This is The Slits 'Cut' UK LP on the Island label from 1979.  The album comes in a laminated cover with a printed thick cardboard inner sleeve.  The cover is still in excellent condition with some light creasing.  The labels are in excellent condition with hardly any sign of spindle marks.  The vinyl has 1st press matrix numbers (see below).  The vinyl looks excellent+ (overall), really bright and clean with a few light sleeve removal marks.  Playback is superb with virtually no surface noise except some very light crackle in places.  This is really nice well looked after vinyl.

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.
