Notes

"Picture disc pressed by Metronome Records of Germany, with photo-setting by Conways. Recorded at Island Studios". 

This is a 180 gram vinyl LP picture disc, featuring a mandala image on side one & 'dynamo' image on reverse, both creating a 'psychedelic' visual imagery when rotating on a turntable. It was one of the very first multi-laminate mass-produced 'progressive rock music' picture discs to be produced and was released in a limited edition of 10,000 pressings. 

It was issued in a clear plastic sleeve. 
No timings on disc.
    Condition - Vinyl in VG+ condition  


    If you have ever owned or listened to this Picture disc Version of this Album you will know that even from New the sound quality was never as good as the traditional black vinyl issue ,but saying that this is one of the best of this version I have come across happy to grade as a strong VG+ 

    PLEASE SEE PHOTOS I HAVE TRIED TO SHOW A TRUE REPRESENTATION.

    1: I grade in line with UK Record Collector grading system as set out below 

    I use (+) or (-) to my gradings where applicable.
    MINT: 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 advertised as Sealed or Unplayed should be Mint.  EXCELLENT: 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: 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: 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, discoloration, etc. FAIR: 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: The record will not play properly due to scratches, bad surface noise, etc. The cover and contents will be badly damaged or partly missing. BAD: The record is unplayable or might even be broken, and is only of use as a collection-filler.

    2: If for some reason you disagree with my grading please email me so I have a chance to resolve the matter before leaving negative feedback.

    3: Should the item differ from the description I will gladly issue a refund.Contact must be made within 7 days of receipt of the item Please be aware that buyers are responsible for return postage costs

    4: I am not a professional Record dealer just a keen record collector who has been collecting records for over 40 years. Probably like yourself still loves Vinyl
