UK Island Vinyl LP album (Pink Rim)

I have just played this through.

My god! Wow. I forgot how amazing the first track is. The album is so dynamic in every way.


The cover is in good condition, but has slight crease lines in the surface of the cover (seen when moving around in light); the inner gatefold has stretching at the very top, where the plastic has moved away from the inner (still attached) There is a slight pull on the bottom inner too. This was on from when I bought it 20 years ago.


The inlay sleeve is a little creased but intact, as can be seen.


The vinyl looks and sounds great. I would rate this a VG+ - it has crackles in parts (noticed on quiet passages) and maybe one or two very slight clicks, but no jumps. Nothing disturbs listening at all.

Any crackles are more noticed on the very quiet parts, and we are talking subtle (I had this up loud) through the hifi speakers. This is a dynamic album with loud to quiet parts.


I will send it out in a brand new record mailer
