THE BEATLES ● ABBEY ROAD ● 1978 FRENCH REISSUE ● Vinyl LP ● 2C06604243 ● VG+/VG+
Time to move on some of my collection, of over 40 years, before I move house
During Covid and various lockdowns I have re-played all of my collection and I have graded this one, as follows:-
VG+/VG+ The Beatles Abbey Road 1978 2C 066 04243 French Reissue
Vinyl - Under bright light displays a few very feint superficial surface marks/paper scuffs, nothing feel-able at all. Played both sides, all through, & absolutely minimal to zero crackle/background noise, realistically inaudible even in quiet bits/run in/run out. Plays & sounds great. Cover - Laminated picture sleeve, almost no edge/corner wear. Few, very small, very light creases on edges. Good solid cover. Inner - Plain white paper with vinyl care instructions printed in French.
