JETHRO TULL

THIS WAS

ISLAND ILP 985 MONO

MATRIX No’s

SIDE A: ILP+985+A

SIDE B: ILP+985+B

The front laminated gatefold cover is in very good condition with some wear on the corners and some creases, but without any laminate lifting. There is no writing or stickers on the cover

The inside non laminated gatefold cover is in very good condition with both flip backs completely intact and with some creasing

The spine is in very good condition with all text readable, but has flattened over time

The rear laminated gatefold cover is in excellent condition with no laminate lifting. There is some wear on the corners

The labels are excellent condition with no writing, stickers, tears or heavy wear

The inner sleeve is not the original and I will replace with a new white sleeve

Visually, the record is in very good condition with signs of having been played carefully. There are surface marks but these do not cause any major problems. There are no loud pops, clicks, skips or sticks and the record lies flat on the turntable.

Overall I am grading the playing quality in at least VG to a very close EX.

The record has been played very loud through headphones to achieve the fairest and most accurate grading and will probably sound even better through an amp and speakers
