THE RECORD SIDE 1 - THE ODD FAINT SURFACE MARK,FAINT SPINDLE MARKS AROUND THE CENTRE. NO SKIPS or JUMPS THERE IS A SLIGHT WARP.DOES NOT EFFECT THE PLAYING,BUT THIS WOULD DEPEND ON THE TRACKING WEIGHT OF YOUR TONE ARM. THERE IS SURFACE NOISE THROUGHOUT THE WHOLE SIDE,OBVIOUSLY MOST NOTICEABLE IN THE QUIETER SECTIONS. THERE ARE MARKS ON THE RECORD,THAT APPEAR AS A 'RIPPLE' EFFECT.I PRESUME THIS MAYBE FROM AN ATTEMPT TO CLEAN THE RECORD,AND IT WAS PUT INTO THE POLY LINED INNER SLEEVE BEFORE IT HAD PROPERLY BEEN ALLOWED TO DRY.
