Visual grading
The photos perhaps do not do the vinyl justice. The vibrant blue is so vivid and the marbled look just makes it even more visually stunning. There are plenty of black and white flecks/swirls adding to this. I purchased it from new and I can only detect a couple of faint hairlines and a couple of tiny marks on S1. S2 is immaculate.
Play grading
'Let There Be More Light' plays very well for a boot and the only real interference is a swish static type sound once per revolution for about one minute. Aside from that it has excellent audio with only the odd dust tick here and there. The other tracks have hardly any 'background' and play with a definition and clarity that is very rare on coloured vinyl bootlegs. 'Set The Controls...' in particular has very distinctive audio and no interference of any note. 'Corporal Clegg' does have some distortion in 2/3 areas but remains an excellent listen nonetheless.
I have to say the audio on 'A Saucerful Of Secrets' on S2 is very impressive indeed. For a track having so many quiet sections the clarity is stunning. The only background is the a few very light dust ticks but you will find this on new standard vinyl let alone a bootleg! The sound quality really is of an excellent standard. The two other tracks on this side also play with barely any interference. 'See-Saw' has a little distortion only and 'Jugband Blues' plays with Near Mint sound such is the high end quality.
Cover
The glossy cover is in near immaculate condition with only a tiny amount of 'spotting' on the back cover. It is just a shade of being Mint.
The labels
They are in superb shape with no spindle wear, writing or marks.
