Both surfaces clean with just a few marks on Side One but the are purely superficial and have no effect on the sound

Plays beautifully throughout with practically nothing to fault.
A little low-level background surface on "Let The Wind Blow" otherwise no clicks, ticks or pops and very clean
SLEEVE: EXCELLENT+
Lovely deep, unworn gloss to the front laminated, sharp edges and spine where all text is clear and bold and a pretty clean back
