All records are graded to the Record Collector Guidelines, with extra information added as required when play tested. Also all photos above are of the exact record you will receive if purchased.

This record is in very good condition. It does have spindle marks visible on each label but there are no pen marks. There is no major scuffs or damage but there is a few scuffs to the right top area of label 1. There is also light fading in parts. Overall the labels are generally tidy but do show signs of use with the spindle marks and few scuffs(on label 1) as mentioned.

As for the vinyl themselves all four sides are free from anything deep or that can be felt but there is light scratches, sleeve marks and general signs of use/age showing. There is nothing really major as I say but there is light lines on all four sides, which show more obviously when angled or under bright light. Overall a used vintage lp that is not perfect but is also free of any really nasty issues.

I play tested the records and they produced enjoyable audio throughout but also audio that was not perfect. They lay flat on the deck and upon playing there was minimal arm movement. The audio was free of skips or sticks and has no prolonged series of loud tics. There was however some noises and interference in parts. I noted some surface noise and spluttering in the run ins and intros to all four sides. I also picked up 4 or 5 tics at the start of track 3 on side 1, just before the vocal begins. There was also some crunches and noises at the end of track 2(side 2) between tracks 2 and 3 and just into track 3. Generally speaking most of the album plays well but there is a few noises in parts. I cannot mention ever noise or pop but those mentioned above are the worst of any. Most of the audio is better than a grade of VG but the record is graded at VG due to the occasional interference and signs of age/use showing to the records.

The gatefold sleeve is in very good condition. It has wear and rubbing to the edges and corners with the writing along the spine now no longer legible. There are no splits or really weak areas however and the sleeve is solid despite having wear. There is also no tears, scuffs or pen marks. There is some creasing however and also some fading to both sides. There is also light ring marks, some grubbiness to the sticker on the front and slightly heavier creasing around the record entry edges/areas. Overall a solid sleeve but one that has signs of its age and is certainly not perfect. I have tried to describe the sleeve as best I can but please study the pictures provided to gain as much information as possible as to its condition.

It contains both its original lyric inners which is in very good condition. Both have wear to the edges, creasing and signs of age/handling. One also has a 2" split to the bottom edge. There are no tears or pen marks but there is ring marks. The records will be sent in brand new plain white replacements to ensure no further wear occurs to the originals.

I hope my photos are comprehensive enough but if you have any questions then don't hesitate to contact me. Also please check my eBay feedback for a positive history of record grading, A1 communication and quick delivery times.
