CONDITION (using RRPG grading):
VINYL: EXCELLENT+. Both sides of this stunning 131g vinyl have a nicely-retained deep, black sheen.
Just a few faint paper sleeve "removal" marks and a couple of other very light hairline marks on each side - most of which can only be seen when viewed at an angle and under a strong halogen lamp.
Both sides of vinyl have a few light static "pops" and a very minor amount of background "hiss" between a couple of the tracks and in the very quiet parts of the LP.
Track 1 on Side 2 has some audible "hiss" at the end of the music, for about eight revolutions - before disappearing completely.
This first UK press has a loud, strong and well-defined audio reproduction - you will not be disappointed with its AWESOME playback.
Audio playback ranges from 7-8.5/10 throughout - with Side 1 audio at 7.5-8.5/10 and Side 2 audio at 7-8.5/10.
Record sits flat, has no warps and plays through perfectly with no sticks, skips or jumps.
SLEEVE: EXCELLENT++. Very light wear. No bumps, tears, folds, stickers or writing.
SPINE: EXCELLENT++. Very light wear. No tears, bumps or folds.
LABELS: EXCELLENT++. Just a few light spindle marks - most of which are only visible when viewed at an angle and under a strong halogen lamp. No writing, tears or stickers.
OTHER: Inner paper sleeve is EXCELLENT+. No folds, bumps, splits, tears, stickers or writing.
Changes '69 catalogue is EXCELLENT++ (very close to near mint) with a couple of fingermarks. Staples still intact and all edges are sharp. No folds, tears, bumps, stickers or writing. Very nice piece!
