All records are graded to the Record Collector Guidelines, with extra information added as required when play tested. Also all photos above are of the exact record you will receive if successful.

This record is in excellent+ condition. It has some spindle marks visible on the labels but there are no pen marks, scuffs or any other damage such as stains or fading. The centres are not loose or worn and overall the labels are clean, bright and in great shape.

As for the vinyl itself, both sides are very clean with nothing remotely serious showing in normal light and no real scratches or marks. There is some faint light wispy lines or 'sleeve marks' in places however but these are all very minor and overall it has a lovely lustre and is in great shape. These few minor issues and some more light wispy lines are visible under bright light but not a lot and of course nothing remotely deep or serious. So overall the record is in very nice condition with only mild signs of use.

I play tested the record and it played very well and sounded great throughout with excellent clarity and minimal amounts of interference. It lays flat, there is next to no movement in the record arm and the sound produced is excellent with no distortion caused by excessive use and of course no skips, sticks or annoying clicks. There was the most occasional hint of faint surface noise between tracks and also in the run in or intro to side 2 but nothing at all serious or disruptive. Overall it was a pleasure to play test and produced audio of excellent clarity which is a solid EX+ grade.

The gatefold sleeve is in near mint condition. It has a touch of wear/rubbing to the bottom edges and corners but this is mild and all the others edges are superb with little showing and the writing along the spine all clearly legible. There are of course no splits and no tears, scuffs or pen marks anywhere. There is little to no creasing, next to no ring marks evident and overall it is clean, strong and in great shape all round. Please study the pictures provided to gain as much information as possible on its condition.

It includes its original plain white inner which is in near mint condition. This has no splits, tears or pen marks and only minor creasing and ring marks.

The record will be packaged in cardboard stiffeners and bubble wrapped thoroughly when dispatched. It will also be sent in a brand new protective plastic sleeve, and within 24hrs of receiving payment to try to ensure a swift delivery.
