The Pretty Things S.F. Sorrow - 1st - EX UK vinyl LP album (LP record)
|
Tracklisting / Additional Info: |
History :-
Working with noted EMI staff producer Norman "Hurricane" Smith (who had engineered the earlier Beatles recordings and produced Pink Floyd's The Piper at the Gates of Dawn) and house engineer Peter Mew, The Pretty Things created one of the great, lasting Psychedelic LPs, following in the vein of The Beatles. The group experimented with the latest sound technology, including the Mellotron and early electronic tone generators, often employing gadgets and techniques devised on the spot by Abbey Road's technicians. The results continue to fascinate to this day.

This is a one previous owner copy, bought from new at the time & seldom played, no doubt stored away for several decades, only to see the light again today. The gatefold sleeve is front laminated with internal flipbacks, & remains a glorious off white. There is some faint creasing or weakening to the laminate around the edges/spine with a few glimpses of ringwear but this is minor. The condition is certainly Excellent, & still looks fantastic to this day, with all text legible including along the spine.
The inner sleeve is free from any wear or splits.
The Labels : -
The labels are the much sought after, rough textured blue & black Columbia variety. There are no marks or wear to the label design & there are barely any spindle marks by the centre hole, indicating very little play. The matrices read:
Side One : XAX 3738-1 Side Two : XAX 3739-1
Vinyl : -
The vinyl has been professionally cleaned & has come up looking sparkling. Upon play testing, there is no distortion & any surface noise during the run-in is kept to an absolute minimum. Under a bright light, there are just a few faint paper scuffs which have no effect on play. The wax still shines as bright as the day it was released.
We have only ever had one Excellent condition original copy of this classic British landmark before. This is a beautiful, very rare, mono original for one serious & lucky collector! Do not miss.
