Vinyl is VG/VG+ Jacket is VG+  Inner Sleeve is VG+
please see grading descriptions below
I have the listing title with First Pressing as a question because I'm just confused about all the variants on Discogs, but all signs point to a first pressing: catalog number, textured cover, and no producer credits on the labels.

I played the entire record and there were no skips or repeats. You'll hear occasional light surface noise though between tracks and during softer passages/fades. There is also an evident series of very light ticks during the acoustic intro of Love Alive, but it isn't sustained for too long.

The inner sleeve is fully intact with no splits.

Please review the pictures for further details on the condition of the jacket.


Your record will be shipped in a cardboard LP mailer and wrapped in shipper's wrap inside for further moisture protection. The record will be removed from the jacket and placed in the inner sleeve outside of it so that it doesn't slide around inside the jacket and create damage during transit. If the record has a unique picture sleeve the record will be placed in a generic sleeve for shipping.

If you have any special packing requests contact me BEFORE making payment so that I can adjust the shipping costs accordingly. Please do not bother to send me a message with packing instructions after payment as it will be disregarded.

REGARDING SHIPPING: The default shipping option that you see is Media Mail which is inexpensive, but sometimes unpredictable with no guaranteed delivery time. I have shipped over 1000 records using Media Mail without any hassles, but there have been a few instances where the record took a month to arrive and was stuck at a sorting facility for two or more weeks. If you want a faster method with a guaranteed delivery time I suggest that you choose the Priority Mail option.

Grading System Definitions:
Mint (M) - Perfect condition. Completely clean, no marks and unplayed. Almost only used for factory sealed items. Occasionally used for open, unplayed records.
Near Mint / Excellent (NM/EX) - Nearly perfect with shiny gloss, plays perfectly with no imperfections. Typically only played a few times or less. Cover will have no more than very minor imperfections, showing only signs of slight handling. Covers should have no creases, folds, seam splits, cut-out holes, or other noticeable similar defects. The same should be true of any other inserts, such as posters, lyric sleeves, etc. 
Very Good Plus (VG+) - Record will show some signs that it was played and otherwise handled by a previous owner who took good care of it. Defects should be more of a cosmetic nature, not affecting the actual playback as a whole. Record surfaces may show some signs of wear and may have slight scuffs or very light scratches that don't affect one's listening experiences. Slight warps that do not affect the sound are "OK". The label may have some ring wear or discoloration, but it should be barely noticeable. Spindle marks may be present. Picture sleeves and inner sleeves will have some slight wear, slightly turned-up corners, or a slight seam split. An LP cover may have slight signs of wear, and may be marred by a cut-out hole, indentation, or cut corner. In general, if not for a couple of minor things wrong with it, this would be Near Mint. 
Very Good (VG) - Surface noise will be evident upon playing, especially in soft passages and during a song's intro and fade, but will not overpower the music otherwise. Groove wear will start to be noticeable, as with light scratches (deep enough to feel with a fingernail) that will affect the sound. Labels may be marred by writing, or have tape or stickers (or their residue) attached. The same will be true of picture sleeves or LP covers. However, it will not have all of these problems at the same time.
