Various – Glompus Van De Hloed's 'Tales From The Crypt' (Comedy Radioplay LP) (1981)
Good British release. Written by Rory McGrath, this is classic British comedy.

Featuring the well-known British comedians Andrew Sachs, Chrissy Roberts, Griff Rhys Jones, Mel Smith and Rory McGrath.
Music composed and performed by The Stargazers.
 
Condition (refer also to notes at bottom):
VINYL: VG+. A few residual marks near outer ring of side 1 but no scratches. Side 2 is clean with no marks or hairlines. No deep scratches anywhere. Played just pre-listing and sound clarity is superb throughout. Light surface noise at run-ins and during quieter sequences. Plays with no skipping, jumping or sticking. A superb listening experience to an 80s gem.
OUTER SLEEVE/COVER: F. Colours are clear and unfaded. Lovely gloss sleeve front and back. Lots of creasing in from sides and a few curved creases across front. Residual damage and obvious tear near top right corner. Scuffing to edges, spine badly damaged but text just readable. Corners badly scuffed but aperture in good shape with only mild nicks. Dry watermark stains in from top edge. Back sleeve has similar creases in from top edge and spine and a few dents as well as a tear in bottom right corner. Overall a very good example apart from front damage so only fair. INNER SLEEVE: EX. Original. White paper with curved corners. Folding and creasing but clean and intact.

ITEM CONDITION - items are graded according to Record Collector definitions - see below:

MINT: The record itself is in brand new condition with no surface marks or deterioration in sound quality. The cover and any extra items such as the lyric sheet, booklet or poster are in perfect condition. Records advertised as Sealed or Unplayed should be Mint.

EXCELLENT: The record shows some signs of having been played, but there is very little lessening in sound quality. The cover and packaging might have slight wear and / or creasing.

VERY GOOD: The record has obviously been played many times, but displays no major deterioration in sound quality, despite noticeable surface marks and the occasional light scratch. Normal wear and tear on the cover or extra items, without any major defects, is acceptable.

GOOD: The record has been played so much that the sound quality has noticeably deteriorated, perhaps with some distortion and mild scratches. The cover and contents suffer from folding, scuffing of edges, spine splits, discolouration, etc.

FAIR: The record is still just playable but has not been cared for properly and displays considerable surface noise; it may even jump. The cover and contents will be torn, stained and / or defaced.

POOR: The record will not play properly due to scratches, bad surface noise, etc. The cover and contents will be badly damaged or partly missing.

BAD: The record is unplayable or might even be broken, and is only of use as a collection filler.
