All my records are cleaned carefully on a £400 Moth RCM Wet and Dry cleaner then play tested on a Mitchell Synchro deck.  They are then placed in a Nagaoka antistatic sleeve and a heavy weight vinyl outer before despatch in heavy weight mailer with card stiffeners

This record has excellent labels showing very little spindle marking, just one small mark on side 1 label see pictures.

The vinyl is clean and shiny on both sides and is v good + visually (Under daylight) and excellent audibly, a number of light marks can be seen under bright light. No discernable background noise but remember this was a live album and actually had "crackling noises" when pressed as described on the labels (Says "crackling noises O.K. do not correct" on label). This album was dressed up to resemble a bootleg but was an official Track Records release.  This is the much harder to find BLACK TEXT version, the very first press with A11 and B11 matrix numbers.

The delicate soft textured card gatefold sleeve shows only light wear, there are no major creases, no tears or scuffs just a few light areas of light discolouration to edges and some very faint brown mottling with age on rear. The original 2 staples are intact, no tears or creases to the pouch which holds the inserts.  Some mustiness after storage for 36 + years!

The inserts are all mint to excellent, poster is fantastic and mint has never been mounted, only creases are the original two folds put in before it was placed in the sleeve.  Some corners of the letters etc are very slightly creased but overall condition is superb.  Only insert missing is the group photo.  See the pictures of all inserts included.

 All my records are sent out in high quality thick card mailers just 1-2days after I receive payment.  I grade records as carefully as I can using the Record Collector UK Grading System.

I use the UK 'RECORD COLLECTOR' gradings which are as follows:

• MINT - The record itself is in brand new condition with no surface marks or deterioration in sound quality. The cover and any extra items such as the lyric sheet, booklet or poster are in perfect condition. Records advertised as SEALED or UNPLAYED should be MINT.

• EXCELLENT - The record shows some signs of having been played but there is very little lessening in sound quality. The cover and packaging might have slight wear and/or creasing.

• VERY GOOD - The record has obviously been played many times but displays no major deterioration in sound quality, despite noticeable surface marks and the occasional light scratch. Normal wear and tear on the cover or extra items, without major defects is acceptable.

• GOOD - The record has been played so much that the sound has noticeably deteriorated, perhaps with some distortion and mild scratches. The cover and contents may suffer from folding, scuffing of edges, spine splits, discolouration etc.
