 Artist: DEEP PURPLE

Title: THE BOOK OF TALIESYN LP

Year: 1969

Label/code: HARVEST/EMI 1C 062-04 000

Grading-Vinyl: EX+,

Visually the vinyl is superb, no heavy marks or scratches, still glossy and very clean, no hesitation in saying that some would grade visually at Mint, we grade under strong light and have noticed a couple of very light marks, minimal , one more obvious on Track 1 B-Side.

 Played through fully from Start to finish, Lovely Clear Bold Audio with NO Jumps, Skips or Major Audio Damage, overall we feel EX+ is right , A little bit of backgroung noise here and there , critically garded at EX+ and buyer to note Audio at this level, its far far from a poor copy.

Harvest Yellow/Lime green Centres are free from any Rips or Writing/Pen Marks, Spindle wear at a minimum no damage to centre hole and as per pictures colour still bright.

Grading-Sleeve/Inserts: EX+,

Very nice condition, NO rips, splits or repairs , corner wear very light, No writing or Pen Marks on sleeve, All spines great with Title spine being paticulary bold and artist - release text bold, undamaged and fully read-able.

Couple of light/small creasing near spine edges and a couple of marks-sleeve is fully Laminated and therefore very easy to clean further if so wish. 

Inside gatefold as per picture 3 has NO writing, rips or splits, one very small piece of corner wear - inside gatefold is certanly EX+ to Near Mint.
