The record labels are in STUNNING condition (see pictures) with NO writing, NO wear, and only a VERY few light spindle marks!!!! THIS RECORD CLEARLY HASNT BEEN PLAYED MUCH AT ALL!!!!  The vinyl is in BRILLIANT condition!!!!  Most of these 60s LPs had been to a lot of wild parties and are usually found totally worn out, and almost unplayable. This one is NOT and has NO scratches, only 3 or 4 VERY light hairlines, only 2 or 3 VERY light scufflines, and only a VERY few of the lightest paper scuffs only visible under light!!!! The record also has some 'bag sweat' marks visible under light on one side of the record ONLY.  This is clearly only from long term storage and DOES NOT affect play - apart from some fractional MEGA low level touches of background sound on the run on grooves and occassional gap!!!!  THE RECORD STILL RETAINS ITS ORIGINAL 'JUST PRESSED' LOOK!!!! It is also great to find that the playing of the record is as STUNNING as the visual!!!!  It plays with NO nasty loud pops, NO jumps, NO sticks, and barely ANY crackle!!!!  The sound quality is simply SUPERB with NO groovewear and NO distortion either!!!!  The record must grade Very Good++ if not better!!!! Believe me this record is NOT overgraded in ANY way!!!! I use STRICT RC grading standards - it is not in my interest not to!!!! Brillant!!!!  The record also comes in its ORIGINAL 1st Press inner sleeve!!!!  The 1st Press MONO Gatefold Cover is in BRILLIANT condition and absolutely MILES better than the usual 'trashed' examples that turn up for sale!!!!  It has NO edge wear, NO spinal wear, only VERY slight corner wear, only a VERY few light creases (cover is VERY flat looking), NO rubbing, NO ringwear, and NO writing!!!!  The opening edges are beautifully straight with NO feathering!!!!  Even the unlaminated inside is in BRILLIANT condition with NO writing, NO yellowing, barely ANY rubbing AT ALL, and NO grubbyness!!!!  The only EXTREMELY minor thing to mention are a VERY few VERY faint grubby finger traces on the cover front!!!!  The cover must grade Very Good++ if not better!!!!  THIS LP IS SERIOUSLY RARE AND VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND IN MONO - SO DONT MISS OUT ON THIS MEGA RARE OPPORTUNITY!!!!
