Description
-Jimi Hendrix: Cry Of Love, ULTRAMEGARARE! UK 1971 Genuine Track Label BOTH Sides 10-trk LP *RED VINYL* !!! What can I say about:this is one of the rarest UK-pressed records - a crimson red vinyl pressing of Jimi Hendrix's 1971 album 'Cry Of Love'. There are believed to be only five existing examples of this legendary red vinyl disc, which was actually a test-pressing to gauge dealer reaction to vinyl colour of the forthcoming Pink Fairies 'Never Never Land' LP. For the test, Polydor used stampers from the disc they were pressing at that time, which happened to be Jimi Hendrix's 'Cry Of Love'. The existence of this album was highlighted in a 'Record Collector' magazine article in 1993 and to date, only one or two copies have surfaced. Those have had mismatched labels with a 'Cry of Love' label on one side and a 'Very Best Of Bert Kaempfert' label on the other. However this undocumented example has the correct 'Cry Of Love' labels on BOTH sides and plays as labelled, Original matrix Machine stamped matrices: 2408101 A//1 & 2408101 B//1; Stamper codes: 111 5 & 12 23. Vinyl weight: 139g. This disc is supplied without an original cover. CONDITION:Disc: Labels: EXCELLENT (As you can see, both are clean & fully intact. There are one or two light scuffs & spindle trails on each, but nothing which spoils them);Visual:EX(A vivid and vibrantly coloured disc which is a solid crimson red throughout with no spots or speckles in the vinyl.Sound Quality: EXCELLENT!! I think only copy still possible to buy!!(Track Record 2408 101)
