THIS WAS NOT A BIG SELLER AND AS SUCH WAS PROBABALY DELETED WITHIN A FEW MONTHS OF ISSUE.MANY COPIES  WERE PLAYED AT PARTIES WITH DAMAGE CAUSED SO OFTEN ON POOR EQUIPMENT  

YOU MIGHT FIND CHEAPER COPIES BUT I DOUBT THEY WILL BE AS GOOD AS THIS EXAMPLE! 

YOU'LL LOVE IT FOR YEARS AND HOPEFULLY WILL RETURN TO ME AGAIN!   

SUPERB SOUND PLUS THE ADDED ADVANTAGE OF THE BASS THAT CANNOT BE MATCHED ON CD!!

The previous owner was not a smoker and so this item doesn't stink of that dreadful stale smoke!!!!Lovely pressing!! Warm sound!!.

 I test on a lightweight pickup of approx 2 grammes and listen with the treble full on and no filtering or mono switch used.
