As you can see, this vinyl is the  EARLIEST 1st A1 B1 PRESSING- Stored from new this LP remains in pristine AS NEW condition everywhere.

ETCHED MATRIX NUMBERS-  WITH THE PORKY ETCHINGS

This pressing is a superb vinyl which has retained its amazing glossy sheen and finish. There is no dulling anywhere and overall it is in incredible condition for an LP of this age.

*** Noted for the fact the UK hit single 'Rock and roll damnation' was not on the initial pressings of this LP -

AND INSTEAD FEATURES 'COLD HEARTED MAN' ***

There are some light whisp lines, a few light hairlinesthats it-  nothing else!  Clearly this LP has been archived for many many years, a few little dust specs are on the vinyl when we slid it for checking..

On playing through we heard some light static in the dead grooves..barely a hint of any static during play, & No jumps pops or skips.

OVERALL THIS IS SIMPLY A MUST FOR ANY FINAL UPGRADE COLLECTION. YOU WILL NOT SEE BETTER.
