NICK DRAKE - FIVE LEAVES LEFT LP (ORIGINAL UK PRESSING - ISLAND ILPS 9105). A well-presented original UK copy of the beautiful debut studio release from Nick Drake. Side one of the record (Island ILPS 9105, original black block labels, with track listing 'Way To Blue' then 'Day Is Done') is in glossy VG condition showing a few surface marks and one small scratch towards the start of track A1 that does produce a small skip. Side 2 is in VG+ condition - again with lovely lustre, with a few light surface marks - playing through without any problems. Matrix (machine stamped): ILPS 9105 A//2 & B//2. Textured pink 'block' Island labels are bright and clean. The original first printing sleeve ('Printed & Made By Ernest J. Day', 'Day Is Done' then 'Way To Blue' track listing) is in VG+ condition, covers are nice and bright. Small stain spot to the bottom left of the cover and some age-related edge storage wear. The spine is party-legible.
