Many believe this album was the very first heavy rock album of all time, it certainly was a far cry from the Yardbirds and the Graham Bond Organisation. This particular copy is one of the best you'll ever find, as the cover of this LP is only laminated up to the edge of the spine. Most spines have so much wear that the bands name and title are often rubbed away. As you can see from the pictures, this LP both the vinyl and the cover, have survived remarkably well, considering the way most LP's were treated in the 60's, especially great albums like this one as most were either written on or taken to parties where they got damaged and played to death. 'Fresh Cream' was released in December 1966 and was recorded at Rayrik Studios and Ryemuse Studios in London, between July-October 1966. This is the first LP release of Robert Stigwood's new independent label Reaction Records a ndwas released in the UK as both a MONO and STEREO version on the 9th December 1966,the same time as the single release ‘I Feel Free’. PRODUCTION: Robert Stigwood (Producer) John Timperly (Engineer) VINYL: (VG+) There are a few blemishes/surface marks to the vinyl, however these do not affect the play. COVER: (Ex) The front has some laminate creases visible mainly to the edges of the sleeve, and one to the top right hand corner. The back has some very light ring wear; there are no tears to the sleeve, writing or sticker marks. EDGES & SPINE: All in excellent condition with no damage. INNER SLEEVE: Inner Sleeve is free from any damage and has some slight browning due to age. LABELS: Clean, no damage or writing. AUDIO GRADING: I play all LP's on my Pioneer PL 550-X. The LP plays excellent with no jumps, pops, ! POSTAGE, PACKAGING, RETURNS PAYMENT: Items must be payed for within five days. If non payment within five days, I will then instigate an Ebay ruling.
