A SIDE
Looks unplayed! Looks like new. Can't say any more than that. Unbelievable copy. Never seen one this clean. The audio is MINT. There is no background noise other than you get from ALL vinyl. Even 'Changes' plays very clean with barely any background crackle at all (and that's the cleanest version I've ever heard!). The only audio intereference comes at the end of the side with some crackle in the run out, but when the rest of the side plays so well, this noise on the run out is easily forgiveable!
This is the best copy you are ever likely to see or hear. Don't miss this incredible opportunity...
B SIDE
Vinyl is just as good and impressive as the A side. Stunning visually and the audio is stunning too. Mindblowingly good! "Laguna Sunrise' is the other 'difficult' track on this seminal album and this performs as suberbly as "Changes" on side 1...beautifully clean with superb tone and clarity from Tony Iommi's acoustic guitar. Wow!
OUTER SLEEVE
Sleeve is in MINT- condition - the best one I've ever seen. Most are trashed, some are EX, most have some wear, foxing, etc. This one is near perfect, the only issue I can see is a very faint ring impression at the bottom of the rear sleeve - but then the vinyl has sat inside the sleeve for 40 years! The bound in booklet is in perfect condition, the glueing in is strong and intact (some start to come away over time). The spine is perfectly legible and again is the best I've ever seen. Awesome.
LABELS
Labels are MINT with NO spindle traces visible, looks unplayed!
INNER SLEEVE
Original Vertigo swirl inner sleeve in EX condition, just one very slight rip on one side near centre.
