The much sought after original NIMBUS pressing of The Beatles' classic album SGT PEPPER & THE LONELY HEARTS CLUB BAND (IN ARCHIVE CONDITION W/ SHRINK)!!
What else can be said about this pressing that hasn't been said already? The fact that it seems to double in demand every year is a testament to its undeniable quality alone. It's hard to explain to someone who has never owned this record how mind-altering it can be, showing you the true potential of just how incredible vinyl can be. Never have I felt like a band or artist was literally in the room until hearing this Nimbus pressing. It's up there in the audiophile grails with the likes of the near mint Zep II RL's. Similarly, you want to get one of these in NEAR MINT condition if you can, so absolutely nothing can interrupt the magic that this pressing elicits. Fortunately, earlier this year I came across a copy still in its signature crinkly NIMBUS shrink! Imagine my shock when I also found out it was UNPLAYED after 40 years?!!! To come across such a treasure was awe-inspiring and since then I have battled with the struggle of whether to let such a once in a blue moon find go but I have always believed in letting things go if there is someone out there who somehow desires it more than you. And I desire it a LOT haha! As I have only played this once to test play it, one of you will be walking away with a MINT- condition of arguably THE BEST AUDIOPHILE PRESSING EVER MADE.

The closest you can get to stone MINT for this sleeve without it being fully sealed. Still in shrink, corners are gorgeous, no staining etc. Perfect! Shrink was only opened to confirm the vinyl inside.
LABELS: NM+
Labels are clearly stunning, as pictured! You can see how the spindle has that new freshly pierced look. This is because it was previously UNPLAYED until my ONE play test. Side 2 label just has a small mark from where some cleaning fluid dried, otherwise MINT.
RECORD: M-
MINT-! BEAUTIFUL! no scratches, no marks, no hairlines! Played only ONCE for this test play. My test play was absolutely incredible. No surface noise, just silent and gorgeous. Every detail so pronounced and crisp. No other pressing makes it feel like the band are literally giving you a live performance in your room like this pressing. This is the pressing that makes you fully appreciate this album as not only one of the best albums of all time, but one of the best vinyl pressings of ALL TIME.
Original Inner and cutout Included also in NM condition! (Pictured)
Cleaning: All vinyl sold by me is carefully cared for and cleaned with one of the most effective processes in the field. Manually cleaned with a Disco Stat + Loricraft combination with a formulated distilled water and alcohol mixture, and a tergikleen + glycol surfactant. The process is then finished off with an Ultrasonic Degritter cleaning to blast out and rinse any other impurities that may still remain. This is one of the key factors into why the vinyl I sell on sounds so clean and lacks the surface noise you may get from a seller who doesn't go to the same lengths as this vinyl obssessed guy over here :)!
