This is a very good plus copy of DSOTM.
High lustre, verging, but not quite, on the excellent.
Plays Great and is audio graded excellent as a record in such super
condition should sound like. Only a VG+ on the ultra rare gatefold, although it is clean
and without pen or pencil marks.
This is an essential addition for the completists collection
due to what must be a rare crossover sleeve.
