VINYL: EXCELLENT+
Both sides of this rare and collectable EARLY UK PRESS vinyl have a nice, glossy black sheen.
Visually, both sides are also EXCELLENT+ and the record sits very nicely on the spindle.
There are just a few very small and faint paper sleeve "removal" marks on each side - most of which are only visible when viewed at an angle and under a strong halogen lamp. Plus three other very small and light hairline marks on Side One - which make four light "pops" during playback. There is also one longer but very light and faint hairline on Side Two - which does not affect playback, guaranteed. Both sides of vinyl have a couple of very light static "pops" - which are only present very occasionally. This really is a fantastic copy with TOP AUDIO and the overall playback and sonic quality throughout is SUPERB.
This early UK press has a loud, strong and well-defined audio reproduction - much stronger and with more clarity than other pressings I have heard.
Audio playback is a solid and enjoyable 7.5-8/10 throughout.
Record sits flat and plays through with no sticks, skips or jumps.
SLEEVE: EXCELLENT- Early UK press unlaminated gatefold in smooth matt card has the 8-page inner booklet stapled in place on the inside. Rare Kinney sticker on the inside back of the gatefold. Storage wear to the corners and outer edges. Light ringwear on both the front and back covers. One light crease to a corner edge on the back cover. A very nice, solid copy with no writing, folds, bends, stickers, splits, snags, pulls, rips or tears.
SPINE: VERY GOOD++ Text is fully readable with light wear along the length and storage wear to its corner edges. No folds, creases, bends, splits or snags.
LABELS: EXCELLENT++ / VERY GOOD++ Early UK press smooth green and dark orange labels with full colour Atlantic logos on each side. Some light spindle marks on Side One. Heavier marks to the Side Two label.
INSERT: EXCELLENT++ Full colour 8-page booklet with band photos and psychedelic artwork is still stapled inside the gatefold. Two very small discolouring spots on Pages 6 & 7. No folds, bends, writing, stickers, splits, rips or tears.
