Description
VINYL : GOOD +, has some light hairlines/scratches and strange surface marks at the beginning of both sides that looks like it has had a reaction to the plastic liner. This causes a louder hissing noise when it rotates past this for 5-8 minutes each side gradually getting softer. That is why I have graded it lower. The rest of the lp plays around VG + or better.
COVER : VERY GOOD +, these sleeves can come in single or gatefold sleeve. This one is a single sleeve. All these sleeves can have some ring marks, stains, writing on them, small tears, seam splits, staple marks, foxing, coffee stains etc. Hopefully, not all have these things together though. This is a generalization over all of the defects they can have.
LABELS : EXCELLENT, a few very light spindle marks.

MINE HAS NO CUE SHEETS! THESE LPS HAVE BEEN SITTING IN A CUPBOARD FOR 40 ODD YEARS, WITH DUST GETTING INTO THE SLEEVES AND INTO THE GROOVES. I HAVE CLEANED AND PLAYED EACH LP AND MY GRADING IS BASED ON LISTENING AS WELL AS VISUAL. SO PLEASE DON'T BID IF YOU DON'T LIKE SOME STATIC, CRACKLE OR THE OCCASIONAL POPS/CLICKS, BECAUSE MOST OF THE BBC TRANSCRIPTION LPS I WILL PUT UP FOR AUCTION DO PLAY WITH STATIC AND SOME CRACKLE AND THE OCCASIONAL POPS/CLICKS WHICH WILL VARY WITH EACH LP. BEWARE OF BLACK/WHITE LABEL BOOTLEG / COUNTERFEITS! THIS BBC LP I CAN'T FIND ANY INFORMATION ON SO I WOULD SAY IT IS A RARE ONE, AND HAS NOT SOLD ON THE NET BEFORE NOW. SOME GREAT SONGS ON THIS LP. This is a UK pressing on the BBC TRANSCRIPTION Label, Cat. No : 495 RECORDS MADE FOR THE RADIO STATIONS AIRPLAY ONLY. THEY WERE SENT TO ALL COMMONWEALTH COUNTRIES, BBC, ABC (OR SIMILAR) RADIO BROADCASTERS THROUGHOUT THE WORLD. THEY WERE NOT MADE IN BIG NUMBERS AND DEFINITELY NOT MADE FOR PUBLIC DISTRIBUTION. MAYBE 50 - 100 OR SO IN THE WORLD. WHAT MAKES THEM EXTREMELY DESIRABLE TO COLLECTORS IS THE FACT THAT A LOT OF THE RECORDINGS ON THE BBC TRANSCRIPTION ALBUMS ARE SONGS THE ARTISTS DID LIVE IN THE BBC STUDIOS AND ONLY FOR THAT PARTICULAR DISC AND THAT TIME ONLY, TRUE ONE OFF'S, SO THEY ARE UNHEARD GEMS THAT NOT MANY PEOPLE WILL GET AROUND TO LISTEN TO. THIS MAKES THEM VERY RARE AND WORTH HAVING, IF THAT'S WHAT YOU'RE INTO. VERY RARELY COME UP FOR SALE, SO NOT MANY AVAILABLE TO BUY THESE DAYS. THEY ARE ALSO WELL KNOWN FOR THEIR GREAT SOUND QUALITY.
