THE BLUE NILE A Walk Across The Rootops - EX+/VG+ 1983 First Press Linn LKH1 LP

	£		30
	$		40

This is a great copy of A Walk Across The Rooftops, the classic debut LP by The Blue Nile.

This is a first pressing - it does not have a barcode on the rear cover, or any Virgin logos anywhere on the labels.

Matrix numbers are LKH 1 A RED JIMMY V and LKH 1B RED JIMMY V.

NB - The catalogue on the labels in LKH001, but on the sleeve and the matrix numbers it is LKH1.

The vinyl is absolutely spotless and the sound is superb!

This was issued by: Linn

Cat no: LKH 001

Year of Release: 1983

Condition (please note that I use the Record Collector Grading System to rate the condition of records and covers – see below, but please contact me if you wish to clarify):

Record – EX+

Cover – VG+ ( I am grading this conservatively. Many sellers would grade this as EX but there are some very minor creases and a faint bit of ringwear, hence the lower grading)

Record Grading System

MINT The record itself is in brand new condition with no surface marks or deterioration in sound quality. The cover and any extra items such as lyric sheet, booklet or poster are in perfect condition. Records advertised, as Sealed or Unplayed will be mint.

EXCELLENT The record shows some signs of having been played, possibly with light surface marks but there will be very little lessening in sound quality. The cover and packaging might have slight wear and/or creasing.

VERY GOOD The record has obviously been played many times, but displays no major deterioration in sound quality, despite noticeable surface marks and the occasional light scratch. Normal wear and tear on the cover or extra items, without any major defects, is acceptable.

GOOD The record has been played so much that the sound quality has noticeably deteriorated, perhaps with some distortion and mild scratches. The cover and contents suffer from folding, scuffing of edges, spine splits, discoloration, etc.

FAIR The record is still just playable but has not been cared for properly and displays considerable surface noise; it may even jump. The cover and contents will be torn, stained and/or defaced.

POOR The record will not play properly due to scratches, bad surface noise etc. The cover and contents will be badly damaged or partly missing.

BAD The record is unplayable or might even be broken, and is only of use as a collection-filler.   

I will discount postage for bulk purchases – see below. All LPs are sent out in custom-made LP sized cardboard envelopes along with a cardboard stiffener.

I try to keep my postage prices as low as possible, but please take note that Ebay take a 10% cut of the postage you pay, so I only get 90% of the costs you pay - and this has to pay for good quality packaging too!
