Stored from new this LP has seen A COUPLE OF plays only, for review the stored!!  and remains in pristine condition everywhere.

IT PLAYS STUNNING...STRAIGHT!

This pressing is a superb vinyl which has retained its amazing glossy sheen and finish.

a couple of spider lines around the centre hole, and no wear to the spindle hole whatsoever.

There are a few light whisp lines where ther vinyl has slid from that card inner , and thats it-  nothing else!  Clearly this LP has been archived for many many years, a few little dust specs are on the vinyl when we slid it for checking..

On playing through we heard nothing  in the dead grooves bar the tiniest slight static ...it sounds like new as it could be!
