Description

Mercury Rev's excellent 1998 album ‘Deserter's Songs’, on original vinyl LP. 
The vinyl is in VG condition, though there is a pressing issue which I'll describe. 
On visual inspection, there are some light marks and and a couple of noticeable scratches, but the record plays well. There is some noise during the end of Holes and beginning of Tonite It Shows, as well as a little during Endlessly and I Collect Coins. These are all quite light though and don't really affect listening.
However, it seems as though there's been an issue with the record pressing. Side 1 plays brilliantly, but Side 2 seems to have been pressed very slightly off-centre: this isn't noticeable during the first few songs, but towards the end and especially during Delta Sun Bottleneck Stomp there's a sort of phase effect. It's quite hard to describe, but sounds like a very slight detuning.
The sleeves are in VG+ condition with only very light wear.
