 I am continuing to offer records from my life long collection due to lack of space. All records have been play tested & will be cleaned with a proper wet vacuum cleaner & where necessary treated with a Milty anti static gun, & popped into a new anti static sleeve.

Kraftwerk : Trans Europe Express

YEAR   :   1977

FORMAT : Vinyl

CAT NUMBER : E-ST 11603

Record Label :  Capitol Records

GRADE / VINYL : EX

GRADE / SLEEVE : VG +

GENERAL CONDITION :

Both labels are clean, with some light spindle lines. The record is a nice glossy black, I need a strong light to see anything at all, but I can see some surface hairlines & a couple of scuffs but after a play test I can say they do not affect the sound at all. It plays perfectly, sound quality is superb & there is a very low background noise floor. There is a little minor noise in places but never enough to spoil the music & falls well within the scope of the grading. Plays with no jumps, loud pops or clicks or crackles.
The cover is generally good, the spine is okay a little hard to read because of some print loss. The corners are a little rounded, & there is some wear to the open edge, with a little yellowing on the back with a possible stain, though it could easily be sunlight damage, not sure. The original inner is present & unmarked. 
Please check the pictures to understand my additional notes, I try to be as fair as possible & note anything bad, but I am not perfect so mistakes are possible. I will not list any record that in my opinion worse than VG+ or that I would not be happy to play on my sound system.
I am happy for buyers to collect, for those unable to do so I offer 1st class UK posting.
Please note I will not post overseas due to past problems.

Thank you for looking, & happy bidding. Please check out my other items.

I make no money from postage and packing costs, and items are always insured to correct value. Collection from BH22 near Bournemouth is also welcome.
