The record labels are in STUNNING condition (see pictures) with NO wear, NO writing, and only a few light spindle marks!!!! The vinyl is in GREAT condition!!!! Most of these 60s LPs had been to a lot of wild parties and are usually found totally worn out, and almost unplayable.  This one is NOT and has NO scratches, only 2 or 3 light hairlines, only 2 or 3 light scufflines, 2 absolutely TINY hairline type marks, and only a few of the lightest paper scuffs only visible under light!!!!  THE RECORD STILL RETAINS ITS ORIGINAL 'JUST PRESSED' LOOK!!!! It is great to find that the playing of the record is as STUNNING as the visual!!!!  It plays with barely ANY clicks/pops AT ALL, only a VERY few VERY short lived clicks from each of the TINY hairline type marks, NO sticking, NO jumps, barely ANY crackle, and only some low level background sound on the run on grooves and occassional gap!!!!  The sound quality is simply AWESOME with NO distortion and NO groovewear either!!!!  The record must grade Very Good+!!!! Believe me this record is NOT overgraded in ANY way!!!! I use STRICT RC grading standards - it is not in my interest not to!!!! Brillant!!!!  The record also comes in its ORIGINAL 1st Press inner sleeve!!!!  The 1st Press Laminated Cover is in GREAT condition!!!! It has NO edge wear (apart from some slight roughening to the bottom edge - NOT through the colour), NO spinal wear, only slight corner wear (NOT through the colour), only a few light creases, shiny laminate, and NO writing!!!!  The opening edge is beautifully straight with NO feathering!!!! Even the unlaminated back is in BRILLIANT condition with NO writing, NO grubbyness, NO yellowing, and only some EXTREMELY light rubbing towards the top. The Cover must grade Very Good (maybe+) (PROPERLY graded, NOT trashed) if not better - with only the few creases stopping a higher grading.  DONT UNDER ESTIMATE THE SERIOUS RARITY OF THIS LP IN MONO!!!!  MONO 1ST PRESSINGS OF THIS LP VIRTUALLY NEVER TURN UP FOR SALE AND THIS LP IS WITHOUT ANY DOUBT ONE OF THE RAREST LPS TO FIND IN MONO ON THE ATLANTIC LABEL!!!!  SO  DONT MISS OUT ON THIS MEGA RARE OPPORTUNITY!!!!
