BLACK SABBATH          Sabbath bloody Sabbath
IN AMAZING CONDITION AND PLAYS NEAR MINT !!!!
ORIGINAL UK 1ST PRESS WITH .... WWA LETTERS ON THE LABELS PRINTED IN SILVER AND NOT WHITE, AND WWA 005 WRITTEN AT 3 O'CLOCK ALSO ON THE LABELS.
ABOUT TIME WE HAD SOME MORE BLACK SABBATH, WHO WERE FORMED IN BIRMINGHAM ENGLAND IN 1968, AND THIS THEIR 5th ALBUM, ORIGINALLY RELEASED IN NOVEMBER 1973. THIS PLAYS AWESOME WITH NEAR FAULTLESS AUDIO !!!! THIS IS ANOTHER ROCK GEM FROM MY TREASURED PERSONAL VINYL COLLECTION !!!!
BEFORE YOU READ ON, I WOULD JUST LIKE TO MENTION ABOUT SHIPPING. DUE TO THE TERRIBLE VIRUS, THERE IS UNCERTAINTY IN WHAT IS GOING TO HAPPEN NEXT, AND SHIPPING COULD BE AFFECTED. I AM CONTINUING TO LIST, AND SHIP AS USUAL . IF YOU HAVE WON ANY LP'S, AND I AM UNABLE TO SHIP I WILL KEEP THEM VERY SAFE, AND SHIP WHEN THINGS ARE BACK TO NORMAL. TAKE CARE AND BE EXTRA SAFE, AND IF YOU HAVE AN QUESTIONS, PLEASE ASK ME, THANK YOU, ROSE . 
DISCLAIMER :: ALL MY LP'S LISTED ON THIS SITE ARE ORIGINAL AND NOT FAKE OR COUNTERFEIT, AND ARE SOLD IN GOOD FAITH. THEY WERE BOUGHT ON THE DATE OF ISSUE. THANK YOU !!

THIS IS AN ORIGINAL 1973 UK 1ST PRESS  ::  WWA 005 *1Y//2 V 420  ::  WWA 005 2Y//4 V 420 . 
ON THE SILVER WWA LABEL :: WWA 005 .

COVER :: ORIGINAL 1ST PRESS GATEFOLD, WITH, 'MANUFACTURED AND PRINTED IN ENGLAND', ON THE BACK ABOVE THE WWA LOGO, AND ALSO 'WWA 005 SUPER DELUXE' PRINTED IN TOP RIGHT CORNER. THE SPINE AND EDGES ARE ALL SOLID AND IN LOVELY CONDITION, JUST FOUR TINY SPOTS OF RUB ON THE SEALED OPENING EDGE SIDE, WITH THE ACTUAL OPENING EDGE STILL SHARP. THE BACK IS FREE FROM WRITING, WITH JUST SOME VERY LIGHT AGEING AS YOU WOULD EXPECT FROM A WHITE BACK. INSIDE THE GATEFOLD NOTHING TO REPORT. NOW I WAS GOING TO GRADE EXCELLENT, BUT DUE ONLY TO THOSE FOUR TINY SPOTS OF RUB AS DESCRIBED ABOVE, BUT STILL A LOVELY SOLID COVER, I WILL GRADE  :: EX/EX- .    

VINYL :: PLAYS WITH NO SKIPS, JUMPS OR STICKS, AND NO POPS, CLICKS, TICKS, STATIC OR CRACKLE, SO SUPERB AUDIO, THAT WILL BE VERY DIFFICULT TO BETTER.

VISUALLY AWAY FROM BRIGHT LIGHT THE VINYL LOOKS FANTASTIC, AND UNDER BRIGHT LIGHT JUST A FEW COSMETIC SLEEVE REMOVAL SPIDER WEB THREAD ULTRA FINE LINES AND A COUPLE OF HARMLESS COSMETIC HAIRLINES WITH ONE IN THE MIDDLE OF TRACK 1 ON SIDE 1, BEING A BIT MORE NOTICEABLE, BUT STILL LIKE THE REST TOTALLY HARMLESS. SO WITH SUPERB CRYSTAL CLEAR AUDIO, I WOULD GRADE THE AUDIO, A VERY EASY AND WELLL DESERVED  :: NEAR MINT .  

LABELS   :: AGAIN NO ISSUES, JUST SOME LIGHT SPINDLE LINES AT THE CENTRE SEEN UNDER BRIGHT LIGHT SUPERB :: EX/EX+ .  

ORIGINAL 1ST PRESS LYRIC INNER :: NO SPLITS, AND NO WRITING, BUT THERE IS SOME DARK CELLO TAPE ALONG THE BOTTOM DGE. 1ST PRESS AS IT HAS SQUARE BOTTOM CORNERS, AND SPLAYED TOP CORNERS, AND DUE TO THE CELLO TAPE, I WILL HAVE TO GRADE  :: VG/VG+ . THE VINYL WILL COME IN A NEW INNER ALONG WITH THE ORIGINAL LYRIC INNER!!!!

GREAT ALBUM, AND THE AUDIO IS OUTSTANDING AND WILL CERTAINLY NOT DISAPPOINT. LOVELY SOLID COVER AND INNER AS WELL !!!! THANK YOU AS ALWAYS FOR YOUR TIME !!!  ROSE.

DUE TO WHAT IS GOING ON IN OUR CRAZY WORLD, I AM SORRY ALL PACKAGES WILL BE SENT ROYAL MAIL INTERNATIONAL TRACKED WITH A TRACKING NUMBER, WHICH IS SAFEST AND BEST WAY, SO WE CAN TRACK YOUR PACKAGE, THANK YOU !!!! 

IF SLEEVE REMOVAL AND HAIRLINES ARE MENTIONED, THEN THEY ARE TOTALLY COSMETIC AND HARMLESS, AND THESE ARE NOT SCRATCHES, AS YOU WILL KNOW SCRATCHES ARE FEELABLE AND CAUSE AUDIO PROBLEMS, SO IF THERE WERE ANY SCRATCHES, I WOULD MENTION THEM, THANK YOU !  

TAKE CARE AND BE SAFE !!!!
