ATTENTION THE ROLLING STONES COLLECTORS AND THOSE ON A STRICT BUDGET WANTING TO OWN A CLASSIC LP!  HERE IS AN ORIGINAL 1969 MONO 1ST ISSUE OF THE ROLLING STONES  ALBUM: "LET IT BLEED" WITH THE UNBOXED LOGO LABELS AND HOUSED IN THE RED MONO INNER SLEEVE AND THE DIE CUT HOLE LAMINATED FRONT COVER.

THERE WERE A FEW COPIES THAT HAD A POSTER WITH THEM-NOT WITH THIS ONE BUT THE DISC HAS THE EARLIEST POSSIBLE P-1A/P-1A MATRIXES+VERY THICK VINYL!.

IN 1969 DECCA STARTING PRINTING THE COVERS WITH THE DUAL SYSTEM SHOWING BOTH THE MONO AND STEREO CATALOGUE NUMBERS WITH A DIE CUT HOLE TO ALLOW A RED COLOUR ON THE INNER TO SHOW THROUGH THE HOLE TO DENOTE MONO AND BLUE TO DENOTE THE STEREO VERSION! THIS COVER ALSO HAS THE "UK PATENTS APPLICATIONS NO." TEXT NOT ON EARLIER OR LATER COVERS AND OF COURSE BY 1969 MOST BUYERS HAD SWITCHED TO STEREO MAKING A LOWER DEMAND FOR MONO!

1969 DECCA LK 5025. THE MONO MIXES HAVE A GREAT "PUNCHY" SOUND AND OF COURSE MOST SERIOUS COLLECTORS WILL WANT TO OWN BOTH MONO AND STEREO EDITIONS. LOCATING A REALLY NICE MONO COPY IS ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE AS THE MAJORITY OF COPIES WERE PLAYED OVER AND OVER AGAIN CAUSING DISTORTION AND MAJOR WEAR. THIS COPY HAS SOME SIGNS OF A LOT OF USE WITH QUITE A FEW LIGHT SURFACE/CLEANING TYPE SCUFF MARKS THAT PRODUCE SOME ISOLATED "POPS" AND A FEW CLICKS AS WELL AS SOME CRACKLE MAINLY ON THE QUIETER TRACKS BUT  NOT TOO OBTRUSIVE.NO STICKS OR JUMPS. DECENT GAPFILLER-IDEAL FOR A COLLECTOR ON A LIMITED BUDGET OR EVEN IF YOU HAVE A NICE DISC WITH A POOR COVER AND NO RED MONO INNER. 

THIS WOULD LOOK GREAT FRAMED UP ON THE WALL OF ANY ROLLING STONES FAN!

THE DISC IS VISUALLY STRICTLY GRADED AS GOOD+++++++++ CONDITION BUT MOST OF THE DISC SOUNDS "VG"!.THICK VINYL. SOME SPINDLE WEAR. 

HOUSED IN THE ORIGINAL AND CORRECT RED "MONO" INNER SLEEVE WHICH IS VERY CLEAN WITH NO STAINING,RIPS,WRITING OR REPAIRS! THERE IS THE "FOREIGN PATENTS PENDING" CREDIT DENOTING ONE OF THE FIRST EVER PRINTED FOR THIS LP.      

THE LAMINATED FRONT COVER IS PRINTED BY UPTON PRINTING GROUP AND HAS EASY TO READ SPINE DETAILS. THERE ARE A FEW MINOR CREASES AND A LITTLE STAINING BUT THERE IS NO WRITING,RIPS OR REPAIRS.

  PLEASE SEE ALL THE PHOTOS SHOWING THE FRONT AND BACK OF THE COVER,THE INNER AND BOTH LABELS! NOTHING TO HIDE! A LOW,REALISTIC £12 STARTING PRICE WITH MORE GREAT LPs  FROM ME ON EBAY.

Over the years I have helped to add to the collections of many  collectors and given my experience, I am aware of the titles that are GENUINE RARE ITEMS.

Now of course for those who are"chained"to the record collector price guide books,for whom I am one of the main consultants, the prices are still a SUGGESTION and as we all know ACTUAL prices SOLD can vary.

The sellers on ebay who continually put"listed"or "list price"on everything should be aware of this!!!!     

This is my honest grading!!!

Please see my listening policy below. 

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!!!!
