Description
The Time Has Come/Anne Briggs Rare CBS UK FOLK LP IN EXCELLENT CONDITION. Condition is Used. Dispatched with Royal Mail 2nd Class.
Superb copy of this rare 1971 LP from Anne. The record itself, while played, is in excellent condition with the minimum of crackle. Really great condition.
I will play it again later tonight to make sure (05/04/20) on a Linn Sondek LP 12.
As is often the case, the sleeve has suffered from ringwear is it is almost 51 years old and is a little bit "tired" but still in very good shape. A previous owner has initialled it in the top left-hand corner on the rear of the sleeve, but it’s so small, it’s barely noticeable.
MORE PHOTOS TO FOLLOW OF THE ACTUAL ITEM FOR SALE AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.

UPDATE
I have added photos of the actual LP for sale and removed the two label photos from Discogs.
As you can see, the record is immaculate, the labels the same orange as issued in the 70s with neither darkening nor discolouration.
I was wrong about initials - someone has instead written 214 on the sleeve for reasons unknown.
I played the record in full last night. Delicate, plaintive, rich and warm in tone - a delight.
There are no jumps, skips or sticks. The record is a fine listen from start to finish with slight and occasional crackle on just a couple of tracks. The "worst " offender would be "Standing On The Shore" on Side Two, but it’s really very minor.
The sleeve is as described and as can be seen in the photos - wear and (a) tear here and there, ringwear on the front of sleeve and some wear in the spine. Otherwise intact without any major damage.
But it is the record that really shines - an incredible copy of this fine, simple , evocative record.
