Description
The time has come to sell my record collection... while this is sad, I will be glad for them to go to good homes where they are played, appreciated, and danced to!
What can I say – this is one of the greatest albums of all time.
If you don’t have a copy you need to get one, so why not buy this one!
This is Pink Floyd’s 8th album, and has spent over 900 weeks in the Billboard top album chart, with >45 million copies sold worldwide. The iconic cover of a prism with light being refracted into colours was designed by Hipgnosis and George Hardie.
While you can’t really dance to most of it, unless you’re comfortable with swaying around like Kate Bush, it is a great chillout album, full of deep music including acousmatics and atmospheric stereo effects, that run alongside deep lyrical themes of humanity and insanity.
You can find the album on YouTube if you want to listen before you buy:

There were two singles released from the album, “Money” and “Us and Them”.
Condition
The condition is as you would expect for a well-loved, but cherished album.
The record is in very good condition: nice and shiny, with only a few light surface marks that do not interfere with playback.
The outer sleeve is in reasonable condition, with small creasing and signs of wear around each edge, where the black design is worn down to the cardboard. There is some fraying damage to the top and bottom of the gatefold spine.
The plain white inner sleeve is creased at the corners, has a small discolouration, and has partially worn through along the bottom fold, but it is original.
Postage
All 12" records will be sent in MusicMAX strong locktab mailers to help prevent bending or damage during transit and ensure safe arrival.
