Description

This is a genuine rarity and an interesting collector’s oddity – ‘Ege Bamyasi’ by Can (often CAN), the late 60s Cologne based group whom are often proclaimed as pioneers of the krautrock movement.
Anyone searching for this particular LP is likely to be more familiar with it than myself, this appears to be the 1972 UK version based on the layout, typography and with a blacked out rights section; matrices are:
Made In Germany 26414 A2/C3A  Made In Germany 29414 B1/C3A
The sleeve has some minor clarifoil-style bubbling along the spine edge and a handful of creases all over, with one marking the spine which is otherwise perfectly readable - the rear has come away from the top flipback (but I don’t degrade for this; they were never intended to last this long and simply re-glue if preferred). The inner has a few dirt marks and creases but is otherwise excellent.
The disc has one or two minor hairlines under bright sunlight but certainly nothing resembling a feelable mark – I’m comfortable grading EX.

GRADING SYSTEM:
1. NM: Record/sleeve will be near-perfect or have maybe very minor scuff/s from being handled a few times or from the inner sleeve (potentially played once or twice). 
2. EX: Record will have some minor scuffs and possible more noticeable marks preventing a NM grading; a record that was played very little and has been taken care of.
3. VG Plus: Record will have noticeable scuffs and light scratches from being handled and played, but nothing too deep as to affect playback. May have light background noise in quieter areas but still no major issues; a record that has been played and enjoyed but not abused.
4. VG: Record will have scuffs and scratches from being handled and played, causing noticeable background noise and some disturbances/pops but still enjoyable overall; still a good quality record that can be enjoyed with life left.

5. GOOD / FAIR / POOR: Record will have scuffs and major scratches. Can still be played but will have background noise and most likely major distractions such as sustained pops or skips. Records with this grade are used for rare albums or ones that would be best used only for display.
