Fairport Convention - Self Named 12" Vinyl LP - Polydor 583 035, 583035 - 1st Press - Stereo - UK 1968
Bit tricky this one. I am not too sure how to grade it.
The fully laminated cover has some ring marking, slight cracking and some small scratches on the back. VG/VG+
The vinyl has crackle in places, noticable in some quiet passages and between some tracks. This would be VG but for the fly in the ointment being that there is a warp to the edge. The record has been put in a professional record press which has reduced the warp but it still has some ( 1.5mm) and the press has left some light marking.
I have played the album on three different record players and although the arm goes up and down at the start it has tracked fine and not jumped. Having said that it may well jump if you are using a very light tracking weight.
See the photos.
Discogs give this pressing in similar condition, but without the warp as between £76 and £250
I have tried to price this reasonably accounting for the warp.
