LISTEN BEFORE BIDDING
Listen to the whole record before bidding (audio is not visible or playable on mobile apps).

This is the Pentangle 'Sweet Child' LP on the Transatlantic label from 1968.  The cover is still in very good condition with some creasing and scuffing.  The labels are in excellent condition with signs of spindle marks.  The vinyl has 1st press matrix numbers (see below).  The vinyl looks excellent (overall), really bright and clean with light surface/sleeve removal marks.  Playback is excellent with virtually no surface noise except some mild distortion on few tracks.  If you are intending to make a bid please play and listen to the audio of the record to judge for yourself.

NOTES:
Rare folk rock album by The Pentangle from 1968.  Original laminated gatefold cover release from 1968 on the white/purple Transatlantic label..  The cover is still in very good condition with a few noticeable creases to the cover  The edges have little very little scuffing but there is some wear to the spine.  There are visible light spindle marks on the labels, but the labels themselves are in excellent condition.  The vinyl looks excellent overall with a few light surface marks on each side.  The LP plays really nicely with hardly any audible surface noise except some mild distortion on few tracks.  So overall not visually in mint condition but still a very nice copy of this hard to find classic album.  Please play the audio and look at the photos to create your own opinion of its condition.

I tend to be over critical of a records condition as it is not my intention to misrepresent what I am selling.  I want the buyer to feel what they have bought is as described although not everyones opinion of its condition will be the same as mine.

If you have any doubts or questions about this record, please ask me and I will try to be as helpful as I can.
