Description

I bought this double LP some years back from during a vinyl buying frenzy. Have played it a couple of times before and again a few days ago to check playback quality for grading purposes. It has been store upright in a record box with the rest of my collection in a cool, dry atmosphere. No previous owners and only played on a high quality playback system. 

Grading cover as NM and disc 1 as EX (due to occasional light crackle I noticed between a couple of tracks on side 1) and disc 2 as EX+. Play-grading was done using my Ortofon Rondo Bronze cartridge and Sennheiser HD800 headphones. It is a quiet, flat pressing (as most SV discs were) and sound quality on the live cuts in particular is very dynamic. This was certainly one of the LP's that SV got right and hence why it commands high prices.

Selling as I hardly ever play my LP's and I want to reduce the amount of stuff I have to put into storage when I travel overseas next year.

It will be carefully mailed in a record mailer using double stiffeners.

Collection from Central London is welcome.

Any questions, please ask :-)

NOTE - this is a genuine rectangular-stickered Simply Vinyl pressing, not the inferior issues with a round sticker from 2010 or so which I understand are poor quality fakes (there appears to be one elsewhere on ebay...). The original Simply Vinyl company went bust sometime around 2004/5 time. The name has now been bought by someone else but they have issued next to nothing thus far.
