Note to Buyers:
I am not a dealer - just a newly retired old hippy downsizing and trying to find decent homes for my Vinyl collection before I croak and some dealer gets to hoover it all up.  All my LPs have been stored carefully over the years in individual poly-bags and with new inner poly inner sleeves where required.  I ship all the LPs in these bags and use either strong recylced cardboard or bespoke mailers.  Please pay via Paypal within 3 days. I aim to ship within 24 hours of payment being received. Check out my other items!

There has been a lot of interest in this LP and a question about the quality of the Vinyl.   I have categorised this LP as VG+ BUT it is not EX or EX+.

I WOULD LIKE TO PROVIDE THIS ADDITIONAL INFORMATION TO EXPLAIN WHY.   IT IS BASED ON A VERY RECENT TEST PLAY.

SIDE 1 HAS A FEW VERY LIGHT SURFACE MARKS AND A SMALL IMPERFECTION IN THE VINYL FROM PRESSING – NOT AUDIBLE.  THERE IS HOWEVER A SMALL MARK ON TRACK 2 WHICH IS AUDIBLE AS A SINGLE “CLICK”.

SIDE 2 ALSO HAS SOME VERY LIGHT SURFACE MARKS.

THE RECORD TRACKS AND PLAYS PERFECTLY.  BOTH SIDES ARE CLEAN AND SHINY.  HOWEVER THERE IS SOME SURFACE NOISE BUT I ONLY NOTICE THIS IN THE GAPS. 

I HAVE RIPPED PERFECTLY SERVICEABLE MP3s FROM THIS ALBUM. 

I hope this helps.  Thanks for your interest and keep bidding.
