HERE IS A RARE OPPORTUNITY TO GET A COPY OF THIS SCARCE 1970 JAZZ / PROG ALBUM ON THE VERTIGO LABEL. A HARD ONE TO FIND ! IT FEATURES APPEARANCES FROM CHRIS SPEDDING, IAN CARR AND HERBIE FLOWERS. SOME GREAT HORNS & CHUNKY GUITAR LICKS.
THE DISC IS FLAT, IT HAS SOME LIGHT SURFACE HAIRLINES , SCUFFS AND SURFACE MARKS. THERE ARE NO FEELABLE SCRATCHES OR ANYTHING OF CONCERN. THERE IS A TRACE OF LIGHT CRACKLE ON THE INTROS AND BETWEEN TRACKS BUT THE AUDIO IS EXCELLENT WITH NO ALARMING FAULTS, JUST THE OCCASIONAL SOFT POP. THE LABELS ARE CLEAN , BOTH SHOWING SOME SPINDLE TRAILS. THE RECORD HAS CERTAINLY SEEN USE BUT HAS NOT BEEN THRASHED BY ANY MEANS.
VISUAL GRADE : VERY GOOD+
AUDIO GRADE : EXCELLENT
A REALLY GREAT SOUNDING DISC WITH NO WORRYING FAULTS
THE COVER HAS MODERATE WEAR TO THE CORNERS AND SPINE WHERE ALL OF THE TEXT REMAINS INTACT. THERE IS A SMALL DENT ON THE FRONT AND A MINOR CREASE TO ONE OF THE REAR CORNERS. THE INSIDE PANELS HAVE NO DAMAGE, NEAR PERFECT. THERE IS NO WRITING, NO TEARS, NO ISSUES APART FROM THOSE MENTIONED.
COVER GRADE : VERY GOOD+
THE SWIRL INNER HAS A BIT OF CREASING TO THE BOTTOM CORNERS AND A SMALL INSIDE TAPE REPAIR TO A SMALL TEAR AROUND THE CENTRE HOLE. NO SPLITS OR DAMAGE OF NOTE. THE INNER IS DATE STAMPED 2 JULY 1970.
