Description
BILLY JOEL : THE STRANGER
S CBS 82311
This is the original 1977 "made in England" 1st pressing without the "Family Productions" logo on the label
(2nd presses have the hyena logo family production on the label)
Also track 6 on side 2 is not mentioned either on the record sleeve or the label itself (This was corrected in later re released pressings)
matrix nos: (side A) CBS S 82311 A1
(side B) CBS S 82311 B1
Original white paper inner sleeve (not split)
Original inner lyric sheet with Billy photo on the rear in excellent condition.
Outer sleeve in excellent condition with only some very light spider line creasing to the lower edge, and some light shelf marks to the corners. The only thing that stops me from describing the cover as near mint is the fact that when held up to the light you can see that someone has used it to lean on when addressing an envelope and this has left a light impression (this isn't immediately obvious, you do have to look for it)
Vinyl I would describe as excellent to near mint, with little to no signs of ever being played. This bears itself out in the fact that there is no hiss, clicks or crackle anywhere on this LP.
Definately not easy to come across this particular variant in such good condition.
Please study the photos carefully as these form the basis of the description
