  BLACK SABBATH        VOL 4      

THIS IS AN ORIGINAL UK 1ST PRESS WITH NO, 'MADE IN ENGLAND ON THE LABEL'. THE 2nd PRESS HAD MADE IN ENGLAND ON THE LABEL !!!!!
IMPORTANT...BEFORE YOU READ ON, I WOULD LIKE TO POINT OUT, ALTHOUGH THE AUDIO PLAYS VERY WELL WITH NO SERIOUS ISSUES THE VISUAL SIDE ON THE VINYL IS NOT THE BEST, AS THERE ARE SOME SLEEVE REMOVAL MARKS, SOME VARIOUS HAIRLINES A FEW SMALL SCUFFS, AND A LONG THIN SCUFF ACROSS SIDE 1. THESE OF COURSE ARE ALL COSMETIC, SO NOTHING NASTY, SO IF YOU ARE OKAY WITH QUITE A FEW COSMETICS, AND READ ON, AND ARE HAPPY WITH THE AUDIO GRADE, THEN YOU WILL GET A VERY NICE VERTIGO SWIRL 1ST PRESS ORIGINAL SABBATH MONSTER ALBUM THAT PLAYS VERY WELL,THANK YOU !!
ABOUT TIME WE HAD SOME BLACK SABBATH, WHO WERE FORMED IN BIRMINGHAM ENGLAND IN 1968, AND THIS THEIR 4th ALBUM,  RELEASED IN 1972, IT IS ANOTHER SABBATH MASTERPIECE, PLAYS REALLY WELL, 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 1972 UK 1ST PRESS  ::  6360 071 1Y//1  11 2  ::  2Y//1  11 9 . 
ON THE 1ST PRESS VERTIGO SWIRL LABEL :: 6360 071  .
WITH NO 'MADE IN ENGLAND' ON THE LABEL !!!!
COVER :: ORIGINAL 1ST PRESS GATEFOLD, WITH ORIGINAL ATACHED BOOKLET INSIDE THE GATEFOLD IN FANTASTIC CONDITION. THE SPINE AND EDGES ARE ALL SOLID, WITH SOME LIGHT RUB ON THE SPINE, BUT STILL READABLE, AND A SMALL RUB ON THE CORNERS !!!! THE OPENING EDGE IS STILL SHARP AND THERE IS A BIT OF FAINT RING WEAR ALONG THE TOP AND BOTTOM ON THE BACK, AND SOME TINY CREASE LINES AROUND THE EDGES. THERE IS NOTHING ELSE, AND I WOULD GRADE  :: VG+/EX- .    

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

SIDE 1 :: TRACK 1 :: HAS TWO FAINT TICKS TOWARDS THE END, AND A FAINT TICK AT THE END .

TRACK 2 :: PLAYS FINE JUST A FAINT TICK AT THE END .

TRACK 3 :: HAS TWO FAINT TICKS AT THE START, ANOTHER FAINT TICK A BIT FURTHER ON, A FAINT TICK IN THE MIDDLE, AND A FAINT TICK AT THE END .

TRACK 4 :: HAS A TINY BIT OF VERY FAINT STATIC, AND FIVE FAINT TICKS AT THE START ON THE VERY QUIET INTRO .

SIDE 1 :: TRACK 1 :: HAS A FAINT TICK IN THE MIDDLE .

TRACK 2 :: PLAYS FINE WITH NOTHING TO MENTION .

TRACK 3 :: PLAYS FINE WITH NOTHING TO MENTION .

TRACK 4 :: PLAYS FINE, JUST A FAINT TICK AFTER THE START .

TRACK 5 :: PLAYS FINE, AND AGAIN, JUST A FAINT TICK AFTER THE START .

VISUALLY AWAY FROM BRIGHT LIGHT THE VINYL LOOKS OKAY, BUT UNDER BRIGHT LIGHT THERE ARE QUITE A LOT OF COSMETICS, AS MENTIONED AT THE START OF THE LISTING, SO QUITE A FEW HARMLESS COSMETIC SLEEVE REMOVAL SPIDER WEB THREAD ULTRA FINE LINES, SOME VARIOUS SIZED HARMLESSS COSMETIC HAIRLINES (NOTHING VERY LONG), A COUPLE OF SMALL COSMETIC THIN SCUFF MARKS, AND A LONG COSMETIC THIN SCUFF LINE ACROSS SIDE 1....BUT NOTHING FEELABLE...SO JUST A VISUAL AFFECT AND NOT AN AUDIO AFFECT, SO THE AUDIO PLAYS AS YOU HAVE SEEN WITH NO SERIOUS AUDIO ISSUES, AND IS VERY ENJOYABLE !!!!

SO FOR THAT ALL IMPORTANT AUDIO GRADE, AND AS THERE IS NOTHING INTRUSIVE OR OVER THE AUDIO, AND IT DOES PLAY AS DESCRIBED, THEN I WOULD GRADE THE AUDIO :: EX/EX- . TO BE ON THE SAFE SIDE OF THE AUDIO GRADE .

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

POLYLINED SWIRL INNER :: NOW NOT SURE WHAT HAPPENED TO THE ORIGINAL, BUT I WILL INCLUDE A REPRESS SWIRL INNER, WHICH IS IN NEAR MINT CONDITION. TO BE HONEST IF THE AUDIO WAS BAD, THEN I WOULD NOT HAVE INCLUDED A REPLACEMENT SWIRL INNER  :: EX+/NEAR MINT .

HAVE NOT PLAYED THIS FOR YEARS, AND IT WAS A REAL TREAT, AND I ENJOYED IT VERY MUCH. THERE ARE THOSE COUPLE OF FAINT TICKS AS MENTIONED, BUT STILL A FANTASTIC LISTEN, AND OF COURSE THE VISUAL SIDE OF THINGS WITH THOSE COSMETICS, BUT WHEN IT IS PLAYING YOU WOULD NEVER KNOW !!!! IF IT PLAYED TERRIBLE, I CERTAINLY WOULD NOT HAVE LISTED IT, AND IT WOULD NOW BE A VERY NICE FRUIT BOWL FULL OF APPLES AND BANANAS !!!! 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 !!!!
