Description

There are some records on vinyl that sound frankly 'Wow' on this format, this is definitely one of them.
This is a lovely copy owned by myself since new. There are some light surface marks (from new) on both sides, though aside from some light crackling on the run-ins on both sides, and a single 'pop' at the beginning of side 1 it plays beautifully. It's been professionally cleaned (for a second time just a week ago) and sleeved in Nagaoka 102 anti-static sleeves, again since new.
The sleeve has some light wear marks with a horizontal mark on the front cover at GM's eye level, but otherwise both the inner and outer sleeve are excellent.
If you've not heard this album on vinyl, whether you buy this one or another copy, just do it! I won't try to explain why, just listen…………………………………

Good luck and of course if you've any questions then please ask

Just to clarify, in response to a question, the 'pop' is approximately 10 seconds into the 1st track.

**** Having just listened to the album to double check in good time before a potential 'sale' I wish to point out to those interested, that there is some light background noise about halfway through side one/track 3. There are a few very light linear marks in this area (and a couple on both sides) which I can only imagine were caused by handling between pressing and sale and may also have something to do with the cardboard inner sleeve (replaced by myself with new inner sleeve as mentioned)……………………. As I've said, the overall sound quality is frankly superb and my current set-up (LP12/Ekos 2 etc) may be more sensitive to this. As I've said before though the overall sound is 'wow', but I consider it only proper to mention this. ****
