Extremely clean vinyl with plenty of gloss; Side 1 is VG+ with a few light marks that are inaudible. Side 2 is VG++ with very few, very light scuffs. Plays sensationally clean, bright VG++ to NM throughout. Deep Groove, silver on blue ALADDIN labels are bright and clean with faint spindle trails at center hole. "J&L" initials written small at label rim.

COVER is strong VG+
Laminated front is super clean with faint shelf rub; tiny "J&L", very faint in u.l. corner. Bright clean back has light H2O stain at edge. Sharp corners and straight edges all around. No creases; touch of wear to seams at corner tips only. No splits.
