Description
'Vol 4' Black Sabbath UK - 1972 - Vertigo 1st Issue
Matrix: Side A) 6360071 1Y//1 PORKY 1 21 2 1 Side B) 6360071 2Y//1 11 25 PECKO
Vinyl: M- I see no blemishes of concern whatsoever.
Vinyl Playback: NM Audio Playgrade: 9.8/10 Just incredible virtually perfect delivery. I heard 2 tics total. The near silent track 'FX' has light audible surface noise. It is not egregious. Both sides were played start to finish.
Labels: M-
Original Vertigo Inner: EX++ Other than age foxing, the inner is perfect, with no side splits or tears.
WWA Cover: VG+ The original '72 cover had come apart at the seams. This WWA 1973 replacement cover has some typical shelf wear top & bottom, w/ zero seam splits. It is structurally sound and presents very well. Corners are lightly feathered but not egregiously so. No corner bumps are seen. Neatly tidied up sticker residue remains at the top front & rear spine corners.
Inner Band Photo Pages: M- Still firmly in place with no tears or creases.
I am both a collector and an audiophile. If you are seeking an original 1972 UK Vertigo pressing that plays with virtually perfect audio... this is a quite solid, serious candidate.
INV: 225
Additional photos are available upon request. Returns are accepted up to 10 days after delivery. Thank you for looking!
Grading endeavors to be conservative. (Please see below for grading scale)
All open vinyl is shipped in a new poly-inner, and the album cover in a poly-sleeve.
Vinyl is cleaned on a VPI 16.5 machine and test played 'start-to-finish' prior to listing, unless otherwise noted.
'Vinyl Playback' will always address egregious audible concerns. If you encounter any issues with your purchase, please contact me prior to leaving negative or neutral feedback.
My goal is your 100% complete satisfaction.
