ABOUT THIS COPY:
Matrix / Runout (A-side, stamped, variant 1): 2401012 ** A//3 Matrix / Runout (B-side, stamped, variant 1): 2401012 B//4 PECKO DUCK/PORKY
The gatefold sleeve has very little wear and tear, - spine and edges etc. look great for the age - very , very nice inside gatefold. - see photos
The STH lyrics card inner sleeve is the original , and in fantastic condition (often these are trashed) - there is a bit of an opening on bottom edge, the rest fantastic
Labels look OK and have no rips or pen marks, some light centre marks from past playback
Vinyl has some signs of past usage, they are just surface marks /light hairlines if you look closely, no deep scratches ,very clean overall, - they do not cause any major issues , no jumps on playback , and no loud background pops
Playback is very good - some quiet bits and run ins are crackly as you would expect - The most powerful bits sound great! ...
A great listen overall
So, a RARE var. 5 plum label, early release with the 'TOP' error, that has nice a gatefold , a LYRIC inner sleeve, and is very listenable !
Please view all the photos -
Payday treat?....or make an offer … price based on current discogs average, which is over £99!, so I believe good value...
