Black Sabbath – Greatest Hits

Black Sabbath were an English rock band, formed in Birmingham in 1968, by guitarist and main songwriter Tony Iommi, drummer Bill Ward, bassist and main lyricist Geezer Butler and singer Ozzy Osbourne. Black Sabbath are often cited as pioneers of heavy metal music. The band helped define the genre with releases such as Black Sabbath (1970), Paranoid (1970), and Master of Reality (1971). The band had multiple line-up changes, with Iommi being the only constant member throughout its history.

Side One: Paranoid; N.I.B.; Changes; Sabbath Bloody Sabbath; Iron Man.
Side Two: Black Sabbath; War Pigs; Laguna Sunrise; Tomorrow's Dream; Sweet Leaf.
The album is on NEMS Records, NEL 6009. Matrix side one: NEL 6009 A (written). Matrix side two: NEL 6009 B (written).
Released in 1977. Dutch pressing. Stereo.

Vinyl side 1: excellent (has a few light superficial marks that do not affect the audio in any way, plays excellent with no jumps, sticks or clicks and minimal crackle, has a slight warp that doesn’t affect the audion in any way).
Vinyl side 2: excellent (has a few light superficial marks that do not affect the audio in any way, plays excellent with no jumps, sticks or clicks and minimal crackle, has a slight warp that doesn’t affect the audion in any way).
Cover: (glossy) very good (very light corner and edge wear, a few creases mainly around the edges, name written in pen on back).
I have tried to give my honest opinion as to the condition. I will give a complete refund to the buyer if they are not happy with the record.
Any questions, don’t hesitate to ask.

RECORD COLLECTOR GRADING SYSTEM:
MINT: I very rarely use the mint grade. Only records that are still sealed or records that even under the strongest of lights are completely unmarked. Also covers that are unmarked/uncreased in any way and still look brand new.
EXCELLENT: The record shows some signs of having been played, but there is no lessening in sound quality. The cover and packaging might have slight wear and/or creasing.
VERY GOOD: The record has obviously been played many times, but displays no major deterioration in sound quality, despite noticeable surface marks and the occasional light scratch. Normal wear and tear on the cover or extra items, without any major defects, is acceptable.
GOOD: The record has been played so much that the sound quality has noticeably deteriorated, perhaps with some distortion and mild scratches. The cover and contents suffer from folding, scuffing of edges, spine splits, discoloration, etc.
FAIR: The record is still just playable but has not been cared for properly and displays considerable surface noise; it may even jump. The cover and contents will be torn, stained and/or defaced.
POOR: The record will not play properly due to scratches, bad surface noise, etc. The cover and contents will be badly damaged or partly missing.
BAD: The record is unplayable or might even be broken, and is only of use as a collection-filler. Payment strictly by PayPal only. Postal discounts available for multiple purchases - Please email for details.  859 (GS 7.0.21 (859))
