From my personal collection, this is a rare Recommended Records UK reissue from 1979 on clear vinyl, purchased new in about 1983.  The vinyl is play-graded solid VG+ with a little minor surface noise here and there in the quiet bits, fairly typical for colored (or in this case clear) vinyl.  I played this in its entirety recently, and it was a great listen.  The clear plastic cover and insert is EX, with a little discoloring and tape residue on the opening edge.  Beyond that, just some typical minor shelf wear and aging of the plastic outer. I added the clear LP inner sleeve when I got it to keep the record from touching the rest of the packaging, so that's after-market equipment, if you will.  This is a solid copy of a rare krautrock gem; please see the photos for a general lay of the land.
