Nice and very rare original U.S. pressing.
Despite the flaws described below,
this is your chance to hear MOST of the killer songs on this LP in their original,
MONO / High-Fidelity glory, with crisp highs and nice tight bass & mids.
We VPI-Machine-cleaned both sides,
and play-graded most of the record,
and checked all the intros and outros, focusing on any scuffs or scratches that could be noisy or problematic.
Side 1 plays with no obvious noise,
except during the dead-wax
between the songs,
where there's light, low-level,
unobtrusive surface crackle. Most of side 2 is similar in sound quality,
except as noted: Side 2 track 4 (WILD WILD WORLD)
has a "repeat skip" at the beginning, and at the end, with a loud
cyclicle pop also audible
during the beginning
and ending of that tune. Track 6 (FOUR LETTER WORD - ROCK)
has some audible hiss,
in addition to slightly louder
random surface noise,
and there's a jump-skip toward the end.
The labels are clean,
with the larger "deep groove"
pressing ring, and a smaller pressing ring
closer to the center-hole, see photos.
The front laminate has light shelf-wear, ("spread-out" ring wear), but none
of the front laminate
is actually worn through.
The rear is lightly yellowed,
more so "outside" of the diameter
of the record, see photos.
Top and bottom seams are split,
but neatly repaired with Scotch tape,
probably many decades ago.
No writing.
No holes or rips.
No price-stickers,
no other stickers or tape
