BLACK  SABBATH MASTER OF REALITY
  WELL I THOUGHT IT WAS ABOUT TIME WE HAD SOME MORE BLACK SABBATH, WHO WERE FORMED IN BIRMINGHAM ENGLAND IN 1968, AND THIS, THEIR 3rd ALBUM, RELEASED IN AUGUST 1971 !!!! THIS PLAYS SUPERB, AND ALL WILL BE EXPLAINED BELOW, AND IT COMES FROM MY TREASURED PERSONAL VINYL COLLECTION !!!!
THERE IS A COSMETIC RASH MARK ON THE VINYL, BUT NOTHING TO WORRY ABOUT AS ALL WILL BE EXPLAINED BELOW, THANK YOU !!!! 
DISCLAIMER :: ALL MY LP'S LISTED ON THIS SITE ARE ORIGINAL AND NOT FAKE OR COUNTERFEIT, AND ARE SOLD IN GOOD FAITH. THEY WERE BOUGHT ON THE DATE OF ISSUE. THANK YOU !!

THIS IS AN ORIGINAL 1971 UK 1ST PRESS  ::  6360 050  1Y//1  V 420  12 7   4   ::  6360 050  2Y//1   12 29   4 .
VERY EARLY PRESS AS IT HAS ONLY THE NUMBER, 4 AND NOT 04, AS YOU CAN SEE ABOVE !!!! 
ON THE VERTIGO SWIRL LABEL :: 6360 050 .

COVER :: ORIGINAL 1ST PRESS BOX COVER WITH EMBOSSED BAND NAME AND TITLE ON THE FRONT, PRINTED AND MADE HOWARDS PRINTERS (SLOUGH) LTD, AND AS IT HAS ALWAYS HAD A CARDBOARD INSERT IT HAS NOT BEEN CRUSHED SO THE SIDES ARE ALL SQUARE AND IN GREAT CONDITION, JUST A SMALL RUB ON THE CORNERS. LOVELY LAMINATE, JUST SOME SMALL LAMINATE CREASE LINES AROUND THE EDGES. THERE ARE NO SPLITS OR TEARS, AND THE OPENING EDGE IS ALSO IN GREAT CONDITION. THIS ONLY OPENS FROM THE TOP EDGE, AS THE BOTTOM EDGE HAS BEEN GLUED SHUT, SO WITH NOTHING ELSE I WOULD GRADE   ::  EX/EX- . 

VINYL :: THE GREAT NEWS IS THAT IT PLAYS WITH CRYSTAL CLEAR CLARITY, WITH NO STATIC OR CRACKLE ANYWHERE, ALSO NO SKIPS, STICKS, JUMPS, POPS, OR CLICKS !!!!!

ALL I HEARD WAS, SUPERB AUDIO FROM START  TO FINISH, JUST ONE SINGLE VERY FAINT HARD TO HEAR TICK IN THE MIDDLE OF TRACK 2, ON SIDE 2, AND THAT'S ALL, SO YOU WILL HAVE TO WAIT A VERY LONG TIME, IF EVER FOR A BETTER ONE TO TURN UP !!!!

VISUALLY WHEN ANGLED A CERTAIN WAY UNDER BRIGHT LIGHT THE VINYL LOOKS SUPERB, BUT THERE ARE SOME LIGHT COSMETIC RASH MARKS FROM THE POLYLINER ON BOTH SIDES. NOW THIS HAS ONLY A VISUAL EFFECT, AND IN NO WAY AN AUDIO EFFECT, AND AS IT IS AN EARLY PRESSING, IT SOUNDS FANTASTIC, SO PLEASE DO NOT BE PUT OFF BY THESE COSMETIC RASH MARKS. ( I HAVE TRIED TO SHOW THEM IN THE PHOTOS, AND AS YOU CAN SEE THEY ARE ONLY COSMETIC). HONESTLY YOU WOULD NEVER KNOW THEY WERE THERE UNLESS YOU LOOKED AT THE VINYL, AND IT REALLY DOES PLAY OUTSTANDING, AND AS DESCRIBED ABOVE !!!! SO WITH NOTHING ON THE AUDIO, APART FROM JUST ONE SINGLE VERY FAINT TICK, I WOULD GRADE AN OUTSTANDING  :: EX+/NEAR MINT . BUT SO MUCH NEARER TO NEAR MINT, AND IN NO WAY OVER GREDED !!!!

LABELS   :: AGAIN NO ISSUES SUPERB, JUST A COUPLE OF FAINT SPINDLE LINES SEEN ONLY UNDER BRIGHT LIGHT :: EX .

ORIGINAL SWIRL INNER :: NO WRITING, OR SPLITS, BUT THERE IS A BIT OF LIGHT AGEING AROUND THE EDGES, AND OF COURSE THE VINYL WILL COME IN A NEW BLACK POLYLINER, ALONG WITH THE ORIGINAL SWIRL INNER DESCRIBED ABOVE :: VG+/EX- .

YOU CAN NOT BEAT A BIT OF BLACK SABBATH TO LIVEN UP YOUR EVENING. AS MENTIONED THRE ARE SOME COSMETIC TOTALLY HARMLESS RASH MARKS ON BOTH SIDES, OFF THE POLYLINER, BUT IT STILL PLAYS WITH OUTSTANDING AUDIO, AND WILL BE NEAR IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND THIS ORIGINAL UK 1ST PRESS WITH BETTER AUDIO, THAN THIS ONE HAS !!!! THANK YOU AS ALWAYS FOR YOUR TIME !!!! ROSE.

IF SLEEVE REMOVAL AND HAIRLINES ARE MENTIONED, THEN THEY ARE TOTALLY COSMETIC AND HARMLESS, AND THESE ARE NOT SCRATCHES, AS YOU WILL KNOW SCRATCHES ARE FEELABLE AND CAUSE AUDIO PROBLEMS, SO IF THERE WERE ANY SCRATCHES, I WOULD MENTION THEM, THANK YOU ! 

TAKE CARE AND BE SAFE !!!!
