ATTENTION FRANK ZAPPA AND 1970s PROGRESSIVE ROCK COLLECTORS!  AFTER MANY YEARS OF COLLECTING,DUE TO A DAUGHTER AT UNIVERSITY,I AM GRADUALLY SELLING OFF OVER THE NEXT FEW WEEKS AND MONTHS SOME HAND PICKED ALBUMS,SINGLES AND RELATED ITEMS. BEING A WELL KNOWN COLLECTOR AND DEALER YOU CAN EXPECT TO SEE SOME AMAZING AND IN SOME CASES VERY HARD TO FIND GEMS-ALL WITH CAREFUL GRADINGS AND IN DEPTH INFORMATION!

HERE IS AN ORIGINAL 1979 STEREO 1ST USA ISSUE EDITION OF THE FRANK ZAPPA ALBUM: 

"ORCHESTRAL FAVOURITES" WHICH WAS NOT A BIG SELLER,FAILING TO CHART IN THE UK AND THE USA WITH PRESSINGS QUITE HARD TO FIND,35 YEARS LATER. UNLIKE THE MAJORITY OF COPIES OF THE 1970s, THIS COPY HAS NOT BEEN PLAYED MUCH AT ALL!  STRICTLY GRADED AS NEAR MINT CONDITION.THERE ARE JUST A COUPLE OF ULTRA FAINT,WIPSY SURFACE MARKS VISIBLE IN VERY STRONG LIGHT WITH GLEAMING SURFACES! HARDLY ANY SURFACE NOISE EVEN AT HIGH VOLUME DURING THE QUIET PASSAGES! THERE IS NO SPINDLE WEAR OR LABEL STAINING/WRITING. WARNER BROTHERS PRESSED DISCREET LABELS: DSK 2294. DURING THE 1970s,RECORDS WERE OFTEN PLAYED A LOT USUALLY USING ANCIENT,HEAVY AND AWFUL EQUIPMENT,SOMETIMES TAKEN TO PARTIES RESULTING IN ALL KINDS OF DAMAGE!-THIS ONE HAS HAD NOT MANY PLAYS WITH NO NASTY DISTORTION AS PRESENT ON THE MAJORITY OF COPIES THAT SURVIVE! NO CLICKS,NO JUMPS,NO STICKS! HARDLY ANY SURFACE NOISE AT ALL!

 THE COVER HAS A COUPLE OF TINY EDGE CREASES,SOME EDGE,SURFACE AND A LITTLE RING WEAR BUT NO WRITING,RIPS OR REPAIRS! EASY TO READ SPINE DETAILS!

WARM SOUNDING VINYL+AMAZING BASS!

GREAT INVESTMENT!!!

TOTALLY FLAT VINYL!  GET IT WHILE YOU CAN!  A LOW,REALISTIC STARTING PRICE OF JUST £12!  READ ON CAREFULLY FOR ALL THE INFORMATION ON THIS GEM OF AN ALBUM!! 

YOU MIGHT FIND CHEAPER COPIES BUT I DOUBT THEY WILL BE AS GOOD AS THIS EXAMPLE! 

YOU'LL LOVE IT FOR YEARS AND HOPEFULLY WILL RETURN TO ME AGAIN!   

SUPERB SOUND PLUS THE ADDED ADVANTAGE OF THE BASS THAT CANNOT BE MATCHED ON CD!!

The previous owner was not a smoker and so this item doesn't stink of that dreadful stale smoke!!!!Lovely pressing!! Warm sound!!.

 I test on a lightweight pickup of approx 2 grammes and listen with the treble full on and no filtering or mono switch used.

As both a collector and dealer,I AM VERY STRICT ON GRADING but DO CHECKOUT MY FEEDBACK FOR GRADING PROOF!!!! .
