Description
I bought this album new soon after its release in 1976. The cover is in very good condition with some mild 'bruising' following the line of the vinyl beneath and which can be seen towards the top of the first photo. I'm not sure whether such bruising can be cleaned but I chose not to risk it. The 20 page booklet is in near mint condition. The photos are a true reflection of the condition of both cover and booklet.
I fully inspected and listened to the album start to finish a few days ago and its audio quality is consistent with the comments under "My Vinyl Album Collection" below. The vinyl was unmarked and I heard and no repeating scratches or jumps.
Happy to answer questions.
My Vinyl Album Collection
The vast majority of my vinyl albums were bought new in the 1970s and 1980s, were very well looked after and have no significant scratches or jumps. Unfortunately I don't always have time to listen to every one to verify its current condition. When I do listen I hear occasional audible crackle/static but my turntable, cartridge & stylus are all very old so these could well be responsible. For this reason I am being cautious when I say "good condition" or "very good condition" (rather than "excellent" or "near mint"). If you also hear crackle/static then I'd expect it to be possible to resolve it by giving the vinyl a thorough clean. On the rare occasions I find what sounds like a significant scratch or jump I inspect the vinyl meticulously and, more often than not, I have found a stubborn piece of dust or grit and have cleaned it out such that it is no longer visible or audible. Unless otherwise stated, the vinyl has no visible scratches. I have had only positive feedback on the quality of the vinyl I have sold (and on the covers that go with them) so I don't think you'll be disappointed.
I will pack all albums with vinyl separated from outer sleeves and in a rigid cardboard box with additional padding to ensure safe transit.
