THE SLEEVE
THE SUPERBLY ILLUSTRATED GATEFOLD SLEEVE IS IN VERY GOOD CONDITION WITH GENERAL WEAR, DISCOLOURATION AND SOME STAINS. THERE IS SOME LIGHT FEATHERING TO THE OPENING AND SOME LIGHT RUBBING TO AREAS ALONG THE EDGES AND AT THE CORNERS. OTHERWISE THE EDGES ARE NICE AND STRAIGHT AND SOME OF THE TEXT ON THE SPINE IS STILL LEGIBLE.
THE VINYL
VISUALLY THE VINYL APPEARS TO BE IN GOOD CONDITION AND UNDER BRIGHT LIGHT I CAN SEE LOADS OF LIGHT MARKS, SCUFFS AND SOME SCRATCHES. I HAVE CAREFULLY PLAYED THIS GREAT ALBUM THROUGHOUT BOTH SIDES AND MADE THE FOLLOWING NOTES: 1) BOTH SIDES PLAYED THROUGH WITHOUT JUMPING OR STICKING; 2) THERE IS PERSISTENT SURFACE NOISE; 3) THERE ARE PLENTY OF CLICKS AND POPS.
THE LABELS
THE ORIGINAL ORANGE & BLACK LABELS ARE IN VERY GOOD+ CONDITION WITH LOADS OF SPINDLE MARKS.
