All the tracks are pure quality Small Faces at their best!!!! Any fan of Small Faces, or 60s music in general, will want to have this in their collection!!!! 

The record labels are in BRILLIANT condition (see pictures) with NO wear (apart from a TINY invisible touch on 1 label), NO writing, and only a few light spindle marks!!!! The vinyl isnt in PERFECT condition - though it still plays VERY well indeed!!!!  Under first inspection in normal bright room conditions this record appears VERY nice indeed!!!!  However if you take a look directly under light you can see quite a few light hairlines, 3 or 4 light scufflines, and some VERY light general paper scuffing!!!! The record is still VERY bright and shiny looking and still a presentable example!!!!  It is great to find the record plays EVEN BETTER than the visual!!!!  The record plays well with NO nasty loud pops, only a few VERY light isolated clicks/pops, NO sticking, NO jumps, and only some VERY low level background crackle in places (NOT 'frying bacon' type crackle - this is always VERY low level indeed!)!!!!  There is NO distortion and NO groovewear either and this record still plays VERY well indeed!!!!  The record must MEGA STRICTLY visually grade Fair++++ if not better (NO sticks & NO jumps!) - with the playing grade better still!!!!  THIS RECORD STILL PLAYS VERY WELL INDEED!!!!  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 a 'round' plastic inner sleeve - which looks to be original!!!! The ULTRA RARE 'Earliest' 1st Press 'Garrod & Lofthouse' Circular 'Fold Out' Cover is in GREAT condition and is a VERY presentable example!!!!  It has barely ANY edge wear AT ALL, all the circles are VERY solidly joined, only a VERY few light creases (cover is VERY flat looking), NO rubbing, NO grubbyness, NO yellowing, and NO writing (apart from a VERY neat inscription on one of the inside circles)!!!!  There is also some clear INVISIBLE tape on each join (NOT shiny sellotape - this is clear 'paper' INVISIBLE tape - so it barely shows!) - though this looks to be unnecessary as all the joins look fine!!!!   The cover MUST grade Good (PROPERLY graded, NOT trashed) if not better and is VERY presentable indeed!!!!  THIS IS AN ABSOLUTELY SUPERB CHANCE FOR SOMEONE TO OWN THIS AMAZING RARITY AT A CHEAPER PRICE THAN THE HUGE FORTUNE REQUIRED TO OWN A MINT COPY!!!!  IT IS VERY PRESENTABLE AND PLAYS FINE!!!!  AND PLEASE ALSO REMEMBER THAT THIS IS THE 'EARLIEST' MONO 1ST PRESSING EVER MADE - AND IS OF THE UTMOST RARITY AS IT WAS CHANGED IMMEDIATELY AFTER THE RELEASE DATE!!!!  THIS LP IS SERIOUSLY RARE AND VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND - SO DONT MISS OUT ON THIS ULTRA RARE OPPORTUNITY!!!!
