THE VINYL   EX+ STRONG   INCREDIBLE  CONDITION

As you can see, this vinyl is the  ORIGINAL 1976 YELLOW LABEL PRESSING WITH 'ALLEN' ETCHINGS - Stored from new this LP has seen possibly a handful of plays only, and plays superb.

Easily as good a copy as we have ever auctioned.. Becoming so collectable in this complete first edition

This pressing is a superb vinyl which has retained its amazing glossy sheen and finish. There is no dulling anywhere and overall it is in incredible condition for an LP of this age. The edges are silky smooth, typical of these vintage pressings. We are seing fewer and fewer copies of this LP, so rarely do we see a copy at all, let alone like this.

a couple of spider lines around the centre hole, and no wear to the spindle hole whatsoever.

SURPLUS WAX AROUND THE SPINDLE

There are  a few light whisp lines, a couple fo tiny hairlinesnd thats it-  nothing else!  Clearly this LP has been archived for many many years, a few little dust specs are on the vinyl when we slid it for checking..

IT REMAINS IN ASTONISHING CONDITION.

On playing through we heard nothing bar the tiniest of lead in static in the dead grooves..and the odd light crackle in the dead grooves it sounds superb

'last resort', 'pretty maids', 'hotel intro'...stunning!!!!!!!! 

The LP has some light dust on it where it has ben archived for so long, so a professional hoover cleaner will remedy this to even better play!!

OVERALL THIS IS SIMPLY A MUST FOR ANY FINAL UPGRADE COLLECTION. YOU WILL NOT SEE BETTER.

THE LABELS   MINT  FLAT MATT LABELS

THE SLEEVE     MINT  oh wow!!!!!

Correct  first UK issued earliest FLAT MATT sleeve  -with the SUPER WIDE spine.
