Gatefold sleeve is in good*condition. Marred by a tape repair to a bottom seam, a few scuffs and a name written on the back.

These can be seen on the photographs included with this listing. The Vertigo logo on the front is meant to be green. It hasn't been coloured in felt pen.

Sleeve design by Roger and Martyn Dean.

Record is in very good*condition. I would have said excellent but for the name written on the “Swirl” label

The sound quality is excellent as as you can confirm for yourself on the attached eCommerce Player. (In fact my request is that you listen before placing any bid.)

(Recorded on my Rega turntable using “Audacity”, exported as 128 kbps MP3 file and uploaded into eCommerce Player. No editing whatsoever, just a pause between sides one and two)

Under bright light I can see a number of very light lines on the disc.

Record is in Vertigo “swirl” inner sleeve which is quite tatty. One edge is slit open.

Images are of the album offered at this auction.

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.
