Description

First UK edition. Released in a gatefold cover with company inner sleeves and Vertigo “swirl” labels. THIS version is the first UK press with the label credit to Alucard Music under SIDE A & SIDE B credits.


VG+ Play tested, although it looked to have very few marks, there is a little bit of crackle in some of the quiet moments but otherwise an excellent listen.

Sleeve looks free of any damage.
