NEAR MINT COVER
the best I have seen for many, many years
superb deep black, clean white and blazing orange colour with no fading, rubbing, scuffing or dulling - even the spine is square, sharp and completely unfaded - the inner pages are perfect with no signs of handling - NO circular wear to either the front, interior or rear sleeve - merely light bumps to two corners
MINT INNER
an exceptional jet black and snow white example of the classic spiral inner sleeve
no fading, yellowing or any of the usual glue stains
the fourth and most monumental chapter in the history of Black Sabbath
SOME OF THE MOST BRUTALLY POWERFUL MUSIC THE BAND EVER RECORDED IS ON THIS ASTONISHING RECORD - WHEELS OF CONFUSION, SNOWBLIND AND UNDER THE SUN, IN PARTICULAR, ARE MASSIVELY POWERFUL AND UNRIVALLED IN THE HISTORY OF HARD ROCK AND HEAVY PROGRESSIVE MUSIC - A FIRST PRESS RECORD IS THE ONLY WAY TO FULLY APPRECIATE THESE MIGHTY TRACKS, REVEALING THE ORIGINAL CATHARTIC POWER OF BLACK SABBATH IN ALL ITS GLORY, WITHOUT THE SEEMINGLY ENDLESS REISSUING, COPYING, TRANSFERING, REMASTERING AND VARIOUS OTHER DILUTIONS OF THE TOWERING ORIGINAL ESSENCE. . .
an awesome original - one of the best copies of this classic I’ve ever seen
