THIS DOUBLE LP IS SERIOUSLY RARE AND VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND LIKE THIS - SO DONT MISS OUT ON THIS AMAZING OPPORTUNITY!!!! This is the ORIGINAL Track UK 'Earliest' 1st Pressing from 1968 and is in GREAT condition!!!! The records are pressed on THICK quality vinyl. The Cat. No is 613 008/9 on the ORIGINAL 1st Press 'Matt' Track Labels (see picture) and is a Stereo 1st pressing (there were NO Monos)!!!!

The record labels to BOTH records are in SUPERB condition (see pictures) with NO writing, NO wear, and only a few VERY light spindle marks!!!! The vinyl is in BRILLIANT condition!!!! Most of these 60s Double LPs had been to a lot of wild parties and are usually found totally worn out, and almost unplayable. These records are NOT and Record 1 has NO scratches, only 2 or 3 MEGA light hairlines, only 2 or 3 ULTRA light scufflines, and only a VERY few of the lightest paper scuffs only visible under light!!!! Record 2 has NO scratches, only 2 or 3 VERY light hairlines, only 2 or 3 light scufflines, and only VERY few of the lightest paper scuffs only visible under light!!!! BOTH RECORDS STILL RETAIN THEIR ORIGINAL 'JUST PRESSED' LOOK AND SHINE LIKE NEW!!!! It is great to find that BOTH records play as STUNNINGLY as the visual with NO pops, barely ANY clicks AT ALL, NO sticking, NO jumps, barely ANY crackle AT ALL, and only some VERY slight background sound on the run on grooves & gaps - NOT in the music AT ALL!!!! The sound quality is simply SUPERB with NO groovewear and NO distortion either!!!! BOTH records must grade Very Good++ if not better!!!! WHAT A BRILLIANT SET OF A RECORDS!!!! Believe me these records are NOT overgraded in ANY way!!!! I use STRICT RC grading standards - it is not in my interest not to!!!! Brillant!!!! The records also come in their ORIGINAL 1st Press inner sleeves which are both in BRILLIANT condition!!!! The ULTRA RARE 1st Press 'E.J.Day' FULLY Laminated 'Blue Text' Gatefold Cover is in GREAT condition - and is VERY presentable indeed, with NO major defects AT ALL!!!! It has NO splits, only some very VERY unnoticeable 'touching in' to the VERY edges, NO splits, only slight corner wear (NOT through the colour!), only a few VERY light creases (cover is VERY flat looking!), shiny laminate, and NO writing!!!! There is however some clear evidence of 'touching in' on the outer spinal edge. Of course it is on the spinal edge ONLY, so from face on, it is certainly no big deal!!!! But I cannot picture it (because ebay wont let me under their rules!), and although the main faces of the cover (with the nude ladies) are VERY nice indeed (with shiny laminate!) and the inside of the cover (with the ULTRA RARE BLUE TEXT!) is in BRILLIANT order - the outside spine does have some clear evidence of 'touching in' here from top to bottom. I am trying to be very VERY clear on this - because as I cannot picture it, I do not want to get any returns!!!! Clearly at some point in the past the spine has become worn, and the previous owner attempted to 'improve it' by 'touching it in' here. Most people will of course already know, that a MINT copy of this LP would cost well over £1000, and actually the 'touching in' on the spine, does NOT affect the main faces, and overall this cover looks very VERY decent indeed!!!! And the main faces have far FAR less creasing than is usually found on this Double LP - with BOTH the front & the back of the cover having shiny laminate, and being VERY flat here!!!! The opening edges are also beautifully straight with barely ANY feathering AT ALL!!!! Even the laminated inside of the cover is in GREAT condition with NO grubbyness, NO yellowing, VERY shiny laminate, a few light creases, and NO writing!!!! And although this cover is a VERY decent example indeed, with NO major defects (NO splits, NO rips, NO tears, NO writing, etc!), because I am not allowed to picture the outer cover details, I will ONLY grade the cover Very Good(Minus) (PROPERLY graded, NOT trashed!) if not better - to avoid any disappointment!!!! Though I personally feel that this is a very VERY decent example indeed, especially as the all important main faces are VERY flat looking indeed, and have far FAR less creasing than you usually see!!!! THIS DOUBLE LP IS SERIOUSLY RARE AND VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO LOCATE (ESPECIALLY AS THE 'EARLIEST' 1ST PRESSING EVER MADE!) - SO DONT MISS OUT ON THIS INCREDIBLE OPPORTUNITY!!!!

HAVE A LOOK AT MY PICTURES - I DO MY BEST TO SHOW THE RECORD FROM ALL ANGLES AND MAKE THE PICTURES AS CLEAR AS POSSIBLE - THERE IS NOTHING TO HIDE!!!! It really is a GREAT looking LP and it is truly rare to find any copies of this MEGA RARE DOUBLE LP!!!! THIS WILL BE YOUR ONLY CHANCE TO BUY AN ORIGINAL 1968 UK 'EARLIEST' 1ST PRESSING OF "ELECTRIC LADYLAND" BY THE JIMI HENDRIX EXPERIENCE, IN GREAT CONDITION!!!!
