THE RECORD IS IN NEAR MINT CONDITION , NO SCRATCHES , SCUFFS , CLICKS OR POPS TO EITHER SIDE , AND THE ONLY FAINT BACKGROUND CRACKLE I HEARD WAS BETWEEN A COUPLE OF THE TRACKS , NOT IN ACTUAL PLAY .
THE RECORD STILL RETAINS IT'S ORIGINAL GLOSS AND SOUNDS CLEAR AND VIBRANT AS IF JUST PRESSED .
BOTH LABELS ARE IN UNMARKED NEAR MINT CONDITION , WITH JUST A COUPLE OF SMALL LIGHT SPINDLE MARKS TO SIDE 2 , BUT THESE WERE ONLY SEEN WHEN CHECKING BY MAGNIFICATION .
THE VINYL IS IN SUPERB CONDITION BOTH SONICALLY AND VISUALLY .
