Gatefold + ORIGINAL Swirl Inner

Voted into the 100 THE BEST rock albums of all time this baby ROCKS! Strangely only reaching the No. 4 position in the UK chart, when released on the 18th of September 1970.
Every track really is a banger!

*INCREDIBLY EARLY 1ST PRESS HERE*

The Vinyl:
VG

I gave her a gentle ultrasonic clean, followed by a vacuum clean to take up the final moisture and then played her on both sides-TWICE!
There are light marks to this slab of rock...BUT NO JUMPS OR SKIPS...yes, there are some pops and crackles-but these were pretty soft and didn't overcome the audio...But to be clear-this has been used and probably played at parties-quite right too! More noticeable in quiet sections between tracks but not bad at all-equally not mint or straight from a time machine. I could hear Tommi Lommi slide his fingers up the neck of the guitar for the chord change on Paranoid.
QUALITY

The Labels:
EX+

Superb WHITE labels with the 1st press LARGE SWIRL.
Please see the detailed images for the superb condition.

The Cover:
VG+

Gatefold NOT LAMINATED cover in great, solid condition. Due to it not being laminated it displays some light rubbing to the edges and spine...BUT NOT RIPS/TEARS OR SPLITS.
NO WRITING EITHER.
Again-great, solid quality from 1970's Sabbath here.

The Inner:
VG-

It is the ORIGINAL VERTIGO ORIGINAL SWIRL inner with the poly-lining.
One side is taped and the other has a split to the seam at the top...There's also a transfer to one side which, as I remember, is from the period ;)

AS THIS IS ONE OF MY FAVOURITE ALBUMS IT REALLY WASN'T A CHORE TO LISTEN TO TWICE!
GREAT SOLID AUDIO BLASTING OUT FROM 1970-AS GROUND BREAKING NOW AS IT WAS WHEN RELEASED 55 YEARS AGO!
