Description
- DESCRIPTION: Black Sabbath- Classic 1st Self titled LP. Complete and original early UK pressing with big swirl labels, matt gate-fold sleeve, correct swirl inner dated 0970 and 1Y//1 420 13 / 2Y//1 420 12 17 matrix. Postage cost includes insurance, tracking and a box/cruciform mailer. Packed this weighs over 500gm so overseas postage is as for a double. I only use Royal Mail. LABEL AND CATALOGUE NUMBER: Vertigo VO 6 847 903 VTY: YEAR OF RELEASE: 1970. COUNTRY OF RELEASE: UK: CONDITION (VINYL/COVER):G+/VG. Vinyl is clean with a fair few hairlines/brushing lines and a few thin surface lines. Played all of this a couple of times in last few weeks on my budget deck. Sits perfectly flat on the turntable. Music is loud and prominent and plays through easily without jumps or sticks. "Black Sabbath " displays some ticks/clicks in the first minute or so. "The Wizard", Behind The Wall Of Sleep" and "N.I.B" all play pretty clean and loud , "Evil Woman" has a few random ticks but the music is still really loud and prominent. The quiet intro to "Sleeping Village" has a trace of background sound but once the music builds the rest plays through very nicely, clear and loud. "Warning" again has ticks in the quietest passages but plays through fine. Matt cover retains great shape, is firm and square and has only light to moderate edge wear, moderate corner wear and minimal creasing. Good shape retained to fully legible spine. Very clean inside of gate fold- no faults at all. No ringwear at all- check out the photos. It has 2 areas of print tear to rear of sleeve hence low grade- please see the picture- it looks like it may have been affixed to a wall at some point in time. Original swirl inner is in acceptable condition with a couple of tears around centre hole, splits to all edges and the poly has become detached. Clean labels- just check out the photos. No writing, rips, stickers or sticker tears. 100% original and complete early UK press.. PLEASE CHECK OUT MY OTHER SABBATH/CLASSIC/HARD ROCK/KRAUT/PSYCH/METAL LISTINGS IN MY EBAY SHOP. Grading system: I use UK’s “Record Collector” Grading system. I DO PLAY EVERY RECORD I LIST NOW even though its often just quite briefly. Please bear in mind you may get a touch of background sound, even if its just on intros and between the tracks on 30-40 year old vinyl records!! :: MINT: The record itself is in brand new condition with no surface mark or deterioration in the sound quality. The cover and any extra items such as the lyric sheet, booklet or poster are in perfect condition. EXCELLENT: The record shows some signs of having been played, but there is very little lessening in the sound quality. The cover and packaging might have slight wear and/or creasing. VERY GOOD: The record has obviously been played many times, but displays no major deterioration in sound quality, despite noticeable surface marks and the occasional light scratch. Normal wear and tear on the cover, or extra items, without any major defects, is acceptable. GOOD: The record has been played so much that the sound has noticably deteriorated, perhaps with some distortion and mild scratches. The cover and contents suffer from folding,scuffing of edges, spine splits, discoloration etc. I will at times use a + or - to indicate when a record falls between the grades. I REMOVE ALL VINYL FROM SLEEVES PRIOR TO POSTING. RECORDS ARE SENT IN BEST QUALITY MAILERS WITH 2 STIFFENERS. I ALWAYS COMBINE POSTAGE BUT COST DEPENDS ENTIRELY ON WEIGHT OF PACKAGE. EACH EXTRA SINGLE DISC LP IS ROUGHLY £1.75 TO EUROPE, £2.75 TO THE AMERICAS AND £3.25 TO THE REST OF THE WORLD. ALL ITEMS (OR COMBINATIONOF ITEMS) SELLING FOR OVER £20 MUST BE SENT SIGNED FOR OR AIRSURE TO COMPLY WITH PAYPAL POLICIES- ASK ME FOR FURTHER DETAILS.
