THE GLOSSY VINYL IS VERY GOOD. IT DOES HAVE LIGHT SURFACE MARKS (MOST OF WHICH ARE VISIBLE ONLY A UNDER BRIGHT LIGHT)HOWEVER THESE IN NO WAY AFFECT AUDIO.... THERE IS NO DISTORTION WHATSOEVER AND THE SOUND QUALITY IS STILL AS GOOD AS THE DAY THIS ONE WAS PRESSED
THE LAMINATED SLEEVE IS AGAIN EXCELLENT. IT IS CLEAN AND TOTALLY INTACT WITH JUST MINIMAL SIGNS OF AGE AND WEAR I.E CREASING E.T.C. SPINE IN INTACT AND ALL WORDING IS READBALE. OVERALL IT IS EXCELLENT GIVEN AGE.
