Description

Gentle giant Octopus vinyl LP First UK press on the Vertigo Swirl label Cat. no. 6360 080 1Y//1 and 2Y//1 matrices

Gatefold sleeve is in a clean and solid condition. Spine intact and perfectly readable. Opening edge still sharp. Just light edge and shelf wear but otherwise a very nice example. VG+
Vinyl is in good condition with many light surface scuffs and a few hairlines. Nothing deep or feelable. Good Labels have no writing, tears or stickers. Moderate spindle marks. Very Good Audio is nice. Plays through loud and clear with no sticks or jumps and no distortion. Just mild surface noise between tracks but nothing which detracts from the music. VG+

Overall a good playable copy of this rare first pressing with nice audio. Good/ Very good+

Gradings;

Mint: The record itself is in brand new condition with no surface marks or deterioration in sound quality. The cover and any extra items such as the lyric sheet, booklet or poster are in perfect condition.

Excellent: The record shows some signs of having been played, but there is very little lessening of sound quality. The cover and packaging might have slight wear and / or creasing.

Very Good: The record has obviously been played many times, but displays no major deterioration in sound quality, despite noticeable surface marks and the occasional light scratch. Normal wear and tear on the cover or extra items, without any major defects, is acceptable.

Good: The record has been played so much that the sound quality has noticeably deteriorated, perhaps with some distortion and mild scratches. The cover and contents suffer from folding, scuffing of edges, spine splits, discolouration etc..

Fair: The record is still just playable but has not been cared for properly and displays considerable surface noise: it may even jump. The cover and contents will be badly damaged or partly missing.

Poor: The record will not play properly due to scratches, bad surface noise etc.. The cover and contents will be badly damaged or partly missing.

Bad: The record is unplayable or might even be broken, and is only of use as a collection filler.
