JETHRO TULL THIS WAS MONO 1ST PRESS ILP 985 A/B PINK ISLAND TEXTURED RED EYE MATRICES
Having A Clear Out Of Some Of My Dads Old Records
Firstly I'm Not a Record Dealer
But
I do like my Records and am in no way a Novice when it comes to Condition etc
I will Try to Describe The Album as Accurately as Possible, if there is any additional info you require
Please email through ebay
There are plenty of pictures to help you make a judgement yourselves on visual condition
I realise that's not listening to it, so if you win the item and are really unhappy with my description on the listing, then just return the record in the condition you received it, for a Full refund including your postage.
No Partial Refunds though.
Can't say fairer than that.

Condition Grading Using Record Collector Magazine Grades
I have used grades as per the bottom of the listing, haven't bothered with plus plus minus etc otherwise where does it end?
Also I haven't tried to Clean The Record at all
Album Cover ............ Very Good to Excellent
One crease in the Laminate Wide Spine with some Minor Wear on Edges
Vinyl Audio .... Very Good to Excellent, Side A & Side B
I have played it through and it plays Lovely (Rega Deck )
It does have some crackle in some places and the odd pop now and then but these are mainly only in the Quieter Sections
Vinyl Condition ... Very Good
Although it doesn't effect the sound at all there are a couple of strange hairline drag lines on side A, you can't feel them to touch and they don't affect the sound but there nonetheless, other than that would have been excellent. Think it might have picked up some dust grit/ going in and out of sleeve.
Again it sounds Lovely
No major Scratches, The Record is Not Warped, Doesn't Jump or Skip etc

Record Collector Magazine's Grading Guide:
"MINT: The record itself is in brand new condition with no surface marks or deterioration in sound quality. The cover and any extra items such as the lyric sheet, booklet or poster are in perfect condition. Records advertised as Sealed or Unplayed should be Mint.
EXCELLENT: The record shows some signs of having been played, but there is very little lessening in sound quality. The cover and packaging might have slight wear and / or creasing.
VERY GOOD: The record has obviously been played many times, but displays no major deterioration in sound quality, despite noticeable surface marks and the occasional light scratch. Normal wear and tear on the cover or extra items, without any major defects, is acceptable.
GOOD: The record has been played so much that the sound quality has noticeably deteriorated, perhaps with some distortion and mild scratches. The cover and contents suffer from folding, scuffing of edges, spine splits, discolouration, etc.
FAIR: The record is still just playable but has not been cared for properly and displays considerable surface noise; it may even jump. The cover and contents will be torn, stained and / or defaced.
POOR: The record will not play properly due to scratches, bad surface noise, etc. The cover and contents will be badly damaged or partly missing.
BAD: The record is unplayable or might even be broken, and is only of use as a collection filler."
