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 purchased.

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. There is light wear around the centres but overall the labels are clean, bright and in good condition.

As for the vinyl itself, both sides have a lovely lustre and show nothing serious. There is light signs of use with minor thin wispy lines and faint sleeve marks but nothing at all major.

I play tested the record and it played well with nice clarity throughout. It lays flat, there is next to no movement in the record arm and the sound produced has no distortion(caused by excessive use) and no skips, sticks or annoying clicks. There was a slight trace of surface noise in the run ins and intro to side 2 but even this was minimal and overall it plays very well and was a great listen. 

The sleeve is in excellent- condition. It has some rubbing and minor wear to the edges and corners but nothing serious and the spine is legible. There are no splits or weak areas and no tears or pen marks. There is slight ring marks showing to each side and a few minor creases around the edges but nothing major. There is also light age related grubbiness to each side and a few minor marks/scuffs to the front top right corner area. Overall the sleeve has light signs of age and handling but nothing major and is tidy enough overall. Please study the pictures provided to gain as much information as possible.

It includes its original plain white inner which has no splits, tears or pen marks and just light creasing.

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.
