Hello my name is Brian and I have been a music collector for many years and have always bought and sold items to feed my passion...I have never been a dealer and I will always describe my items for sale as honestly and accurately as possible with plenty of clear and detailed pictures.
If you read my ebay feed back as a seller you will see that people are happy with what they have received from my auctions. I try not to waffle on about how rare an item is using silly expressions such as "AWESOME" or "IMPOSSIBLE LIKE THIS" etc etc (yawn yawn)!

I am very particular about packaging. I use quality packaging with cardboard stiffeners.

Please bid with confidence, and if for some reason you are not happy with your purchase i am happy to give a FULL refund on receiving the item back in the condition I posted it out in.

I recommend extra insurance for the more valuable items (over £40), it only costs a couple of pounds and is well worth it in my opinion.

I will NOT post items over seas without full insurance.
I use the 'RECORD COLLECTOR' grading system with a + or - where appropriate.

so here we go.........


 Artist............. BLACK SABBATH

 Title............... BLACK SABBATH

 Format.......... 12"LP

 Label................VERTIGO SWIRL (SPIRAL).
Catalogue No. VO6

 Year..................1970
Sleeve...............Very worn spine, no nasty tears or sticker marks, no unwanted writing. It is either a 'change over' sleeve or it has had the inside replaced?. I say this because it has the obvious first issue rough card surface, but the 'WARNING" message mentions VERTIGO and not STEREO....... VG
Vinyl................Numerous fine lines and more obvious marks which cause a constant crackle through out the entire playback. The music is great to listen to and with it being a loud album is still most enjoyable. No amount of super duper cleaning is going to make this a mint album but a clean may help. It does play through without skips and jumps. VG-

Labels............No unwanted writing or stickers or tears. ORIGINAL VERY FIRST RELEASE WITH "A PHILIPS RECORD PRODUCT" EX-
Inner Sleeve. Original to this album, repaired, surface tears, split along bottom. FAIR

Comments....very hard to find in any condition, this is not a great copy but it is the original and they are in very short supply.

Do study the pictures, and ask any questions you may have, just message me.

Best of luck bidding. if you require more information, just ask. Brian.
