SIMON FINN - PASS THE DISTANCE..  Great VINYL LP that comes with it's original insert, please see the pictures of the labels for track listings.  1970 MUSHROOM label stereo vinyl LP 100 MR 2.   THIS RECORD IS OLD / FROM THE TIME, NOT a recent reissue, if you have any questions about numbers in run-offs or other identifying marks etc., then, please feel free to email me via ebays messaging service.

**CONDITION**

**When grading my items I follow Record Collector magazine's grading guide.** Therefore the front of the picture sleeve has some light ring wear marks + some storage rubs + a few little digs near the centre titles + there is a small, old bargain bin label '£1' price label on the top left corner, which unfortunately the previous owner tried to remove, this has caused a little bit of damage, (please see close-up picture), luckily he stopped before more damage was done. So the front cover would only rate  good +, the back of the cover is better and grades very good.  There is also a slight ripple to the overall cover, not sure what caused this, possibly the sleeve got damp at some stage way back in the past??, there is also a similar ripple to the INSERT, but you don't really notice it unless you stroke the cover and insert, this has not effected the record.  The insert also has some creases and some light marks and would rate very good.  The bottom edge of the cover has some storage rubs, but the spine is strong and clear = very good +. The labels = excellent.  The 'b' side of the LP visually = excellent and plays great, the 'a' side of the vinyl visually = excellent -, there is a mark on the 4th track that does cause approxiamately 34 very feint/very light little clicks, no jumps or sticks.  I am actually listening to the album as I write this, using headphones and playing the LP on my Technics deck and the tiny/feint clicks hardly warrant a mention, it certainly remains a pleasurable listen and a brilliant, beautiful album.

**    CONDITION GRADES    **                                                                                                   MINT = I NEVER REALLY USE THIS GRADE,  BUT IF I DID IT WOULD MEAN THAT THE ITEM IS IN A FACTORY FRESH/NEVER PLAYED CONDITION.                                                 EXCELLENT = RECORD SHOWS SOME SIGNS OF HAVING BEEN PLAYED, BUT THERE IS VERY LITTLE LESSENING IN SOUND QUALITY.  THE COVER AND PACKAGING MIGHT HAVE SOME SLIGHT WEAR AND/OR CREASING.                                                         VERY GOOD = THE RECORD HAS OBVIOUSLY BEEN PLAYED MANY TIMES, BUT DISPLAYS NO MAJOR DETERIORATION IN SOUND QUALITY, DESPITE NOTICABLE SURFACE MARKS AND THE OCCASIONAL LIGHT SCRATCH.  NORMAL WEAR AND TEAR ON THE COVER AND EXTRA ITEMS, WITHOUT ANY MAJOR DEFECTS.           THE GRADES MIGHT BE TWEAKED BY  +  AND  -  's.**

I WILL USUALLY TRY TO TEST/PLAY THE RECORD ON A VARIETY  OF DECKS/SYSTEMS ; TECHNICS SL1200, GEMINI 600II, NUMARK PT01 AND ION USB.
