Description

Rare first pressing debut 1973 LP by this excellent British progressive quartet, presented here in reasonably good condition. This example is on the original blue/black hexagonal MCA label. The matrix numbers are 7-LNMG-275 2L/7-LNMG-276 1L.

Single sleeve – VG. Rather ‘tired’ in places, with handling marks around the opening edge. There is also visible ringwear and scuffing on the reverse. The spine is fully readable. Overall the sleeve is intact and really not too bad for its age.

Labels – VG+. A fair amount of spindlewear but otherwise very clean indeed.

Record – Visually VG+. Light hairlines seen under a strong light. Sound quality is very good, with just some light crackle in places. There is a small half cm scratch on the final track of Side 2 which produces a few clicks.

Original Decca inner bag – VG. Shows correct release date of 5/73 (May 1973). Handling marks but otherwise intact.

I grade all records strictly using the 'Record Collector' system.
