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 excellent+ condition. They have a few faint spindle marks showing on the labels but there are no pen marks, scuffs or fading. There is no wear around the centres and overall they are clean, bright and in very nice condition.

As for the vinyl itself, it has a vivid lustre(shines a deep red when held to direct light) and has nothing at all major evident. There are a few faint and minor lines/marks showing in places when angled but again nothing major, and not loads. Overall the record is in very nice condition with no heavy marks or serious lines/scratches.

I play tested the record and it played well throughout. It lays flat on the deck with little to no movement in the record arm upon playing. The sound produced is nice and clear with little surface noise. There are no skips, sticks or annoying clicks (other than 5 or 6 incredibly light ones in the mellow intro to trsack 1 on side 2) and overall it played great with very nice clarity and excellent audio quality.

The textured gatefold sleeve is in near mint condition. It has hardly any rubbing to the edges and corners with all the text on the spine clearly legible. There is a small amount of minor wear at the top and bottom of the spine(see pics). There are no splits, tears, scuffs or pen marks and little to no creasing. There are barely any ring marks or discolouring and no serious issues at all. Inside the gatefold the booklet is present and attached. The staples show minor wear but no major issues. Please study the pictures provided to gain as much information as possible to its condition.

It contains its original plain white inner which is in very good+ condition with some discolouring and a small split to one edge.

The record will be packaged in between cardboard stiffeners and bubble wrapped thoroughly when dispatched. It will also be sent in a brand new protective plastic sleeve, and within 24hrs of receiving payment to ensure swift delivery.

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.

All offers are considered and are more than welcome.

Many thanks for looking.
