All records are graded to the Record Collector Guidelines, with extra information added as required when play tested. Also all photos above are of the exact record you will receive if purchased.

This record is in excellent+ condition. It has just a few very faint spindle marks visible on the labels and there are no pen marks, scuffs, fading or stains anywhere. The centres show no wear and are not loose or worn. Overall the labels are clean, bright and in nice shape. 

As for the vinyl itself, both sides have a lovely lustre and show nothing at all major or serious. There is a few faint and minor handling marks in places and a couple of minor superficial 'streaky/blotchy' lines but there is nothing at all nasty or serious. Overall the vinyl is in very nice condition with light signs of use but certainly nothing at all major. 

I play tested the record and it played well throughout. It lays flat on the deck and upon playing there is next to no arm movement noticeable. The audio is excellent with no skips, sticks or tics and no serious surface noise. I noted a little light surface noise in the run ins on each side and a fraction in the intro to side 1 but other than this the vast majority of play has very little audible. Overall it was a thoroughly enjoyable listen with no serious issues and tidy audio quality throughout. 

The gatefold sleeve is in excellent- condition. It is generally tidy all round with no splits, tears, scuffs or pen marks. The spine shows just light wear and is all legible. The top and bottom edges show shelf rubbing all along them however. They are still solid with no weak areas or splits. Other than the light wear on the spine and the rubbing to the top and bottom edges the sleeve has slight fading/ring marks showing to the rear, and a fraction of fading to the front. There is also a few minor creases and light general signs of age throughout. I have tried to describe the sleeve as best I can but please study the pictures provided to gain as much information as possible as to its condition.

It contains its original blue Island inner which is in very good+ condition with no splits, tears or pen marks but some discolouring and signs of age. The record will be sent in a brand new plain white replacement inner to ensure it remains clean and ready to play.

The record will be packaged in between cardboard stiffeners and bubble wrapped thoroughly when dispatched. It will also be sent in a brand new protective plastic sleeve, and within 24hrs of receiving payment to try to ensure a swift delivery.

I hope my photos are comprehensive enough but if you have any questions then don't hesitate to contact me. Also please check my eBay feedback for a positive history of record grading, A1 communication and quick delivery times.

All offers are considered and are more than welcome.

Many thanks for looking.
