Description

From my personal collection, this is the rare original 1976 pressing on Harvest Records UK, catalog number SHSP 4056.  I bought this used in about 1985, I think.  The vinyl is play graded solid VG+ with a little minor surface noise here and there in the quiet bits; I listened to this in its entirety recently, and it sounded great!  The cover is also solid VG+, with some visible creasing and normal edge/spine/corner and laminate wear.  Still a great looking & sounding copy, though: please see the hi-res photos for the general lay of the land.  I need to clear out some space, so this gem is in search of a new home.  Be sure to check out my other listings!
