CONDITION
Visual: Side 1: MINT - Side 2: EXCELLENT
Clean, deep-gloss playing surfaces of which side 1 is totally unmarked. Side 2 bears 2/3 light surface scuffs and a just feelable 1cm scratch at the beginning of the first track on that side. Both labels are clean & bright with a small amount of well-aimed spindle trails around each centre hole.
Audio: Side 1: MINT - Side 2: EXCELLENT
Side 1 sounds flawless & wonderful. Side 2 opens with 5/6 clicks on 'What Goes On' but then plays without fault. This is overall a superb sounding copy which, despite a minor issue, will not disappoint.
Cover: EXCELLENT +
A truly 1st class, clean & strong example with a richly coloured high-gloss front panel which is free from any 'thumbnail' wrinkles or any other creasing. There is a very light disc impression form storage but all corners are sharp and undamaged. The rear panel is pristine clean & white all over. All flipbacks, both seams and the spine are in perfect condition.
Inner-sleeve: EXCELLENT
Clean & crisp with light storage wrinkles only.
