CONDITION
VINYL: CONSIDERING THAT THIS SLICE OF ULTRA RARE VINYL IS OVER 53 YEARS OLD IT STILL SHAPES UP REALLY WELL. BOTH SIDES ARE VERY,VERY CLEAN WITH JUST SOME OCCASIONAL LIGHT SURFACE MARKS AND ONE FINE HAIRLINE MARK. I HAVE PLAYED THE ALBUM THROUGH FROM START TO FINISH BEFORE LISTING AND IT WAS WONDERFUL TO HEAR THIS LP AGAIN.THIS ALBUM REPRESENTS THE BEGINNING OF THE LEGEND THAT IS BUDDY HOLLY AND WHAT A TOP TOP LP IT IS. ALL TRACKS PLAY THROUGH REALLY WELL WITH NICE CLEAR SOUND THROUGHOUT.THE VERY LAST TRACK ON THE SIDE TWO HAS A FEW LIGHT BACKGROUND CLICKS WHICH QUICKLY FADE AND CERTAINLY DON'T DETRACT FROM WHAT IS A GEM OF A RECORD.A VISUAL GRADE OF VERY GOOD SEEMS VERY FAIR AND THE PLAY GRADE IS AT LEAST EXCELLENT OR BETTER.
SLEEVE: THE DELICATE FRONT LAMINATED CLARIFOIL SLEEVE HAS A SEAM SPLIT TO THE CENTRE OF THE TOP EDGE AND SOME CORNER WEAR.THERE IS A SMALL AMOUNT OF CRACKING TO THE LAMINATE TOWARDS THE LOWER SECTION OF THE FRONT IMAGE.THE REAR OF THE SLEEVE IS NOT LAMINATED AND HAS A TWO CMS SPLIT THAT IS TO THE LOWER PART OF THE OPENING EDGE. THIS HAS NOT TRANSFERRED TO THE FRONT EDGE WHICH IS FINE.THREE OF THE SEAMS ON THE REAR OF THE SLEEVE HAVE BEEN REPAIRED WITH CLEAR TAPE IN THE DISTANT PAST. THE REAR OF THE SLEEVE HAS SOME AGE AND YELLOWING MARKS.AS YOU CAN SEE,FOR IT'S YEAR, IT'S STILL A VERY ACCEPTABLE COPY.GIVEN IT'S AGE AND ORIGINAL DELICATE DESIGN IT HAS SURVIVED REMARKABLY WELL. I HAVE GRADED IT AT AROUND VERY GOOD.
