Description

Gentle Giant - same UK Vertigo 6360020 1970 VG/VG+

This is the first record by Gentle Giant and oddly is not seem as much now same as very good record with some good sounds and very fine playing this is the First pressing with large Vertigo Logo Side two and with Vertigo shown at the bottom at the end of 1971/2 they changed to small logo with Vertigo at the top both have Spiral logos Side A unless dating from 1973 then on Space Ship.

Please note that this copy is not mint and at such does shown some playing and enjoyment please check my listing for playback and info as shown, Does have the Spiral Bag as shown the labels show some light spindle marks as you would see on a record that has been played but no damage or pen marks.

Cover
Well as shown the cover shows its still looking quite good but its also clear to see its been stored over the years as you will see the edges suffer from some rubbing spine corners etc, the back shows the most wear showing a little light loss of color along the edges clearly shown in my scan. The good news is no Stickers or Rips to the sleeve in inside of the gate-fold is clean there is no text on the spine on this record anyway over all looking strong VG. VG

Record/Vinyl

The Record is still glossy and clean it has been cared for over the years but its also clean to see its been played Side One shows the most marking with few hairlines and some light bag type marks from handling and putting in out of sleeve, Side Two is has less marking with only the odd few bag and handing marks and the odd scuff. The Record is still looking clean and has been cared for had the marking on side one been less it would of made the Ex grade as such I feel its still worth listing as it plays well and still looks nice not showing lots of marking like some people seem to list these days I bin most of these no matter what the item. Please Check my Playback information. VG/VG+

Playback

It plays well there are no jumps etc, the sound is clear and crisp with a good enjoyment the record played well both sides with some light crackle in mostly the low areas of music even then only light and does not affect the enjoyment of the record still a good playable copy just not quite up there in the mint league. VG/VG+

My Record Grading System (Based On UK Record Collector Guide)

I Try and play all my items before Listing Please Check my own Details Record/playback If
You want to Ask Please Feel Free to do so Always Happy to Talk about Records.

I always give Clear Information on all items such as the Sleeves and Records,
Along with Extra items like Inners or Posters etc.

PLEASE NOTE I DON”T USE “MINT” MY HIGHEST GRADE IS NEAR MINT OR M-

(M) Rarely used unless Item is still un-open new. Mainly for new or Re-issue Records

(M-) OR NEAR MINT (A Fantastic Collector Copy)
Very Clean Item with little signs of use, looking almost as new both sides clean with No Scratches
or Surface marks there might be odd Paper marks. Should any copy fail to meet this grade I Prefer to list
down a grade but I always provide sufficient information.

(Ex) (Collector Copy)
The Record has clearly been Played shows some signs of enjoyment, Strong Copy Retaining Full Crisp sound.
Might be odd surface Line or Few Very Minor hairline marks or a few Scuffs. Playback would Still Be Ace with
no Playback Issues.

(EX-) OR (VG+) (Good Keeper Copy)
This Grade means that the copy may have slightly more signs of use but would always have Good Crisp sound.
It might have extra paper marks or Few Hairlines or even an odd Scratch this would not be Audible unless said
and how the Scratches affects the Record would clearly be listed.

(VG) (KEEPER COPY)
The Item has clearly been played many times but Despite Visual Marks Like Hair lines or Scratches and Some
Surface marks. The Sound Still Retains Good playback, if there is a scratch that Sounds I clearly indicate
where it occurs and how it affects the track playing time.

When I use a Grade less than VG it would normally be due to a record being very rare or a sleeve that I feel
does not fit with VG due to Repairs or damage mostly records under VG are Only Fit for the Bin. But if you
are unsure just ask.
