*****
RCA LIVING STEREO - SB. 2068 - Produced by DECCA in England - Red/Silver Grooved Label
First Stereo Pressing of this recording
1D & 1D Stampers
*****
T.A.S. ("The Absolute Sound") listed - Harry Pearson's super list of LPs of great music with great sound.
Highly praised and sought after performances in this first pressing
The record shows some little signs of being played but has a good bright sheen. The single time I played it, it played with no repeated ticks, clicks or jumps but with some occasional background crackle/noise, probably due to dust or handling over time.
The picture gives a very good impression of the sleeve, in near-mint condition generally with some shelf-wear to the corners.
The disc and sleeve are visually graded NM/NM, 83/82 respectively (see below).
Satisfaction guaranteed - a full refund of the purchase price (excluding postage & packing costs) will be given for any item which does not comply with my description and grading and is returned to me within 14 days of receipt.

Record Condition Grading System
I apply a visual grading system as follows:
90% Mint, (90% is the highest figure I give as no records are perfect)
80-89% Near Mint, almost flawless, at 85% only the lightest scuff marks to the record, slight wear to the cover; above 85% and up to 89%, there should be no marks on the playing surface of the record. Below 85%, down to 80%, there will be progressively more marking, but this will only be very light and superficial.
70-79% Excellent, EX, a few more light surface marks than will be seen at 80-85%, light ring wear or creasing to cover, slight tears/laminate lift to the cover. Remains of price labels or sellotape may be evident to the cover.
60-69% Very Good, VG, more obvious marks to the record, more obvious creasing, ring wear or laminate lift, worse tears to the cover. There may be ticks from the record but see below*.
The information is provided for the record first, and then for the cover or box, for example you will find NM/NM in the notes on each record followed by, for example, 85/85. This means 85% both for the record and for the cover.
Records are viewed under both daylight and under a halogen light where practical to clearly shows any marks.
*This is a visual grading system. If I am aware of any audio problems affecting a record, such as ticks, I will provide this information in detail.
