VINYL:  EX OVERALL, both sides are clean and with barely a mark visible but I can see light scuff mark to side 1 over tracks 4/5....it still retains a beautiful original black sheen!! 

AUDIO: EX...plays with no skips or jumps.. there is some light background noise in places,...overall the run-ins are quiet, and this L.P. is a great listen!!

SLEEVE:  EX...front laminated single sleeve, no tears and laminate is in great condition with some light creasing at spine edge and only very light creasing evident to rest of front side....spine text is all there and fully readable, corners are in pretty decent shape and back of sleeve is very clean but has ringwear marks (as, it seems, do most sleeves of this type from the era!!), still very presentable!!!

...overall sleeve is in a clean, decent and presentable 

shape for its' age!! 

LABELS:  EX nice and clean!!...


INNER SLEEVE: EX, period poly-lined die-cut inner sleeve...

(MADE IN U.K....FOREIGN PATENTS PENDING)

not sure if it is the original but came with the l.p. when purchased by me a long time ago!!


GRADING: I AM NO EXPERT BUT TRY AND GRADE AS HONESTLY AS POSSIBLE...WITH PLUS (+) AND MINUS (-) IF THE CONDITION FALLS BETWEEN TWO GRADES.

Record Collector Magazine's Grading Guide:

MINT: The record itself is in brand new condition with no surface marks or deterioration in sound quality. The cover and any extra items such as the lyric sheet, booklet or poster are in perfect condition. Records advertised as Sealed or Unplayed should be Mint.

EXCELLENT: The record shows some signs of having been played, but there is very little lessening in sound quality. The cover and packaging might have slight wear and / or creasing.

VERY GOOD: The record has obviously been played many times, but displays no major deterioration in sound quality, despite noticeable surface marks and the occasional light scratch. Normal wear and tear on the cover or extra items, without any major defects, is acceptable.

 I WILL ALWAYS POST WITH RECOGNISED MAILERS AND STIFFENERS...THE VINYL WILL BE SEPARATED FROM THE SLEEVE PRIOR TO MAILING....
