Description

I have been in the music business for over 35 years, starting at Polydor Records in 1970.  The time has come to reduce my sizable collection of vinyl and music related memorabilia.

Each item is personally graded visually.  This has also been play tested.

Black Sabbath
'Paranoid'

12" vinyl LP

Cat  6360 011 UK

Year 1970

Management listing inner G/F  'Jim Simpson, Big Bear, Birmingham' credit.

Vinyl:
Side A   VERY GOOD (visual)     VERY GOOD (audio)
Side B   VERY GOOD+ (visual)   VERY GOOD+ (audio)

Audio VERY GOOD but close to VERY GOOD+
No skips, no jumps, no drop outs in audio.
Audible light clicks on parts of Warpigs (see photo for close up view of the mark ) and a few light clicks in between tracks 5 & 6 (Electric Funeral & Hand of Doom) In my opinion, it does not affect the overall listening experience.
Note - there is no break in between the tracks of Hand of Doom and Rat Salad

Unlaminated Sleeve - VERY GOOD+
No rips or tears **please see photos**

Vertigo Inner Sleeve - Big Swirl VERY GOOD+ no rips, some age discolouration.  Number 212 is written on both sides.

Labels - VERY GOOD+ some mild ageing around spindle hole **please see photos **

The super rare first pressing at a reasonable price.

If you have any queries or require further information feel free to pop me a message.

Thanks for looking.


PLEASE NOTE
This item will be sent via Royal Mail special delivery post (£7.25 at a cost to me) and will arrive the next working day by 1.00 pm. I aim to ship within 3 working days as specified in my 'dispatch time'.
