FAY HILL - ISLAND IN MY MIND 1987 Pressing on Bouvier Records Cat No. BO-0702-2

Very rare original Bouvier pressing, which can be distinguished from later reissues by the "MADE IN USA" text printed in the bottom left corner of the sleeve on the rear, and also by the perimeter text on the labels being upside down in relation to the rest of the text.
The record doesn't appear to have been played many times previously and sounds terrific - please see the full condition description below.

CONDITION OF VINYL The vinyl is glossy and any marks / lines on the surface are fine and insignificant - there are no major or serious imperfections. The album plays beautifully, and I heard only a couple of instances of static/surface noise between tracks. Labels are clean with minor spindle marks. There is a very slight edge warp visible when the record is spinning on the turntable, but this doesn't affect playback in any way.
Overall vinyl grade is EX.

CONDITION OF COVER The outer sleeve is mostly fine, but does have a slight scuff in the bottom right corner and a couple of tiny nicks further along on the bottom edge (please see the photos in close-up). Otherwise there is just general light wear from handling and storage. 
The inner sleeve is a clear poly anti-static type which I assume is the original.
Due to the above-noted issue I would grade the cover as a strong VG. 


The album will be packed very carefully and securely in sturdy packaging to ensure it reaches you safely. The disc will be separated from the outer sleeve for transit to prevent any possibility of seam splits. You will see many favourable comments about the quality of our packaging in our previous feedback.
