BLACK SABBATH
SABOTAGE
ORIGINAL 1975 UK 1ST PRESS WITH, 'RECORDS AND TAPES' PRINTED UNDER 'NEMS' ON THE LABEL. ALSO 'MEGALOMANIA' IS MISPELT AS, 'MEGLOMANIA', AND TRACK 5 IS NOT MENTIONED ON THE SIDE 2 LABEL, AND EALIEST MATRIX, 1Y//1 / 2Y//1 !!!!    WELL I THOUGHT IT WAS ABOUT TIME WE HAD SOME MORE BLACK SABBATH, WHO WERE FORMED IN BIRMINGHAM ENGLAND IN 1968, AND THIS, THEIR 6th ALBUM, RELEASED ON 28th JULY 1975. NOW A VERY INTERESTING STORY ABOUT THE TITLE OF THE ALBUM, AS AT THE TIME OF PRODUCTION, THE BAND WERE BEING SUED BY THEIR FORMER MANAGEMENT, AND FELT THEY HAD BEEN, "SABOTAGED", SO A FITTING TITLE OF, 'SABOTAGE' WAS CHOSEN FOR THE ALBUM TITLE !!!!
THIS ALBUM IS IN LOVELY CONDITION AS YOU WILL FIND OUT BELOW, AND YET ANOTHER VERY SAD LOSS FROM MY TREASURED PERSONAL VINYL COLLECTION !!!!
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 !!

ON THE NEMS LABEL :: 9119001 .

COVER :: ORIGINAL 1ST PRESS FULLY TEXTURED PTINTED IN ENGLAND BY ROBERT STACE, AND IN LOVELY SOLID CONDITION, WITH SOME SMALL CREASE LINES DOWN THE SPINE SIDE EDGE, AND A SMALL RUB IN THE MIDDLE OF THE SPINE, AND A SMALL RUB ON THE CORNERS, WITH THE OPENING EDGE STILL SHARP, WITH A TINY STICKER RESIDUE MARK TOP RIGHT CORNER ON THE FRONT. THERE IS ALSO A NAME WRITTEN TINY ON THE BACK, IN THE TOP RIGHT CORNER OF THE MIRROR, PLEASE SEE PHOTO THANK YOU. THERE IS NOTHING ELSE,  SO I WOULD GRADE  ::  VG+ . 

VINYL :: THIS PLAYS SUPERB, ALL I HEARD WAS ........

ON SIDE 1, PLAYS OUTSTANDING, JUST TWO LIGHT TICKS AT THE END OF TRACK 2, AND THEN TWO LIGHT TICKS BETWEEN TRACK 2 AND TRACK 3, SO ONLY TWO ON THE ACTUAL AUDIO !!!!

ON SIDE 2, PLAYS OUTSTANDING !!!!

NOW VISUALLY AWAY FROM BRIGHT LIGHT THE VINYL LOOKS LOVELY, JUST A FEW VERY FAINT COSMETIC SLEEVE REMOVAL SPIDER WEB THREAD ULTRA FINE LINES, SEEN UNDER BRIGHT LIGHT. SO WITH NOTHING ELSE, I WOULD GRADE THE AUDIO  :: EX+ .

LABELS   :: SPOTLESS :: EX+ .

ORIGINAL POLYLINED INNER :: NO WRITING, BUT THERE IS A SMALL SEAM SPLIT IN THE MIDDLE ON ALL THREE SIDES, AND OF COURSE THE VINYL WILL COME IN A NEW POLYLINED INNER ALONG WITH THE ORIGINAL :: VG/VG+ .

YOU WILL REALLY KICK YOURSELF IF YOU MISS THE END OF THIS AUCTION, AS THE ALBUM IS IN LOVELY ALL ROUND CONDITION, EARLIEST 1Y//1 2Y//1 PRESS, WITH ORIGINAL COVER AND INNER !!!! THANK YOU AS ALWAYS FOR YOUR TIME !!!  ROSE.

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 !
