This is the very rare original cream vinyl release of Made In Heaven released in the UK in 1995.   Visually the vinyl is in wonderful condition and looks barely played.  I have sold a number of these and this has to be one of the best I have heard.  I play test all my vinyls and this one does not disappoint! 

'It's a Beautiful Day' begins with some light static but soon dissipates.  Thereafter the remainder of Side One plays with superb depth and clarity with almost no interference at all.  Of course the test of any vinyl is how well the quieter tracks play and 'Mother Love' here plays like new, a fantastic listen.  

Side Two unsurprisingly plays with the same quality.  There is almost zero interference and when you consider this LP is now 20 years old the audio is sublime.  There is perhaps the slightest hint of static during 'Too Much Love..' but it is only minor and does not affect the audio pleasure in any way.  With complete silence between tracks you will be hard pressed to find a better version than this.

The gatefold is in excellent condition with only minor wear.  The edges are very clean as is the wide spine - it just has slight shelf wear at the top and bottom.  The opening edge has a little handling wear but again is only minor and does detract from the overall quality in my opinion.  There is a hint of wear at the top of the gatefold on the reverse where the record has rubbed.  The front and back cover and inside of the gatefold are in superb condition with no marks whatsoever. 

The lyric inner is in superlative condition and is as new.  Also included are the obligatory three posters and the small Queen discography flyer.

The package also contains an LP sized advert featuring information on 'Made in Heaven' and other releases including the 20 CD limited edition box set.  It is in excellent condition with only a little creasing.
