This copy:

Peter Grant (credited on top half of labels)Matrix numbers end with A5 and B5.

Nice sleeve, with working wheel, nice solid spine. A few signs of wear and some light stains, looks great inside gatefold , nice and clean

Inner sleeve, poly lined in great condition, a few creases...

Labels are clean, barely any sign of past use, no writing  - please view all photos

Vinyl looks nice both sides. There are some visible marks, nothing deep or heavy, and some stains on side two

It plays exceptionally well overall, no skips - really powerful , nice and loud! In quiet sections and between tracks there is light crackle, some heavier on side two, especially right at the start  - no jumps or loops though and I only detected a few light clicks ( BYA stomp e.g.) - still though , 54 years on, a pleasant listening experience!

More vinyl listed please look
