Audio Grade: 

Disc One: NEAR MINT!
The record plays beautifully. Quite intros and between tracks, no obtrusive loud pops, no clicks and obviously no or skips or sticks at this high grade. A fantastic mono listening experience with great channel separation, crisp vocals and punchy bass.

Sleeve: NEAR MINT!

The sleeve looks fantastic. Bright and white. The front and back retain their original glossy sheen with no sign of ring wear. The edges are sharp and unworn. The spine is unworn. The low number still retains its original print contrast. Overall it is a superb condition example made even more powerful by the very low sleeve number.    

Inners: EXCELLENT PLUS!
