Description

Airborn is a 1980 US release, on the Virgin (USA) label, of the UK Platinum double album, more details on the album, including on differences from the UK version, are available on Wikipedia etc. Impressions is a 1980 compilation on the TellyDisc label.
The records are in Very Good+ condition, with minimal noise and no skips. There are light scuffs and other light marks on the Airborn discs. There is just standard light surface noise in the quiet passages. The sleeve of Airborn, graded as VG+, has some creases (see photos) and a little wear at the corners and on the spine. The inner sleeves are generic, one has a couple of spots (possibly tea or coffee stains).  The 2 discs of the Impressions compilation are similarly clean, with a couple of light scratches at the beginning of Tubular Bells, which cause some crackling in the quiet passages early in the piece. Otherwise, the discs just have standard light scuffs and other light marks. The sleeve of Impressions is graded as Excellent with minimal wear (see photos). One of the inner sleeves has TellyDisc advertising, the other is generic.
The Tubular Bells book (1973) has an article written by journalist Karl Dallas and an analysis and simplified score of the piece by David Bedford. The book is graded conservatively as VG+, but might be regarded as Excellent.
A full refund is offered if there is any dispute regarding description/condition.
