CONDITION:

VG/VG

We always strictly grade our records using the Record Collector Standard (Side A graded first))



DISC: The disc is bright, clean and glossy. To the naked eye there are several light marks that are not feelable and do not affect play.


 


I have played both sides of this disc and consider it to be a super example - it plays without fault.




COVER:  The fully laminated cover is clean and bright, all four edges are in superb condition with no signs of storage wear.




The spine is clean and strong, the printed detail (in black) is completely visible and easy to read.



The cover is a superb example that I grade as EX.




I will provide further photographs and information if required.



OTHER INFORMATION:


This 1967 album is considered to be an early 'concept album' with the theme of 'signs of the zodiac.


The album features early use of the Moog synthesiser that is played by Paul Beaver.  The music was written by Mort Garson



All photographs used in this listing were taken by myself and are of the item listed.
