Description
BLACK SABBATH "PARANOID", 100% ORIGINAL U.K. EARLY PRESSING from 1970, released on SWIRL VERTIGO with the catnr. 6360011 and LARGE SWIRL
ARTIST: Black Sabbath
TITLE: Paranoid
VINYL CONDITION (VISUAL & PLAY GRADE ): VG(+) & EX(-) The vinyl has retained its original sheen with hairlines and sleeve-removal marks, a few small, fine scratches and a couple of longer, more prominent lines visible on each side, but there is nothing bad anywhere. Although some of the marks can be seen in normal light, they are all superficial. There are NO marks on either side which are feelable and absolutely NO deep scratches, so VG(+). I have played the entire record and it sounds really good. There is some background surface noise and crackle which can be heard in the quiet parts and the run-ins/outs, fades, silent grooves and intros and various places where you get a short-lived repetitive here and there but there is nothing loud or intrusive anywhere. Generally, the tracks such as ' War Pigs', 'Iron Man’, ‘Paranoid', ‘Fairies Wear Boots' and ' Electric Funeral' sound Excellent (EX) to (EX(+)) if not better but the quiet parts grade lower than this, with some tracks (such as Planet Caravan) grading only around Very Good/ to Very Good Plus. This is NOT a copy for the audio-perfectionist, but it plays through perfectly with no jumps, skips or sticking and very little surface noise. It's still a pleasure to listen to. Taking into account the different gradings for the loud and quiet parts, overall, I would play-grade both sides Excellent Minus which is better than VG(+) but not quite EX so EX(-) Properly graded NOT trashed. Play graded on a Rega P3-24 deck. Denon amp.
SLEEVE CONDITION: VG(+) The unlaminated gatefold sleeve has rubbing and general wear . See photos and use zoom-in. Also has original Vertigo poly lined inner. This has creasing If you need any more info or would like to see more photos please contact me.
LABEL: Vertigo 6360011
MATRIX: 1Y//1/ 2Y//1
NOTES: A great example of this Black Sabbath Classic.ONE OTHER THING: On side two (white side) it looks to only have three songs. There is only two gaps between the tracks. Naturally with four tracks there should be three gaps. This was corrected on later pressings.
