SIDE 1 VINYL: VERY GOOD - A FEW VERY MINIMAL SURFACE MARKS ARE VISIBLE AND A QUIET AUDIBLE CRACKLE IS OCCASIONALLY HEARD IN THE BACKGROUND - NOTHING THAT DISTRACTS FROM THE OVERALL AUDIO EXPERIENCE, THERE IS A MORE PROMINANT CRACKLE HEARD DURING THE FINAL 30 SECONDS OF 'YOUR SONG' BUT THIS IS THE ONLY TIME WHEN A CRACKLE IS AS LOUD AS THE AUDIO PLAYBACK AND IT IS VERY BRIEF, ABSOLUTELY NO DEEP SURFACE MARKS, SCRATCHES OR ANYTHING THAT EFFECTS STYLUS TO SKIP OR JUMP DURING PLAYBACK, SIDE 1 OF THE RECORD RETAINS A CLEAN SHINE, HAS LIGHT VISIBLE SURFACE WEAR AND CAN STILL BE PLAYED AND ENJOYED THOUGH OCCASIONAL AUDIBLE CRACKLE CAN BE HEARD IN THE BACKGROUND

SIDES 2, 3 AND 4 VINYL: VERY GOOD / EXCELLENT - A FEW LIGHT NON-FELABLE SURFACE MARKS ARE VISIBLE AND A VERY QUIET AUDIBLE CRACKLE IS OCCASIONALLY, THOUGH RARELY, HEARD WHEN THE PLAYBACK IS IN THE QUIETER MOMENTS - NOTHING THAT DISTRACTS FROM THE OVERALL AUDIO EXPERIENCE, ABSOLUTELY NO DEEP SURFACE MARKS, SCRATCHES OR ANYTHING THAT EFFECTS STYLUS TO SKIP OR JUMP DURING PLAYBACK, THESE THREE SIDES OF THE DOUBLE RECORD SET RETAIN A CLEAN SHINE, HAVE LIGHT NON-FEELABLE VISIBLE SURFACE WEAR AND CAN STILL BE PLAYED AND ENJOYED WITH JUST A LIGHT BACKGROUND CRACKLE APPARENT IN THE QUIETER MOMENTS BUT NOTHING DETRIMENTAL TO OVERALL AUDIO EXPERIENCE. VISUALLY: VERY GOOD // AUDIBLY: VERY GOOD / EXCELLENT

COVER: VERY GOOD – A LITTLE HANDLING AND AGEING WEAR IS VISIBLE THOUGH NOTHING THAT IS DETRIMENTAL TO THE OVERALL APPEARANCE IN ANY WAY, COLOURS ALL LOOK CLEAR AND VIVID, SPINE HAS A LITTLE OUTER PRINT WEAR TOWARDS THE TOP AND BOTTOM SEAMS BUT THE TEXT IS ALL STILL CLEARLY READABLE,  THERE IS A PARTIAL SEAM SPLIT ALONG THE TOP SEAM OF THE REAR PANEL BUT THIS ISN'T LARGE ENOUGH FOR THE RECORD TO COME THROUGH - SEE PHOTO, A COVER THAT IS JUST SHOWING A LITTLE AGEING AND HANDLING WEAR BUT IS STILL IN A PRESENTABLE CONDITION

INNER SLEEVES INCLUDED TOO IN VERY GOOD CONDITION - THE FRONT AND REAR PANELS ON BOTH ARE ACTUALLY IN EXCELLENT CONDITION WITH THE TEXT AND IMAGERY ALL CLEAR AND VIVID, I HAVE SLIGHTLY DOWNGRADED AS THERE ARE TWO PARTIAL SEAM SPLITS ON RECORD ONE'S INNER AND ONE PARTIAL SEAM SPLIT ON RECORD TWO - THESE ARE NOT LARGE ENOUGH FOR THE RECORDS TO FALL THROUGH AND I SHALL POST THE RECORDS IN SPARE GENERIC INNER SLEEVES TO AVOID ANY FURTHER WEAR
