SIDE ONE(1) DETAILS

VINYL - THIS PLAYS VERY WELL WITH JUST SOME VERY VERY MINOR SURFACE NOISE, THIS IS NON PLAY EFFECTING, PLAYING SURFACE DOES HOLD SURFACE HAIRLINES/MARKS (but no scuffs or any you can feel with you fingers - meaning they are not very deep. probably only caused by a needle and age of record), OTHER THAN THIS I WILL SAY THIS IS AN AMAZING PLAYING SURFACE. I WILL GRADE AT EXCELLENT + (this is only because of the minor surface noise )

VINYL - AGAIN THE SAME STORY AS SIDE ONE PLAYING SURFACE LOOKS VERY NICE BUT DOES PLAYING SURFACE DOES HOLD SURFACE HAIRLINES/MARKS (but no scuffs or any you can feel with you fingers - meaning they are not very deep. probably only caused by a needle and age of record), DOES ALSO PLAY WITH MINOR SURFACE NOISE CAUSED BY THESE HAIRLINES. but THIS DOESNT TAKE AWAY FROM THE PURE QUALITY OF THE ITEM

LABEL - NM NO WRITING OR MARKS OR OR STICKERS. VERY CLEAN(this is the side with the track listings)

MATRIX 886775 2*Y*1 420   11   12 (b side first press matrix)

THE VINYL - EX + BOTH HAVE SURFACE NOISE THAT TO ME IS NON PLAY EFFECTING.

SLEEVE DETAILS: SOME MINOR CORNER WEAR DUE TO AGE. THERE ARE NO RIPS OR TEARS.CERTAINLY NO WRITINGS,AND DEFINATLEY NO STICKER MARKS. SPINE TEXT IS VERY READABLE. THE SPINE ISNT CRACKED.there is also some staining to back of sleeve where VO1 is found on  TOP RIGHT CORNER. INSIDE THE GATEFOLD SLEEVE DOES ALSO HAVE SOME AGE WEAR.GRADING IN AGAIN AT EXCELLENT +

SUMMARY: AN AMAZING PIECE OF PROGRESSIVE PYSCH ROCK HISTORY IN EXCELLENT + CONDITION.(BEING 42 YEARS OLD) A FIRST PRESSING.A VERY HARD TO FIND ITEM  AS MOST WOULD OF BEEN TRASHED AT PARTYS, IDEAL FOR A RECORD COLLECTOR OR MAYBE AND IDEA FOR A ROCK FAN FOR A CHRISTMAS PRESENT.

EVEN THROUGH THIS HAS BEEN PLAYED PRIOR TO LISTING PLEASE NOTE YOU SHOULD ALWAYS CLEAN A VINYL WITH A LINT FREE CLOTH BEFORE PLAYING TO CLEAN THE GROOVES FROM DUST AS THIS CAN CAUSE STATIC BUILD UPS, WHICH CAN DAMAGE THE PLAYING SURFACE.
