The record labels are in STUNNING condition (see pictures) with NO writing, and only a few light spindle marks!!!!  The vinyl is in BRILLIANT condition!!!! Most of these 60s LPs had been to a lot of wild parties and are usually found totally worn out, and almost unplayable. This one is NOT and has NO scratches, only 2 or 3 light hairlines, only 2 or 3 light NON sounding scufflines, and only a VERY few of the lightest paper scuffs only visible under light!!!  THE RECORD STILL RETAINS ITS ORIGINAL 'JUST PRESSED' LOOK!!!! It is great to find that the playing of the record is as STUNNING as the visual!!!! It plays with NO nasty loud pops, NO sticking, NO jumps, barely ANY crackle AT ALL, and only some EXTREMELY low level touches of background sound on the run on grooves and VERY occassional gap - NOT in the music AT ALL!!!!  The record must grade Very Good++ if not better - and plays BRILLIANTLY!!!!  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 in its ORIGINAL 1st Press Emitex inner sleeve which is in STUNNING condition!!!! The 1st Press 'Garrod & Lofthouse' Flipback Laminated Cover is in BRILLIANT condition!!!! It has NO edge wear, NO spinal wear, only slight corner wear (NOT through the colour), only a VERY few light creases (cover is VERY flat looking), and NO writing!!!! The opening edge is beautifully straight with NO feathering!!!! Even the unlaminated back is in BRILLIANT condition with NO grubbyness, NO rubbing, barely ANY yellowing AT ALL, NO ringwear, NO writing, and only an old faded Export sticker on the top flipback - so clearly this LP was exported at some point in the past. The cover must grade Very Good++++ if not better!!!!  THIS LP IS MASSIVELY RARE AND INCREDIBLY HARD TO FIND - SO DONT MISS OUT ON THIS MEGA RARE OPPORTUNITY!!!!
