Vinyl -  Visual - Vg+/Ex- - The record looks in excellent condition with only a few small scratches and a couple of light hairlines, Side 1 has a few small scratches and scuffs on the edge at the start of track 1, also there's a light hairline across track 1, Side 2 has a light hairline  across the 2nd half of the side. Playback - Ex - The record plays excellent throughout, the only small blemish heard is a couple of small clicks and tics near the start of track 1 on side 1, nothing obvious further was heard and it's a great listen - no skips or Jumps etc.

Some small static tics and/or small static crackle is a normal feature of most Vinyl Pressings.  

Sleeve - Vg  - Provided in the original gate-fold sleeve as pictured, it has some age related wear, it has some dis-colouration due to age, on the front cover a sticker covers a previous sticker tear in the top corner at the opening edge, there is another small tear on the front cover at the bottom corner at the opening edge, I have tried to show these in the pictures, nothing too major considering it's age - see pics, the sleeve is un-laminated and is Printed By MacNeil Press Ltd, London.

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.
