THE  VINYL IS IN FANTASTIC CONDITION. IT HAS RETAINED ALL OF IT'S ORIGINAL SHEEN, THERE ARE A FEW  MINOR MARKS HERE AND THERE, NO DEEP SCRATCHES ETC

PLAYING THE RECORD
THE LP PLAYS JUST SUPERBLY ALL THE WAY THROUGH BOTH SIDES, THERE ARE CRACKLES HERE AND THERE ESPECIALLY IN QUIETER PARTS, I PLAYED IT FULL BLAST AND IT STILL SOUNDS FANTASTIC.  


THE SLEEVE
CARDED UNLAMINATED ORIGINAL ISSUE SLEEVE. THE FRONT SURFACE IS FLAT AND CLEAN. THE ORIGINAL SLEEVE HISTORICALLY SUFFERS FROM VERY BAD RUBBING DUE TO DIFFERENT
TYPE OF CARD USED, THIS SLEEVE DOES SHOW SOME VERY SLIGHT SIGN OF WEAR BUT STILL VERY GOOD.
