This auction is for the vinyl LP  -  CARMEN  -  FANDANGOS IN SPACE  - 1973 Regal Zonophone Records (England)  SRZA 8518.  ( Please see label close-ups for track listings etc).   This album has a great " TEXTURED " gatefold sleeve.  Matrix numbers; SIDE ONE  = SRZA 8518 A-1 and what looks like a very feint  1  A  and SIDE TWO = SRZA 8518 B-1 and what looks like a feint  1 11.        Please note -  I play all my records, both sides, to check for any defects, I will mention anything I notice in the condition report.  Listened using my mid-range Audio Technica ATLP 120 deck with an Ortofon cartridge.  PLEASE SEE MY OTHER AUCTIONS FOR MORE GREAT ALBUMS..
Condition: The textured gatefold picture sleeve for this album is in a brilliant condition, it still has its original price label on.   The covers spine is clear and un-rubbed and there is NO record break-through to the edges, although the bottom edges do have some slight rubs, overall = excellent.  The labels = excellent.     I have played both sides of this album, there are a couple of occasional light, little crackles, but overall still a great and enjoyable listen ..  Visually, the vinyl has some light hairlines/scratches and some light storage marks, overall = very good + to excellent - condition.  Still a great, enjoyable listen, with NO clicks, sticks or jumps. Please note, any white flashes or shadows on my pictures are usually from the spot lights I use for photographing things, or the sun (if it's out), they do not appear on the actual cover or vinyl....  
Where appropriate, the record will be taken out of its picture sleeve and put into a new plain sleeve to prevent record breakthrough damage to the original sleeve whilst in transit. The item will then be put into a new Covers 33  400g poly protective cover to keep it safe. All my records are sent out in a strong cardboard package marked '' vinyl records - please do not bend '' + '' fragile ''.   When grading my records I use the Record Collector Magazines grading guide: Mint = Brand new condition.  Excellent = The record will show some signs of being played, but very little lessening in sound quality. The cover etc. may have slight wear or creases. Very good = The record has obviously been played many times, but displays no major sound deterioration, despite noticeable surface marks / light scratches.  The cover would have normal wear and tear - no major defects unless mentioned. Each description might be tweaked with a  + or - .  I play all my records and will mention anything noticeable.
