AS A RESULT IT IS
SERIOUSLY RARE AND INCREDIBLY HARD TO LOCATE TODAY!!!! AND THIS LP IS MADE EVEN RARER STILL - AS IT IS THE HARDEST LP ON THE REGAL ZONOPHONE LABEL TO FIND IN TOP CONDITION!!!! IT SOLD TERRIBLY ON RELEASE, AND WAS MADE WITH A GATEFOLD UNLAMINATED 'TEXTURED' COVER. NOW IT IS HARD ENOUGH TO FIND AN LP WITH THIS COVER TYPE IN TOP CONDITION ON A LARGE SELLING LP. BUT THIS LP SOLD VIRTUALLY NOTHING - AND IN ALL MY YEARS OF COLLECTING AND SELLING RECORDS, I HAVE NEVER EVER SEEN ANOTHER 1ST PRESSING THAT COMES EVEN CLOSE TO THE TOP CONDITION OF THIS AMAZING 1ST PRESSING!!!! YOU COULD SEARCH FOR YEARS AND YEARS AND NEVER FIND ONE AS GOOD AS THIS ONE IS - IT IS TRULY AWESOME!!!!
AND I HAVE NEVER UNDERSTOOD WHY THIS LP ISN'T THE MOST SOUGHT AFTER LP ON THE REGAL ZONOPHONE LABEL? IT IS JUST AS RARE AS ANY OTHER LP ON THE LABEL - AND THE MUSIC IS TRULY AWESOME!!!! I THINK MANY PEOPLE JUST ASSOCIATE THIS LP IS THE BAKER GURVITZ ARMY EFFORTS WHICH CAME LATER (AND DON'T TAKE THE TIME TO LISTEN TO THIS LP) - BUT THIS LP IS NOTHING LIKE THAT AT ALL!!!! ANYONE WHO WANTS AN ENTRY INTO THIS LP - SHOULD TAKE A GOOD LISTEN TO THE TRULY AMAZING GUITAR WORK ON "ANOTHER TIME, ANOTHER DAY / TAKE WHAT YOU WANT" (THIS IS ONE TRACK) - AND YOU'LL IMMEDIATELY WONDER WHY THIS LP ISN'T MORE SOUGHT AFTER THAN IT ALREADY IS!!!! IT IS A TRULY STUNNING LP, WITH AWESOME MUSIC - AND THE CHANCES OF EVER FINDING ANOTHER 1ST PRESSING AS NICE AS THIS ONE IS - ARE VIRTUALLY ZERO!!!!
THIS LP IS MADE EVEN RARER STILL - AS IT IS QUITE LITERALLY THE 'EARLIEST' 1ST PRESSING EVER MADE, WITH A-1 B-1 MATRIXES & 1G/1G MOTHER & STAMPER CODINGS (THE EARLIEST POSSIBLE!)!!!!
NOT ONLY THAT BUT THIS LP IS IN ABSOLUTELY AWESOME CONDITION - AND HAS BARELY BEEN PLAYED AT ALL!!!! JUST TAKE A LOOK AT THE PICTURES!!!! THIS IS THE ORIGINAL 1971 UK 1ST PRESSING ON THE 1ST PRESS REGAL ZONOPHONE LABEL, 1ST PRESS A-1 B-1 MATRIX ENDINGS, 'EARLIEST' 1ST PRESS 1G/1G MOTHER & STAMPER CODINGS, 1ST PRESS INNER SLEEVE, AND 1ST PRESS 'GARROD & LOFTHOUSE' GATEFOLD 'TEXTURED' COVER!!!! THIS LP IS SERIOUSLY RARE AND VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND LIKE THIS - SO DONT MISS OUT ON THIS AMAZING OPPORTUNITY!!!! This is the ORIGINAL Regal Zonophone UK 1st Pressing from 1971 and is in AWESOME condition!!!! The record is pressed on THICK quality vinyl. The Cat. No is SRZA 8506 on the ORIGINAL 1st Press Regal Zonophone label (see picture) and is a UK Stereo 1st Pressing (there were NO Monos!)!!!!
