All records are graded to the Record Collector Guidelines, with extra information added as required when play tested. Also all photos above are of the exact record you will receive if successful.

This record is in excellent+ condition. It has just a few(4-5) faint spindle marks visible on the labels and neither side has pen marks or scuffs. The label on side 1 has been stuck on off centre however. Other than this fairly minor issue the labels are clean, bright and free of major problems.

As for the vinyl itself, both sides are really clean with nothing remotely serious showing in normal light. There is one small thin white line or mark in track 2 on side 2 but other than this very little showing. There is some incredibly light wispy lines or minor light sleeve scuffs showing under bright light but nothing remotely deep or serious. So overall the record is in very nice condition, has a beautiful lustre and shows only light signs of use.

I play tested the record and it played near perfectly and sounded superb throughout with excellent clarity and next to no surface noise or interference. It lays flat, there is no movement in the record arm and the sound produced is excellent with no distortion caused by excessive use and of course no skips, sticks or annoying clicks. The small white line or mark mentioned above(in track 2, side 2) causes 4 or 5 of the most minor, faintest possible, sounds imaginable but these are barely even audible to be honest and are very minor indeed. Overall it was a pleasure to play test and produced audio of great quality and excellent clarity throughout which easily grades as EX+.

The embossed sleeve is in near mint condition. It has little to no wear or rubbing to the edges and corners with the writing along the spine all clearly legible. There are of course no splits, and no tears, scuffs or pen marks anywhere. There are no serious ring marks evident and little to no creasing. Overall it is clean, bright and strong and in superb condition all round. Please study the pictures provided to gain as much information as possible as to its condition.

It includes its original lyric inner which is in excellent+ condition. This has no splits, tears or pen marks and only very minor signs of use. I will send the record in a brand new plain white replacement to ensure no damage occurs to the original during transit.

The record will be packaged in cardboard stiffeners and bubble wrapped thoroughly when dispatched. It will also be sent in a brand new protective plastic sleeve, and within 24hrs of receiving payment to try to ensure a swift delivery.

I hope my photos are comprehensive enough but if you have any questions then don't hesitate to contact me. Also please check my eBay feedback for a positive history of record grading, A1 communication and quick delivery times.

All offers are considered and are more than welcome.

Many thanks for looking.
