Man : Slow Motion A2/B2 1st Press 1974
Time is against me so I will not be able to give my usual detailed description on the next few records. However, I will still be playing every track in full so as to provide a 'complete' grade and will add a few notes on the audio, cover, inner sleeve etc.
The clarity of sound on this first pressing is superb! S1 is 'as new' aside from a couple of light ticks on 'Hard Way To Die' and just one near the end of 'Grasshopper'. The other two tracks on the side have no 'background' and 'You Don't Like Use' has only the bare minimum of inner groove distortion. S2 if anything is even better - the playback is so impressive and the gentle 'Rainbow Eyes' plays with STUNNING clarity with just one very light tick. 'Day And Night' ends the side with very powerful audio and again plays with no intrusive distortion.
The vinyl still has a lovely glossy sheen with no scratches and has only a little 'mottling' which has no affect on the superb audio, it is very faint. There are only a small number of very faint hairlines and the labels are very clean with very little spindle wear.
This is another Man cover in fantastic condition, almost 'as new'. The only wear is one small rub on the bottom left corner. The original inner has just one tiny side split on the left and one minor rub on the right side and on the bottom edge. It has no marking and barely any creasing.
