Audio
What a gem of a vinyl. Extra loud cut engineering heard at its ultimate best! Astronomy Domine kick starts this monster, and the channels are truly sensational. The tones are delivered clearly with a sharp definition. The stereophonic perspective is awesome ,transmitting an extensive range of dynamic sound like no other. The layered effect of the music is captivating and truly hypnotic, as Floyd’s ever repetitive revolutions of tones entrances the senses, culminating in a heavy trip of pulsating rhythms. Channels operate with minimal surface disturbance. A remarkable clarity seldom offered from this release!
Complete with its original E M I advertising inner sleeve in very good condition.

The second picture (the smaller label picture ) is NOT correct. The actual label is shown by the second label picture. So the bigger one where you can read all the label info. On the other side of the record (side 2) the letters K and T are on the middle of the label.
