A clean UK second pressing of The Jimi Hendrix Experience’s masterpiece, Electric Ladyland, on Track Records.

Both discs are in Near Mint condition, lightly played, with a few spindle marks on each label.  The audio is Near Mint on all four sides. The fully laminated gatefold cover is in VG+ to VG++ condition, with some lamination creasing and a small bit of fraying to the right edge of the front.  This copy has the second label variation, with “Two Record Set” printed on the labels (oddly enough, probably more scarce than the earlier version without this.)

Prior to the advent of Popsike, any black label Track “Electric Ladyland” was considered a first pressing and we consider this simply a slightly later variant.  This has the original white type (the “blue type” variant is nothing more than a printing error  hyped by unscrupulous or misinformed sellers.) As with all Track pressings, the catalog number 613 008 appears on both discs; an additional catalog number, 2657 001, appears at the bottom of the inner gatefold and below “Two Record Set” on the labels.

A clean copy of an essential 1960s album.

And if you’re obsessed as we are, read our essays on why the white type is the original variation, and the much hyped Blue Type “first printing” is nothing more than a printing error, here and here.
