Axel Rudi Pell - Wild Obsession - 1989 & Bad Reputation 1991 (both made in Germany and both first pressings I believe)
First up Nasty Reputation:-
Jacket - excellent really, always been in plastic LP sleeve, imperfections are slight crease to the corner about 5" inches more noticeable on back, and several usual edge very small creases all less than 1 centimetre, the tips of corners have tiny bit wear. Apart from these minor defects like new really.
Inner sleeve - like new! Includes merchandise flyer postcard, like new too.
Vinyl - there's quite a few minor surface marks, I guarantee this as only played once to record to cassette, so marks down to friction from store shelf handling, nothing will affect play and visible only on tilting in the light.
Secondly Wild Obsession:-
Jacket - still has original shrinkwrap opened to access inners, again immeadiately put in plastic LP sleeve back in the day, I can only see a couple of the usual LP edge creases, one at 1cm and the other 2cm, corners and everything else like new!
Inner sleeve - excellent almost like new, imperfections are a couple of very small finger/thumb indents 1cm long, and one slight crease to corner approx 6cm long.
Vinyl - Quite a lot of minor surface marks to both sides, again from friction of rubbing against other records in the store back in the day, I recorded once to cassette and it's sat since, there's a few marks that are a little deeper unfortunately and one being a tiny spot size of 1-2mm, now my turntable has been out of action for years so I can't guarantee if this tiny 'spot' will affect play, the rest will be fine, it's a shame I can't test to attain this, I honestly can't remember an issue when listening to the recording which I listened to many times before I upgraded to cd years ago.
It's a shame the vinyl receiving friction wear like this as the jacket and inner are as new as the day purchased.
So there you go, 1 x 32 year old record and one 30 year old, overall very good to excellent condition, and both very rare and very scarce on vinyl.
