CONDITION - LP in EXCELLENT TO VERY CLOSE TO NEAR MINT  Condition - both Visually and Audibly 

on the Title track there are 2 very light pops for 1 revolution midway and very faint crackles for about 3 Revolutions towards the end of the track 

LABELS - EXCELLENT TO NEAR MINT- 

FRONT SLEEVE - EXCELLENT - Just evidence of a tiny  amount of wear on top edge sleeve ( about 18mm)  See Photo 3   

REAR SLEEVE- VERY GOOD for reasons below

See photos 3 and 4  You can see there is a small newspaper clipping review of Shades of Blue affixed to the sleeve  and a comment added in biro . 

This LP came from a reviewer who was curiously not that impressed - which accounts for its lovely condition - He hardly played the album at all 

following his initial impression . So it has been kept for some 45 years in unplayed condition -

He did however write  his name and address in the upper right corner and then went over theses details in heavier pen  to conceal his identity.

So I estimate  Very Good Condition for the rear sleeve.

Complete with Original “EMITEX” inner Sleeve -   in Excellent Condition

 

NEEDLESS TO SAY THIS LP DOES  NOT APPEAR VERY OFTEN AND ONE IN THIS CONDITION  MAKES THIS A BIT SPECIAL !


HAPPY NEW YEAR
