Tracklisting & More Information

More Information
Recorded at Abbey Road and Olympic Studios between June and November 1967, by the time of the April '68 release of 'Odessey And Oracle', the Zombies had effectively split-up. This obviously hampered the album's commercial breakthrough and sales were low as a result. Although the STEREO edition of the album was subsequently re-pressed by CBS in the wake of the US success of the 'Time Of The Season' single, there was only one initial pressing of the MONO version - a superb copy which we present here.

Condition
The picture sleeve is nice, with a few light creases in laminate on the front, with minimal wear to the egdes & the text on the spine clear. The previous owner has written their name neatly at the top and there are two name stamps; one strong and one fairly faint, overall in very good condition.

This has A1/B1 matrices.

The labels have some spindle marks to show that this has been played and enjoyed many times with a name stamp to both sides.

The vinyl is strictly graded as good. There are some noticeable surface marks and some mild scratches to both sides. We have professionally cleaned and play tested both sides, and can confirm it plays through on our turntable without skipping, but during play back on the first side there are a few clicks to the first two tracks, and the sound quality overall has deteriorated slightly.

Although far from mint, finding an original mono copies are becoming Increasingly hard to find, offered here at an advantageous price.
