Labyrinth is a soundtrack album by English musician David Bowie and South African composer Trevor Jones, released in 1986 for the film Labyrinth. It was the second of three soundtrack releases in which Bowie had a major role, following Christiane F. and preceding The Buddha of Suburbia.  Bowie had wanted to make music for a children's film and saw this as his chance. Bowie recorded five songs for the film: "Underground", "Magic Dance", "Chilly Down", "As The World Falls Down", and "Within You". The film's theme song, "Underground", features on the soundtrack twice.  The Labyrinth soundtrack has been included on lists of the top 50 movie soundtracks by Paste magazine and Gigwise.  According to Bowie biographer David Buckley in 2015, the Labyrinth soundtrack was Bowie's third-best selling iTunes album in the United Kingdom.

DISCOUNTED PRICE DUE TO GENERIC COVER!

ALL ALBUMS PROVIDED IN A PROTECTIVE SLEEVE

Description:  Album is in VG+ shape with minor surface marks that do not affect the sound.  Replacement cover provided, original was torn.

Grade:  VG+

Please read entire item description above before bidding/buying impulsively, as there may be a specific mention of detail or wear on the vinyl or cover that I have described above.

Play-Testing:  I test my records by playing them completely through unless NM or Sealed (in order to protect their quality) before listing.  All records are cleaned before selling them.  

Surface Marks:  I do not get dissuaded by surface scratches on albums, that does not mean the Album skips so please be comfortable if you receive one from me with them - as the records are previously owned.

Record Jackets:  I try and grade jackets and albums as one set but oftentimes the jacket may not be in as good of a condition as an album.  I will provide two grades if significant in my description above. 

Generic Record Jackets:  I do not show pictures of album covers unless I have them in the condition seen.  My albums with generic covers are usually VG+ or better with very few graded as VG.  These are often times hidden gems at great prices!!

Inner Sleeves:  I do not mention these unless they have specific characteristics.  I provide a replacement inner sleeve if the one I have has extensive damage.

Grading:  The detailed grading I use is Goldmine Standard/eBay Standard. Descriptions are below:

Mint (M) Vinyl - Absolutely perfect in every way. Certainly never been played, possibly even still sealed. Inserts/Sleeves: Perfect 

NM - A nearly perfect record. A record has more than likely never been played, and the vinyl will play perfectly, with no imperfections during playback.  Sleeves/Inserts should have no creases, folds, seam splits, cut-out holes, or other noticeable similar defects. 

VG+ Record will show some signs that it was played and otherwise handled by a previous owner who took good care of it. Defects should be more of a cosmetic nature, not affecting the actual playback as a whole. Record surfaces may show some signs of wear and may have slight scuffs or very light scratches that don't affect one's listening experiences.  The label may have some ring wear or discoloration, barely noticeable. Spindle marks may be present. Inserts/sleeves will have some slight wear, slightly turned-up corners, or a slight seam split. 

(VG) Surface noise will be evident upon playing, especially in soft passages and during a songs intro and fade, but will not overpower the music otherwise. Labels may be marred by writing, or have tape or stickers (or their residue) attached. The same will be true of picture sleeves or LP covers.

(G/G+) A record in Good or Good Plus condition can be played through without skipping. But it will have significant surface noise, scratches, and visible groove wear. A cover or sleeve will have seam splits, especially at the bottom or on the spine. Tape, writing, ring wear, or other defects will be present. While the record will be playable without skipping, noticeable surface noise and "ticks" will almost certainly accompany the playback.  

Satisfaction Guarantee:  If you are unhappy, I offer a return period. I also encourage you to contact me via email if you find the record is not as I represented.
