Description

*I am currently selling a collection of Heavy Metal and rock LPs, predominantly from the mid 70’s to the early 90’s but with the odd outlier thrown in. All well looked after and some real rarities. I combine shipping and always remove the vinyl from the sleeve before packing and posting. Where anything other than a generic white inner is present, the vinyl is always placed in a brand new white inner to preserve the original. Brand new ‘clear glass’ plastic sleeves are added to all LPs. I describe items accurately as I know how disappointing it is to receive a much anticipated record where flaws have been glossed over or gone unmentioned. I try to listen to each record before describing it but if I don’t have time I will listen to selected parts to gauge the level of background noise and I will always listen to any passages where there are surface marks to judge the impact these have. I always give positive feedback after payment so the customer is able to give feedback purely judged on the service once they have received the item. If you are unhappy in any way I will refund with no questions asked. Thank you for your interest in this listing and please check out my other records.*


This listing:


Black Sabbath

Blackest Sabbath

Vertigo 1987

A fascinating compilation on double vinyl, spanning the first 17 years of the band’s existence and, really, its like listening to four different bands. There are two sides of Ozzy era classics, A side of Dio and a side from when some might say the band lost their way - Born Again/Seventh Star/Eternal Idol all represented.

This is a Mint copy - the vinyls look unplayed. I have playtested segments and the audio is faultless.

The sleeve is Excellent+ to Near Mint throughout and the two original inners show very little evidence of handling.


All misprints denoting first pressing in place:

B1 is titled Snowblind on the release, but is in fact Wheels Of Confusion (cut about 2 min. shorter than original version).

Mike Butcher is mistakenly credited as composer of B3.

Children of the Sea spelt Children of the ‘See’ on the label.


A really top copy.
