ABOUT TIME WE HAD SOME BLACK SABBATH, WHO WERE FORMED IN BIRMINGHAM ENGLAND IN 1968, AND THIS THEIR 2nd ALBUM,  RELEASED ON 2nd SEPTEMBER 1970, IT IS ANOTHER SABBATH MASTERPIECE, PLAYS , AND ALL WILL BE EXPLAINED BELOW, AND COMES ROM MY PERSONAL VINYL COLLECTION !!!!

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 1970 UK 1ST PRESS  ::  1Y//1 V 420  1 2 5  ::  2Y//1 V 420  1 1 1 . 
ON THE LARGE VERTIGO SWIRL LABEL :: 6360 011  .

COVER :: ORIGINAL UK 1ST PRESS NON LAMINATED, WITH, 'MANAGEMENT/JIM SIMPSON, BIG BEAR, BIRMINGHAM' CREDIT INSIDE THE GATEDOLD. LOVELY SOLID SPINE AND EDGES JUST A FEW TINY SPOTS OF VERY LIGHT RUB, NOTHING SERIOUS !!!! THE OPENING EDGE IS STILL SHARP, AND INSIDE THE GATEFOLD, JUST A TINY MARK IN THE MIDDLE ON THE TOP EDGE ON BOTH SIDES. THERE ARE A FEW TINY SURFACE CREASE LINES AROUND THE EDGES, AND A SMALL RUB ON THE CORNERS, AND WITH NOTHING ELSE, I WOULD GRADE  :: VG+/EX- .   

VINYL :: PLAYS WITH NO SKIPS, JUMPS OR STICKS, AND NO POPS, CLICKS, NASTY STATIC OR CRACKLE, BUT THERE ARE QUITE A FEW LIGHT AND FAINT TICKS WHICH I WILL EXPLAIN BELOW >>>>>>

SIDE 1 :: TRACK 1 :: HAS A FAINT TICK AFTER THE START, THREE FAINT TICKS A BIT FURTHER ON, THREE FAINT TICKS A BIT FURTHER ON, TWO FAINT TICKS A BIT FURTHER ON, AND A FAINT TICK IN THE MIDDLE .

TRACK 2 :: HAS TWO FAINT TICKS AFTER THE START AND A FAINT TICK IN THE MIDDLE .

TRACK 3 :: A VERY QUIET TRACK, WITH SOME FAINT TICKS . NOTHING NASTY !!!!

TRACK 4 :: PLAYS FINE WITH NOTHING TO MENTION .

SIDE 2 :: TRACK 1 :: HAS A FAINT TICK AFTER THE START, THREE FAINT TICKS IN THE MIDDDLE AND THREE FAINT TICKS AT THE END . .

TRACK 2 :: HAS SOME FAINT AND LIGHT TICKS ON THE QUIET INTRO, AND A BIT INTO THE TRACK, AND A FEW LIGHT TICKS AT THE END .

TRACK 3 :: HAS SOME FAINT AFTER THE START, THREE LIGHT TICKS IN THE MIDDLE, AND A LIGHT TICK FURTHER ON, AND A FEW FAINT TICKS AT THE END.

TRACK 4 :: PLAYS FINE WITH NOTHING TO MENTION, JUST A LIGHT TICK IN THE MIDDLE .

SO, "IRON MAN", AND "FAIRIES WEAR BOOTS" PLAY VERY WELL AS YOU CAN SEE ABOVE, BOTH ARE TRACK 4 !!!! AS YOU CAN UNDERSTAND I MIGHT HAVE MISSED ONE OR TWO TICKS, BUT I HAVE BEEN AS HONEST AS I POSSIBLE CAN, AND THE DESCRIPTION, IS THE CLOSEST YOU WILL GET WITHOUT LISTENING TO IT.

PLEASE REMEMBER THIS WILL NOT BE TURNED INTO A MINTY VINYL BY THE VINYL FAIRIES IN THE POST, (EVEN IF THEY ARE WEARING BOOTS !) THANK YOU !!!! 

VISUALLY AWAY FROM BRIGHT LIGHT THE VINYL LOOK NICE, HOWEVER UNDER BRIGHT LIGHT THERE QUITE A LOT OF COSMETICS, AND TWO TINY EVER SO SLIGHTLY FEELABLE SCUFFS WHICH I WILL EXPLAIN BELOW.

APART FROM HAVING SOME COSMETIC SLEEVE REMOVAL SPIDER WEB ULTRA FINE LINES, THERE ARE ALSO SOME COSMETIC BRUSH STROKE LOOKING SLEEVE REMOVAL COSMETICS, SOME SMALL COSMETIC HAIRLINE, AND A FEW TINY COSMETIC MARKS, AND A SMALL EVER SO SLIGHTLY FEELABLE SCUFF MARK ON TRACK 1, AND ANOTHER ON TRACK 2 ON SIDE 2, SO QUITE A LOT GOING COSMETICALLY !!!!

NOW FOR THAT AUDIO GRADE, AND AS YOU CAN IMAGINE, BIT OF A TOUGH ONE, SO I AM JUST GOING TO PLAY IT SAFE, AND SAY IT PLAYS AS DESCRIBED, AND I WOULD GRADE THE AUDIO :: VG . 

LABELS   :: NO ISSUES, JUST SOME FAINT SPINDLE LINES SEEN ONLY UNDER BRIGHT LIGHT :: EX .

ORIGINAL POLYLINED SWIRL INNER :: NO WRITING, OR SPLITS, JUST SOME AGEING AND A BIT OF CORNER CREASING :: VG/VG+ .

AS THIS IS A RARE UK 1ST PRESS, BIG SWIRL, AND BIG BEAR CREDITS, I HAVE DECIDED TO LIST IT. NOW HONESTLY ALTHOUGH IT PLAYS AS DESCRIBED, THERE IS NOTHING INTRUSIVE, SO NO LOUD TICKS THAT WOULD SPOIL THE AUDIO, AND IRON MAN, AND FAIRIES WEAR BOOTS, PLAY FANTASTIC !!!! REALLY NOT FOR THE PERFECTIONIST, AS MENTIONED, AS AWAY FROM BRIGHT LIGHT NOT THE BEST LOOKING VINYL BUT REALLY IT IS JUST MORE OF A VISUAL AFFECT, SO IF YOU ARE HAPPY WITH WHAT YOU HAVE SEEN AND READ, THEN YOU WILL BE HAPPY WHEN IT ARRIVES !!!! 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 !!!!
