Black Sabbath first LP on vertigo.
I believe this is a 2nd pressing (it does not have "A Philips Record" text and the credits are in upper case.
See all pictures.
I cannot guarantee this though as I can't read the runouts.
The LP is in good + condition. There are lots of light marks on each side with a few more prominent scuffs and light scratches.
The record plays without any skips but there are background pops and clicks throughout , which don't detract from enjoyment of music .
I can hear a slight sibbilence (?) In the right channel on Ossie's (sic) vocals on track 1.
I've cleaned the LP and placed in protective inner sleeve.
Please don't ask to return, the record has been cleaned but there are lots of pops and clicks while playing.
The condition has been taken into consideration on opening bid price.
