The record is in excellent condition. When viewed in natural strong light the surfaces are extremely clean except one sides has a mark that follows the run of the record, which produces a "tsk" sound for a split second, a few extremely light wispy sleeve removals can be seen when tilted in strong artificial light which do not effect the sound. Lovely Clean playing surfaces, Great STEREO Sound, superb AUDIO, with vibrant sound for the songs, quiet in between tracks, no skips, jumps or sticking. The music has some awesome interplay between the saxophone and particularly the extremely funky guitar playing. The female vocal by Anna Meek is very comparable to post punk bands such as X-ray Spex, The Slits and Essential Logic. Truly Progressive music considering it is from 1971!!
The labels are NM, extremely clean, no writing, and maybe 1 or 2 light spindle marks (also has a tight spindle hole), nothing obvious and a few fine ones can be seen on Side B when tilted into strong light. No discolouration to the whiteness of the labels.
The fully matt "Non Laminate" Gatefold sleeve, is in overall VG Condition, with some storage wear and a split to bottom edge of the cover on the side which houses the vinyl, poor spine where the writing can only just be read. Internally the cover is EX, nice clean whiteness with slight shadowing, no writing
If you haven't got a fortune to spend on a UK 1st this could be just the solution
