Description : Here's your chance to win this massively rare and very sought after Lp, especially in this condition !!!

It's an original UK 1st pressing on the highly regarded Verigo label. Considered as one of Mike Patto's finest releases, it features the legendary Olly Halsall on lead guitar. Produced by Muff Winwood.

The very fragile unlaminated gimmick cover grades as EX- due to the following : Previous owner has written a number with a purple felt pen at bottom of front, a small stain near the vertigo logo and a beirut record store sticker at upper left side. I haven't tried to remove it, i prefer to keep it as it is.

Also some minor negligeable shelf-wear from age and nearly 40 years of storage, a bit of discoloration on the inside and a few small scuffs at back (See pics).

The flaps are intact ; no tears or seam splits and the spine is perfectly legible.

The vinyl looks as new with its beautiful lustre, there are 2 or 3 hardly visible very thin hairlines from the inner sleeve, not needle marks. The record is flat, no warping at all. A few barely visible spindle marks reveal that the record has been played a few times only.

One of the labels has some writing. The original swirl sleeve is intact, just a bit of discoloration at opening and bottom. No tears, writings, or seam splits.
