Side 1: Peace - A Beginning / Pictures Of A City / Cadence And Cascade / In The Wake Of Poseidon
Side 2: Catfood / The Devil's Triangle / Peace - An End

LABELS: MINT-
Clean, fresh and unmarked labels with a strong, vibrant pink colour and only one light spindle trace per side
VINYL Visual: MINT-
Both surfaces retain their original deep, like-new glossy sheen and are unmarked. The record does however undulate when revolving on the turntable - but this had no effect on the sound at all on my system
VINYL Audio: MINT
Play-checked at loud volume the sound performance is absolutely stunning - plays with nothing to fault - no scratches, no clicks or pops, no groove-wear or distortion and no prominent surface noise - the quiet framing tracks - Peace; A Beginning/Peace; An End and the uncredited acoustic intro to Side Two are beautifully clean - as is the rest of the LP - a really exceptional copy
SLEEVE: NEAR MINT
Crisp, sharp and fresh with none of the common rubbing to the heavily textured surfaces and sharp and square edges and spine - where all text is clear and bold - beautiful example - the finest you could wish for
INNER SLEEVE: EXCELLENT++
The original poly-lined inner sleeve is clean with just some age-related discolouration to the edges, no seam splits

ALL RECORDS ARE PACKAGED WITH THE VINYL OUTSIDE OF THE SLEEVE TO PREVENT ANY 'KNIFING' DURING TRANSIT
A PROTECTIVE POLY SLEEVE, NEW INNER SLEEVE WITH ANTI-STATIC LINER, QUALITY BOX (NOT ENVELOPE) MAILER AND AMPLE STIFFENERS ARE ALWAYS USED TO ENSURE THAT YOUR RECORD ARRIVES SAFELY
