Record jacket is like new, in Near Mint condition. All corners are sharp, spine is straight and glossy cover of gatefold sleeve is nice and shiny. Vinyl is beautiful... nice and shiny. Play grade reveals a small amount of surface noise in spots... nothing major, but lessens grade to Excellent.

Side 1 1. Dry Sands Of The Desert 2. Saudação Popular 3. Ice Of The North 4. Reunion
Side 2 5. Subterranean Caves of Kronos 6. The Gates Of Dafos 7. Passage
Review: This is a wonderful "soundscapes" album with many great songs and the sound is superb. It was recorded at the Japan Center Theater in San Francisco without an audience and it really does capture the sound of the room well. ~ Amazon
