THERE IS A SCRATCH ON THE TRACK "SORRY TO BE SO LONG" MAKING THIS TRACK UNPLAYABLE. OTHERWISE THE REST OF IT PLAYS WELL  

 

 

Released in 1970 on the ISLAND label, I have the pleasure of offering today this original and mega rare two x one sided test pressing of this classic folk album by JOHN & BEVERLEY MARTIN which is titled "THE ROAD TO RUIN. These one sided test pressings are seriously rare as they were only pressed in tiny quantity. This one that I am offering today has a scratch on the second track on disc 2  SORRY TO BE SO LONG which makes this track unplayable otherwise it is reasonably clean.
 

The album comes complete with its original E J Day matt single sleeve which is in near excellent condition. It is clean with no splits, stickers or unwanted writing etc and the spine is fully legible but it shows some light creasing. Overall a reasonably clean example.

 

The VINYLS, Both of the vinyls look pretty clean apart from the scratch on disc two. 
 

The SLEEVE, The E J Day matt single sleeve is near excellent, The spine is fully legible and there are no splits, stickers or unwanted writing etc but has some light creasing.  
 

The LABELS, The  white labels are very clean showing no spindle wear. Needless to say they are free from unwanted writing or stickers etc.
 

The INNERs, The generic inners are both clean and free from unwanted writing or splits etc.


 

I try to be accurate in my grading as I know what its like to buy miss graded items but won't insult you by writing song lyrics etc. If you feel I have not described this correctly I am happy to refund you providing I receive the item back in the same condition as it leaves me, But I can only refund one lot of postage, 

 

THIS RECORD WAS PLAY TESTED ON A LINN AXIS THROUGH A MUSIC FIDELITY AMP
