Nice playing copy of this great progressive psych rock/folk opus from 1968, issued on Elektra. This is the mono UK first pressing with the fully laminated gatefold sleeve, and is getting harder to find in playable condition at a sensible price.
The sleeve has some minor surface damage on the front cover, a little corner and spine wear and minor bend to one corner – while the lyric centrefold is in great shape. Overall it grades VG+.
The vinyl plays through nicely and the music comes over loud and clear. There are some hairlines, scuffs and marks consistent with a 55-year-old piece of vinyl, but the audio is decent: a little surface noise at times and one or two tics, more on Side 2 than Side 1. It grades a solid VG+.
There is a more modern lined white inner sleeve in excellent condition.
The 'rough finish' orange Elektra labels are in excellent shape - no significant wear, damage or writing and barely any spindle wear.
Overall, this is a nice copy with a little room for upgrading.
