THE VINYL   MINT-  INCREDIBLE  CONDITION

As you can see, this vinyl is the  1974 ORIGINAL PRESSING- Stored from new this LP has seen JUST ONE  PLAY only, and remains in pristine  condition everywhere.

It has been archived from new until now- ASTONISHING COPY!

This pressing is a superb vinyl which has retained its amazing glossy sheen and finish. There is no dulling anywhere and overall it is in incredible condition for an LP of this age. The edges are silky smooth, typical of these vintage pressings. We are seing fewer and fewer copies of this LP, so rarely do we see a copy at all, let alone like this.

NO SPIDER LINES AROUND THE HOLE

There are  a few fine whisp lines, and thats it-  nothing else!  Just a few little dust specs are on the vinyl when we slid it for checking..

IT REMAINS IN ASTONISHING PLAY CONDITION.

On playing through we heard nothing bar the tiniest of lead in static in the dead grooves..,   it sounds superb!

OVERALL THIS IS SIMPLY A MUST FOR ANY FINAL UPGRADE COLLECTION. YOU WILL NOT SEE BETTER.
