All records are graded to the Record Collector Guidelines, with extra information added as required when play tested. Also all photos above are of the exact record you will receive if purchased.

This record is in excellent- condition. It has some very faint spindle marks visible on each label(which have no Atlantic logo and the Syperhype credits associated with the UK 1st press) but there are no pen marks, stains or fading. There is however some minor 'bubbles' or raised areas and scuffs to the edge of the label on side 1(see pics). These are not really extreme but are noticeable and of course not ideal.

As for the vinyl itself, both sides have a nice lustre and have nothing really serious, deep or obvious showing. There is signs of use to each side though with light general handling marks and some wispy lines showing when it is angled. These are all very light and of course cannot be felt but they do shoe faintly in places when angled and under bright light. Overall a used vintage lp with some light signs of this but also one that has no nasty or serious marks/scratches. 

I play tested the record and it played well throghout. It lays flat on the deck and upon playing there is little to no movement in the record arm. The sound produced is excellent with no distortion caused by excessive use and no skips, sticks or annoying clicks. There was no major levels of surface noise on either side but there was a little in the run ins, and a touch in parts of track 2 on side 1. There was also a touch audible in the quieter parts of track 3 on side 2. These parts were certainly not noisy to any degree but there was a light amount of surface noise audible in these quieter areas. Overall it was a nice tidy listen though with no major issues and no surface noise that was loud or disruptive. 

The gatefold sleeve is in excellent condition. It has no stand out issues such as tears, scuffs or pen marks but has light general signs of age and handling. There is just mild rubbing and wear to the edges and corners with no splits and a solid square spine. There is some minor wear on the edges of the spine however and a small creased area at the top of it. There is also light fading to both the front and rear. This is far from extreme however and overall it is a solid and presentable sleeve with no major issues, minimal ring marks and hardly any creasing. Please study the pictures provided to gain as much information as possible.

Its contains its original textured inner which is in excellent condition with no splits, tears or pen marks. It has light signs of age with some mild ring marks and minor creasing but no serious issues. The record will of course be sent in a brand new plain white replacement inner to ensure no damage occurs to the original during transit.

The record will be packaged in between cardboard stiffeners and bubble wrapped thoroughly when dispatched. It will also be sent in a brand new protective plastic sleeve, and within 24hrs of receiving payment to try to ensure a swift delivery.

I hope my photos are comprehensive enough but if you have any questions then don't hesitate to contact me. Also please check my eBay feedback for a positive history of record grading, A1 communication and quick delivery times.

All offers are considered and are more than welcome.

Many thanks for looking.
