Details:- From my own personal collection - Rare 1971 1st UK pressing of Reflections On A Life by Welsh band Blonde On Blonde. Released on the original Ember label, catalogue No. NR 5058 This record comes in the original unlaminated gatefold printed by Garrord & Lofthouse.
tracks gene machine / i dont care / love song / bar room blues /sad song for an easy lady / the bargain / the rut / happy families / psychological decontamination unit / chorale (forever)
Vinyl Condition:- VG+ visually but EX grade sound quality. Gleaming shiny vinyl with a few fine surface hairlines. Side 1 has a more visible hairline mark which only causes a few seconds of light background clicks for a few seconds in about three places on the entire side. Side 2 has just a few seconds of a very mild click in a sound effects part of a track. The overall sound quality is crisp, clear and detailed. Fully test played on Rega RP3 Deck, Rega Elicit-R Amp, Rega RS5 Speakers
Sleeve Condition:- EX Small mark on the front with a little white scuff in the centre of the mark, nothing serious. Tiny amount of wear on a couple of corners and one corner has some very small faint creases. The spine is crisp and fully readable and the back is nice and clean. Inside the gatefold is also excellent. The rest of the sleeve is in great condition.
Label Condition:- EX+ No spindle marks and just a tiny amount of wear around the spindle hole

Grading Abbreviations
Grading below is as stated from UK Record Collector. I also use +/- for records that fall somewhere between a grade
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
Fair (F)
The record is still just playable but has not been cared for properly and displays considerable surface noise; it may even jump. The cover and contents will be torn, stained and/or defaced.
Poor (P)
The record will not play properly due to scratched, bad surface noise, etc. The cover and contents will be badly damaged or partly missing
Bad (B) The record is unplayable or might even be broken, and is only of use as a collection-filler
