Description
Transitional press with the withdrawn ‘loud cut’ version on side 1 only.
The matrix no’s / stampers are:
Side 1: XEX 579-1 2 LH
Side 2: XEX 580-4 1 GPG
KT tax code on side 1
Visually the vinyl looks VG/VG+. It is clean with some scuffing (mainly on side 1), some light marks but no deep scratches. It plays absolutely fine with great audio and with no skips, no repetitive clicks and without persistent background noise. The only real flaw I noted was some crackle and slight distortion on “Michelle”.
The labels are clean and free of handwriting. There are plenty of spindle traces but little wear to the spindle hole.
The EJ Day sleeve is EX, no splits or tears, light edge wear, fully legible spine. There is some light creasing and ageing to the rear. The original price (32/-) is written on top lh corner
Original EMITEX rice paper lined Inner has a split in the centre of one edge.
The disc has been machine cleaned on my Pro-ject machine (using Pro-ject’s own alcohol free cleaning fluid) and comes in a brand new anti static lined inner.
Postage will be tracked and fully insured.
International Buyers: postage costs will vary according to country and sale price but won’t be more than the quoted price and will be less for Europe. Please ask for quote / wait for invoice. Any customs / Vat / import duties to be paid by buyer

-----------------
Gradings refer to the UK Record Collector Magazine standard (shown below). I would only use "mint" for genuinely unplayed records. Visual grading is done under a spotlight. Play testing is done on my Pro-ject or Rega turntable.
If buyer is not satisfied for any reason please contact me, I will refund on safe return of item.
Record will be packaged in a proper mailer with stiffening. I will pack with the record removed from the outer sleeve.
Mint (M) - 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 marked as Sealed or Unplayed should be Mint.
Excellent (EX) - 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 (VG) - 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 any major defects is acceptable
Good (G) - The record has been played so much that the sound quality has noticeably deteriorated, perhaps with some distortion and mild scratches. The cover and contents suffer from folding, scuffing of edges, spine splits, discolouration, etc
