As previously stated there has been much confusion between this original first pressing and the later 1972 issue with a very similar label design. The only way to tell the two apart is the minor label differences.
The later issue has the timings of the songs in brackets and the text 'Island Records Ltd' on the right hand side of the label next to the publishing date, while this first issue has the song timings left open (no brackets). The later issue also has Joe Boyd's production credit printed on two lines rather than just the one, and removes the 'stereo' notation.
Both issues are found with -1 matrix numbers in the run out groove.
The machine stamped matrix numbers are:
ILPS 9134 A -1U
ILPS 9134 B -1U
The 'pinched spine' sleeve was manufactured by EJ Day and has a matte textured finish with the Island 'i' logo and Basing Street address printed by the bottom edge on the reverse and is complete with original blue inner with pink 'i' logo and address.
The sleeve is graded Very Good, and shows some light signs of ringwear with scuffing, mainly to the spine & edges, whilst all text is legible and the colours are all still bright and clear. This also has some 'Birthday Wishes' writting on the back.
The vinyl is strictly graded Excellent. The disc has been professionally cleaned & play tested. It plays through with no distortion & just a little ambient surface noise on occasion which doesn't detract from Drake's soothing vocal delivery. The beauty of his voice & the album's arrangements shine through loud & clear. Visually there is one tiny hairline to Side 2 but the vinyl still shines through with a satisfying sheen.
We thoroughly enjoyed play grading this classic. Graded conservatively, any fan should still be delighted with this example. We hardly ever see a genuine first issue!