The record labels are in SUPERB condition (see pictures) with NO wear, NO writing, and barely ANY spindle marks AT ALL!!!! IT IS VERY CLEAR THAT THIS RECORD HAS BARELY BEEN PLAYED AT ALL!!!! The vinyl is in AWESOME condition!!!! Most of these 60s/70s LPs had been to a lot of wild parties and are usually found totally worn out, and almost unplayable. This one is NOT and has NO scratches, NO hairlines, NO scufflines, and only a VERY few of the lightest paper scuffs only visible under light!!!! ITS AS SIMPLE AS THAT!!!! THE RECORD STILL RETAINS ITS ORIGINAL 'JUST PRESSED' LOOK AND LOOKS AMAZING!!!! It is also great to find that the record plays as STUNNINGLY as the visual with NO pops, NO sticking, NO jumps, and barely ANY crackle AT ALL!!!! The sound quality is simply SUPERB with NO distortion and NO groovewear either!!!! The record must grade MINT(Minus)!!!! AWESOME RECORD!!!! Believe me this record is NOT overgraded in ANY way!!!! I use STRICT RC grading standards - it is not in my interest not to!!!! Brillant!!!! The record also comes in its ORIGINAL 1st Press inner sleeve which is in SUPERB condition - and still FULLY 'poly-lined'!!!! The ORIGINAL 1st Press 'Garrod & Lofthouse' Gatefold 'Textured' Cover is in absolutely STUNNING condition - and for once has absolutely NO RUBBING AT ALL!!!! It has NO edge wear, NO spinal wear, barely ANY corner wear AT ALL (NOT through the colour!), NO sticker marks, NO sticker tears, only 1 small light crease in the bottom left corner on the cover back, NO corner bumping AT ALL, barely ANY creases AT ALL elsewhere (cover is VERY flat looking indeed!), only some very VERY minor evidence of 'tipping in' to the corner tips, NO ringwear, NO rubbing, NO annotations, and NO writing!!!! The opening edges are beautifully straight with barely ANY feathering AT ALL!!!! Even the 'textured' inside of the cover is in AWESOME condition with NO grubbyness, NO yellowing, NO rubbing, NO ringwear, and NO writing!!!! The cover must grade Excellent++++ if not better!!!! AWESOME COVER!!!! THIS LP IS SERIOUSLY RARE AND VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND LIKE THIS - SO DONT MISS OUT ON THIS INCREDIBLE OPPORTUNITY!!!!

Though there are rarely ever any problems with my items (I always try my very best to describe everything exactly!) - PLEASE REMEMBER to contact with me FIRST, if you have any problems at all, before you leave feedback and star ratings, so I get a chance to turn any negative experience into a positive one! I can always happily sort anything out for you, if you let me know you have a problem! This way no one has to leave Negative/Neutral feedback - and we both walk away happy! Please do NOT bid if you cannot give me at least 1 chance to sort everything out to your FULL satisfaction in the unlikely event of a problem. Thanks again - Graham @ XXXRecords. PLEASE NOTE - Private feedback bidders must consult me first prior to bidding - due to previous problems regarding non-payment, and non-receipt. MY POSTAGE UNDERCHARGE GUARANTEE TO ALL BUYERS (I always undercharge on postage!):- Due to UK Royal Mail's obscene price increases this year - I have had no choice but to increase postage charges a little. Until this year - I had kept them exactly the same since I joined ebay back in 2002. However this years price increases have been so obscene, that I have had no choice but to increase my postage charges for the first time ever. However PLEASE NOTE - my absolute 100% guarantee to you as a buyer - is that I will ALWAYS undercharge postage on everything I send out. Even after the increases, I am still charging you the buyer LESS than I am being charged myself. On each package I send out - the price is clearly stated on the front of the package (please check it when you recieve it!). I also do NOT charge for packaging costs - ONLY for postal costs! And should you find that I have overcharged you postage in ANY way - I will refund DOUBLE the difference. THAT IS MY 100% POSTAL GUARANTEE FOR EACH AND EVERY BUYER! No buyer EVER deserves to be overcharged on postage - and on my listings, I'll make sure they are ALWAYS undercharged. Any questions - please ask!
