VERY GOOD PLUS--RECORDS and VERY GOOD MINUS—JACKET.
RECORD: VERY GOOD PLUS
No skips, light surface crackle in quiet portions or end of songs. Clear recording, hear music parts and vocals well. The record is in VG+ condition. I play graded the record and it plays very well. The record definitely has superior sound compared to the CD which sounds flat. Each musician is clearer which is necessary on music this complex. The record also has all of its original gloss too. Overall this is a clean, very good plus copy.
LP COVER: VERY GOOD MINUS
Jacket has worn corners front top right and bottom left. See the photos for more detail. The jacket also has split seams: 4.5 inch top right front right and a 1.0 inch one inside the gatefold. Ringwear on the front and back. Gatefold is nice looking. The jacket is definitely sturdy enough to store the albums. In new sleeves, no original sleeves.
