Issued on Asylum on 6th September 1978..K 53088..UK pressing in a gatefold sleeve.. I has A1/B1 matrix numbers and is a first pressing.. Like nearly all the albums that I will be listing over the next few weeks,it,s in top condition.. The disc looks EX++ (At least)..It's clean and still has a great sheen.. There are a couple of tiny scuffs on the second track on side one and one at the beginning of side 2..They are really minimal and hardly worth mentioning..The disc has NO nasty scratches or scuffs and it's plain to see that this disc has been really well looked after.. The play grade is Near Mint..There are a couple of very light clicks on the first track and on the run in groove on that side..The rest of the disc plays perfectly...It's got a clean and undistorted sound..There are no other clicks or pops..Even the track links and run in grooves play silent..There is no crackle at all.. The disc plays flat on the deck with no edge warps or dishing.. The labels are undamaged (factory fresh!)..There is absolute minimal spindle wear..I would be surprised if this has had more than a couple of plays.. The sleeve is EX+..It is in top condition..It has the lightest cornerwear that you could imagine and just the tiniest hint of dischape to the back panel of the gatefold.. It's clean!.. It has no rips,tears,seam splits,stains scribble,stickers or other such defects...The edges are straight,the spine is square with clearly legible text..The colours are bright and unfaded..
