PRETTY THINGS Parachute (Beautiful condition & archive quality 1970 first UK issue 13-track stereo vinyl LP on the Harvest label with no EMI boxed logo & 'Gramophone Co' perimeter text, recorded at Abbey Road with Beatles engineer Norman Smith, this a magical album more subtle than its predecessor, including The Good Mr. Square, Grass & She's A Lover.

This is a one previous owner copy & has not seen light of day since release. We know this because the record comes from an archive collection of late sixties to early seventies rock records, that were bought from new at the time, but for what we can only assume was collector's habit, & the often male mentality of never playing the record & keeping it mint as possible!

Sleeve :-

The gatefold sleeve is front laminated & the colours are still jaw-dropping, rich & vivid. You just never see this record in any condition close to mint! There is barely any signs of shelf wear & no blemishes or anything of concern. We are all in awe of this copy in the office!

Inner Sleeve :-

The inner sleeve is the plain die-cut poly lined variety, not the standard Harvest catalogue edition [not all copies were sold with them!]. What's particularly nice is that it's one previous owner has carefully attached period newspaper review clippings to it. Very tastefully done & a clear indication of the respect the owner had for the record as a collectable & not a party piece!

Vinyl :-

The matrices in the dead wax are A2/B2, indicating first press. The labels are pristine with no marks. The wax is super clean & the vinyl looks like it may have only ever seen a turntable the once!

Unrepeatable. One only!
