Get an armload of Yes LPs and listen to Yes the way it was meant to be heard - on nice clean vinyl! Included are: Tales From Topographic Oceans (Atlantic 908, Double LP); Yesshows (Atlantic 510, Double LP); The Yes Album (Atlantic 8283); Close To the Edge (Atlantic 7244); Jon Anderson Olias of Sunhillow (Atlantic 18180).
All vinyl grades NM except The Yes album which grades VG++. Excellent set of players! All labels are original Atlantic red and green labels except Tales which is the custom label for that release. All labels are NM. Beautiful!!
Tales From Topographic Oceans includes original inners; outer gatefold sleeve grades VG. Yesshows includes original inners; outer gatefold sleeve is VG+, clean with a cut corner. The Yes Album gatefold sleeve is VG. Close To the Edge includes original inner; gatefold sleeve grades VG. Jon Anderson Olias of Sunhillow includes original inner; gatefold sleeve is VG++. Where the outer sleeves are lower grade (i.e. VG) it is due to edge wear and/or ring wear. The heavy Atlantic vinyl from the period tended to create ring wear, particularly for double LPs. See photos for front and back of every LP.

RECORD GRADING (SEE PHOTOS FOR NOTED DEFECTS): Mint (M) (only if sealed). Not used for 7". Near Mint (NM): Very little evidence of use, glossy surface, minimal vinyl marking; labels are clean and crisp with no writing, ring wear or significant spindle marking; jackets are clean and square, no writing, no splits, no ring wear. Very Good+ (VG+) : Vinyl shows use but has been well cared for, surface has light scuffs or very light scratches (not feelable) that will not significantly degrade the sound; labels are clean with only minor ring wear, any writing or sticker/residue is discrete, only slight soiling or dirtiness, drill hole OK if label otherwise clean; jackets are clean with no more than light ring wear, minor corner dings, if writing on the cover it is discrete, no more than one slight seam split, light creasing, cutout hole or corner only if rest of jacket is free of defects - multiple flaws of the types described will drop grade. Very Good (VG): Vinyl shows significant use with more scuffing or light scratches but will play through without skipping, may be slight warping but will play through (without having to tape a penny to the tonearm like the old days!) and nothing that will cause a significant bobbing of the tone arm, will have surface noise particularly at intro and in soft passages, dimished or irregular gloss; labels may have significant ring wear, more prominent writing or stickers/residue, drill hole, more soiling or dirtiness; sleeves may have multiple splits, writing, creasing, soiling or dirtiness, drill holes or cut corners, and/or ring wear. This is a common grade for older 45's - they were often stored outside of the sleeve which lead to multiple light surface hairline scratches which have not caused significant damage to the vinyl grooves - they will still afford an enjoyable listen. Good (G): Infrequent grade usually only applied to rare items, or to one aspect (i.e. the sleeve) if another aspect (i.e. the vinyl) is a significantly higher grade. Vinyl may have significant scuffing or scratching, poor gloss, significant noise on playing but should play through; labels may have glaring writing, significant ring wear, extensive sticker residue, dirtiness; sleeves may have substantial ring wear, extensive seam splitting, taping, prominent writing.
