THE VINYL DISC HOWEVER HAS BEEN HEAVILY PLAYED OVER THE YEARS AND THE VINYL SURFACES HAVE LOST THEIR DEEP GLOSSY LUSTRE AND TAKEN ON A SOMEWHAT DULL FLAT APPEARANCE AND THE DISC HAS MANY SURFACE,NEEDLE AND HANDLING MARKS ,I HAVE PLAYED THE RECORD AND REMARKABLY IT JUMPS IN ONLY ONE PLACE AT THE END OF "ROLL OVER BEETHOVEN" WHERE THERE IS A FEELABLE MARK IN THE DISC .IT SEEMS TO PLAY THROUGH THE REST OF THE MARKS ON THE VINYL WITH NO ILL EFFECTS BUT THERE IS A LOT OF CRACKLING BETWEEN AND ON THE TRACKS BUT IS STILL LISTENABLE TO AT VOLUME .THE LABELS ARE CLEAN AND BRIGHT AND FREE FROM ANY MAJOR DISTRESS AND ALL THE TEXT ( INCLUDING CREDITS AND ERRORS) ARE LEGIBLE (SEE PICS)
A REALLY HARD TO FIND COLLECTABLE THESE DAYS AS A FIRST PRESSING WHICH IS MAINLY THE REASON FOR LISTING THIS ITEM THE SLEEVE THE INNER AND THE LABELS ARE IN FIRST CLASS CONDITION ( IN PARTICULAR THE SLEEVE A REAL RARITY) THE VINYL ISN'T AS GOOD BUT IT IS AN OPPORTUNITY TO FILL A GAP IN YOUR COLLECTION IF IN THE FUTURE YOU CAN PICK UP A BETTER VINYL DISC.
