ALWAYS HAPPY TO COMBINE ITEMS TO SAVE ON POSTAGE

I am having a clear out of some of my art & prog rock records that I have accumulated over the years. I have owned these from new and most were bought when they first came out so will have first press matrix numbers.  Fleetwood Mac, Forest, Neu ,Faust  etc  As always I fully play test ALL of my records and don't guess as to how they sound.

    FLEETWOOD MAC          RUMOURS   
Includes 11.5" x 23" photo and lyric foldout insert. Early pressings had a lightly textured cover, 'Mastered By Capitol' and 'KP' marked in the runouts. They were also printed with a centered number "0798" in the middle of the spine on the LP cover. See photo.
      Matrix / Runout Runout side A, : BSK-1-3010  MASTERED BY CAPITOL        Matrix / Runout Runout side B, : BSK-2-3010  MASTERED BY CAPITOL                                                 
                                                  Side one plays as EX. Soft tics at the very end.                                                   Side two has a pesky pressing dimple on the final track that leaves 8                                                          heartbeats. This is NOT a scratch and again the rest plays as EX                                                      The disc has some sleeve removal marks.                                                                                                                                            The fold out inner is in great condition                                                       The matt textured sleeve is EX see photos.                                            All the seams are straight & true with a fully legible spine                                                                       
The disc will be sent with a separate inner from the printed one (if present) to avoid any chance of splitting. Also included is a new plastic sleeve and  the record will be sent in a custom made cardboard sleeve.                                                                     
 The vinyl plays as EX/EX (See below for definition)   
EXCELLENT ~ The record shows some signs of being played but there is very little lessening of the sound quality. There may be some light crackle but NO major problems like LOUD clicks. Occasional soft tics are acceptable. There may be hairlines. The cover and packaging might have slight wear and/or creasing.
I have just played this through for these listing purposes and I have to say is nice player with great stereo audio. Needless to say absolutely no sticks or skips etc.
THIS IS A SUPERB COPY OF AN ORIGINAL EXAMPLE OF THIS LANDMARK ALBUM.
