This is the earliest pressing available of this classic rock album.
Fortunately, It is a top copy, making it a true classic rock collectible.
The Record Grades Excellent. Beautiful Vibrant Jet Black surfaces, hard to see any flaws, plays fantastic with only light static crackle in quiet areas. There are two light marks on side 1, and one on side 2, only to be seen when tinted towards a light. apart from that just the very odd sleeve removal mark. The best Copy I have ever seen, certainly an 8.5-9/10. 5 or 6 plays minimum I would say. I have listened to this and it sounds superb. Satisfaction Guaranteed.
The Sleeve is also a beautiful example, grades a minimum excellent, Beatifully Vibrant and Crisp, nice clear laminate, strong readable spine, little or no shelf wear. Inner Wheel Firmly attached. Gatefold crisp also, tiny area at top of gatefold where a name sticker has been removed which makes a tiny wrinkly appearance, pictured. Does not take away from the beauty of this sleeve, A true work of art, the way it should be viewed.
The Labels are flawless and comes in original Inner sleeve of the time. Clearly a very well looked after item. Any true collector will not be disappointed with this. It is the next best thing to a mint copy, just a few signs that the record received a few plays in it's early days. Satisfaction Guaranteed, up there with the most desirable UK First Pressings, Incredible.
