All my records are cleaned on my Project Vacuum Record Cleaning Machine to assure the very best playback.

I have tried to illustrate the condition of this record with the photo's the condition is far from N/M, the damage is illustrated. The discs themselves have been housed in paper polylined since bought, for the most part they play with minimal surface noise. Disc 2 track 2 Until The End Of The World has rather noticeable sticky smudge that I tried to remove, it does play without jumping but has noticeable surface noise on this track.

I would rate the packaging, inner sleeves VG + some wear and slight damage, the outer sleeve is really G due to it's damage, the first disc is Ex, second disc, side C VG because of track 2
Side D EX, please note the condition if you are looking for an excellent copy of this you need look elsewhere.  I've tried to improve the discs as much by vacuum cleaning but Side C needs to be taken into consideration.  Please message me if you require anymore info.
