Description
Vinyl was lightly cleaned and play tested through Focal Elegia's and it played as NM on the A-side and EX+ on the B side. The A-side played as a 98, it was perfect with almost no surface noise at all and visually the A-side looks NM- at worst. The B-side played as a 92 and a visual inspection reveals a number of light surface marks (it looks like at some point it was in a paper sleeve, it's not anymore). The driving issues on the B-side included a bit more surface noise at the start of B2 (there always is on this album), what could have been a missed dust fleck on B3 along with a light tick/dust fleck (not an outright pop) and there was a similar 2 issues on track B4. All this having been said overall the B-side plays super quiet
The sleeve is scored as EX but is as close to NM as can be and I am scoring it a 93, the top of the excellent scale. There is very light corner wear, a couple of small white spots on the cover (they jump out on the black cover, and most of what is in the picture reflecting in the texture and nothing you'll see in person), a 3mm dimple on the bottom seam along with a few small creases (none longer than 10mm) running in from the spine but typically hidden by the OBI, which shows only light wear. The inserts show only minor wear. This is a close to NM as you'll find this cover.
Album will be mailed in a cardboard mailer between cardboard. If you have any questions please let me know and thanks for looking!
