This album was produced and engineered by Nicholas Parker. The lovely portrait of Huggett was taken by Mike Evans. There are informative liner notes on the reverse side of the jacket by Tim Crawford, printed in English only.
CONDITION:
The gradations of condition I use are as follows: MINT, Near-Mint, Excellent, Very Good, Good, Fair, Poor.
The condition of the jacket is EXCELLENT. There is minor wear at the lower-left corner and mild discoloration to the rear panel, but that is all. There are no seamsplits, bends, owners' markings, or other defects, and the whole remains solid, bright, and glossy, and highly attractive – overall, an excellent collector's copy.
The condition of the LP is near-MINT and playback is superb – overall, a truly fine collector's copy.
