THE GRATEFUL DEAD The Grateful Dead (Rare Debut 1967 Japanese gold label first press 9-track 'Vitaphonic Stereo' LP, pressed on 'EverClean' RED VINYL by Toshiba Musical Industries. Comes housed in the original silk laminated flipback picture sleeve with the Everclean catalogue inner. The sleeve [VG] has some dulling to the colour & inevitable ring wear, with some paper chipping & scuff marks, no writing & all text legible. The vinyl grades VG/VG+with a nice sheen both sides & just a small scratch towards the end of the opening track, 'The Golden Road', causing just a few minor clicks on rotation. A nice but by no means mint example of this hard to find Japanese pressing BP-8222)
