The Cat. No is 6360 055 on the ORIGINAL 1st Press 'Spiral' Vertigo Label (see picture) and is a UK 1972 Stereo 1st pressing (there were NO Monos)!!!!

The record labels are in AWESOME condition (see pictures) with NO wear, NO writing, and barely ANY spindle marks AT ALL!!!!  IT IS VERY CLEAR THAT THIS RECORD HAS BARELY BEEN PLAYED AT ALL!!!!  The vinyl is in SUPERB condition!!!!  Most of these 60s/70s LPs had been to a lot of wild parties and are usually found totally worn out, and almost unplayable. This one is NOT and has NO scratches, only 1 absolutely ULTRA light hairline trace (only visible under EXTREME light!), only 1 ULTRA light scuffline trace (again, only visible under the most EXTREME light possible!), and only a VERY few of the VERY lightest paper scuffs only visible under EXTREME light!!!!  ITS AS SIMPLE AS THAT!!!!  THE RECORD STILL RETAINS ITS ORIGINAL 'JUST PRESSED' LOOK AND SHINES LIKE NEW!!!!  It is also great to find that the record plays as STUNNINGLY as the visual with NO pops, NO sticking, NO jumps, barely ANY crackle AT ALL (apart from a MEGA faint touch on 1 set of run on grooves ONLY!), and only some EXTREMELY low level background sound on the run on grooves & gaps - NOT in the music AT ALL!!!!   The sound quality is simply SUPERB with NO distortion and NO groovewear either!!!!  The record must MEGA STRICTLY grade Very Good++++ if not better and is very VERY close to a grade above!!!!  SUPERB RECORD!!!!  Believe me this record is NOT overgraded in ANY way!!!!  I use STRICT RC grading standards - it is not in my interest not to!!!! Brillant!!!! The record also comes in its ORIGINAL 1st Press Vertigo Inner Sleeve which is in BRILLIANT condition and UNSPLIT!!!!  The 1st Press Gatefold 'Die-Cut' Cover is in STUNNING condition!!!!  The cover has NO edgewear, NO spinal wear, only a VERY few light creases (cover is VERY flat looking indeed!), only VERY slight corner wear (NOT through the colour), NO rips, NO tears, barely ANY rubbing AT ALL to the cover front (virtually NONE!), only the VERY faintest hint of ringwear to the cover back, and NO writing!!!!  The 'Die-Cuts' are in PERFECT condition - with NO rips, NO tears, NO 'bits missing', NO fraying, and are PERFECTLY flat!!!!  The opening edge is beautifully straight with NO feathering!!!!  Even the unlaminated inside is in SUPERB condition with NO grubbyness, NO yellowing, NO ringwear, NO rubbing, and NO writing!!!!  There is also some very VERY minor and completely INVISIBLE evidence of 'touching in' in a very VERY few places (barely ANY!) - though this actually enhances the cover and certainly does NOT de-grade it in ANY respect!!!!  AND MAKE NO MISTAKE ABOUT IT - THIS IS AN ABSOLUTELY STUNNING COVER!!!!  The cover must grade Excellent(Minus) if not better and is virtually IMPOSSIBLE to find like this!!!!  THIS LP IS SERIOUSLY RARE AND SIMPLY IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND LIKE THIS - SO DONT MISS OUT ON THIS AMAZING OPPORTUNITY!!!!
