VINYL LP - 1ST PRESS   MATRIX/RUNOUT (Side A):  ILPS 9115 * A//1 1 3 1 (Side B):  ILPS 9115 * //1 ?? First press of this release, with 'white i' on pink 'Island' label. Gatefold un-laminated cover, with inner spread that's packed with folklore text & images.
Two-part gatefold construction, with upper & lower internal glue-tabs (Left-hand wallet glued closed).
(Later covers have slightly 'darker' purple print) Vinyl ~ Nice shine with a few light surface marks There are some background clicks and crackles in places during track 1 and less so in track 2 on both sides. They are not loud nor overpowering. There may be a little low-level noise, but very random. This grades a very strong VG+ on playback. Visually it's EX.

Sleeve is EX+. Very little wear with a few age-related marks. (see photos)

Grading System
In order to assist everyone who buys and sells rare discs, Record Collector magazine has originated a set of standards for the condition of second-hand records, cassettes and CDs. The seven standard condition categories, and a description of what each one means, are listed below:
MINT (M) : The record itself is in brand new condition with no surface marks or deterioration in sound quality. The cover and any extra items such as the lyric sheet, booklet or poster are in perfect condition. Records advertised as Sealed or Unplayed should be Mint.
EXCELLENT (EX) : The record shows some signs of having been played, but there is very little lessening in sound quality. The cover and packaging might have slight wear and/or creasing.
VERY GOOD (VG) : The record has obviously been played many times, but displays no major deterioration in sound quality, despite noticeable surface marks and the occasional light scratch. Normal wear and tear on the cover or extra items, without any major defects, is acceptable.
GOOD (G) : The record has been played so much that the sound quality has noticeably deteriorated, perhaps with some distortion and mild scratches. The cover and contents suffer from folding, scuffing of edges, spine splits, discoloration, etc.
FAIR (F) : The record is still just playable but has not been cared for properly and displays considerable surface noise; it may even jump.
The cover and contents will be torn, stained and/or defaced.
POOR (P) : The record will not play properly due to scratches, bad surface noise, etc. The cover and contents will be badly damaged or partly missing.
BAD (B) : The record is unplayable or might even be broken, and is only of use as a collection-filler.
