CHICKEN SHACK - Accept - UK EX Blue Horizon LP A1/B1

The time has come to bite the bullet and sell more of my vinyl collection - some classical, some jazz, some pop, rock, folk & psych. I know it won't be appreciated by my daughter or the next generation, so I'm shifting it myself and hope I find good homes for it. The hard work is deciding what to let go first, but it will probably be duplicates, stuff I have on CD and items unplayed for ages and I'll pick at random from these so there should be a decent mix. You never know, there might just be something to suit your taste.
 
This listing is for a nice original copy of Chicken Shack's fourth album - Accept - on the great Mike Vernon's Blue Horizon label.

Chicken Shack -
Accept
UK Blue Horizon
1970
Cat Number: S 7-63861 dead wax A1 / B1.
Mode: Stereo
Producer: Mike Vernon

The Album:
Stan the man & co serving up another helping. Good stuff from the ever classy Blue Horizon stable 

Condition:
Cover:  Gatefold sleeve, unlaminated, clean. Light signs of edge and ring wear and the odd knock but nothing serious. Spine is strong and clearly legible. No writing or stickers. However it has a factory fault in that the print process misaligned for one of the runs so the colours are not precisely in alignment resulting in a ghosted outer cover image. That's the sort of thing that would add lots of value to a Beatles or Led Zep cover, but not to this one. Just be aware that it's a bit fuzzy - it's a fairly gloomy picture anyway!
Labels: Blue Horizon matt labels, bright and clean. The odd light white patch and rub - not through over use but again I think these are minor printing misses - all clearly visible on pictures. Just a  few spindle marks. No writing or stickers. Vinyl: Very nice glossy vinyl, retaining its original lustre and bearing just the odd customary paper scuff. Plays excellent with just the odd hint of static crackle in quiet patches / between tracks. I have never attempted to clean this album, so there's every chance that a good clean will improve playback even more by removing any dust and static..

Overall:
A good solid cover but with printing flaw housing an excellent copy of this album - I'd guess that this might be professionally graded at (cover / vinyl) VG+ / EX.

Terms:
Please note that I try to test-play at least part of each record before listing, but do not have time to play fully in all cases. I played a lot of this one, but if you do discover a problem which I might have missed, please do not hesitate to contact me and I will do all I can to rectify the situation.
