The record labels are in AWESOME condition (see pictures) with NO wear, NO writing and barely ANY spindle marks AT ALL!!!! IT IS VERY CLEAR THAT THIS RECORD HAS BARELY BEEN PLAYED AT ALL!!!! The vinyl is in BRILLIANT condition and plays AMAZINGLY!!!!  Most of these 60s/70s LPs had been to a lot of wild parties and are usually found totally worn out, and almost unplayable. This one is NOT and has NO scratches, NO hairlines, only 2 light NON sounding scufflines, and only a VERY few of the lightest paper scuffs only visible under light!!!!  THE RECORD STILL RETAINS ITS ORIGINAL 'JUST PRESSED' LOOK!!!! It is also great to find that the playing of the record is as STUNNING as the visual!!!! It plays with NO pops, NO jumps, NO sticks, NO hiss and barely ANY crackle AT ALL!!!!  Not only that but the sound quality is CRYSTAL CLEAR and simply AWESOME with NO groovewear and NO distortion either!!!!  The record must grade Very Good++++ if not better - with the playing grade better still!!!! THIS RECORD PLAYS AMAZINGLY!!!! Believe me this record is NOT overgraded in ANY way!!!! I use STRICT RC grading standards - it is not in my interest not to!!!! Brillant!!!! The record also comes in its ORIGINAL 1st Press inner sleeve which is in AWESOME condition!!!! The ULTRA RARE 'Earliest' 1st Press 'Lighter Brown' Cover is in STUNNING condition and INCREDIBLY hard to find like this!!!! It has barely ANY edgewear AT ALL (virtually NONE), NO spinal wear, only VERY slight corner wear (NOT through the colour), only a VERY few light creases (cover is VERY flat looking), barely ANY yellowing AT ALL (MEGA rare on this cover), and NO writing!!!! There is some INCREDIBLY light general rubbing - but believe me this is as light as it gets and absolutely MILES better than the usual 'trashed' examples that turn up!!!!  Even the VERY vunerable brown cover back has barely ANY ringwear AT ALL - and that is REALLY tough to find on one of these 'Earliest' 1st Press 'Lighter Brown' Covers!!!! The opening edges are beautifully straight with NO feathering!!!! Even the unlaminated inside is in STUNNING condition with NO yellowing, NO writing, NO grubbyness, and barely ANY rubbing AT ALL!!!!  This cover is EXTREMELY hard to find in this BRILLIANT condition and must STRICTLY grade Very Good++++ if not better!!!!  THIS LP IS SERIOUSLY RARE AND VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND LIKE THIS - SO DONT MISS OUT ON THIS MEGA RARE OPPORTUNITY!!!!
