Condition of disc: VF/EX [conservatively, Very Fine Plus is our official condition call here, but we had to check the box for EX because it is so much better than VG+, and VF is not on the list!] - Both labels are quite clean and with no particularly evident spindle marks near the hole, [but it's harder to tell on a white label]. Vinyl is also very clean and without more than three visible scratches, or marks or detractions, as follows - On the first side is a couple of very small feelers visible near the beginning of A4, but they only produce a few ticks, and the side concludes just fine.  The other visibly questionable area is a circular scratch positioned about half-way through track B4, and it also ticks slightly a few times. Most of the rest of the album is nicely clear and the sound has great presence, [thanks to RVG]. Check out the samples!  BTW, we do not attempt any cleaning to any of our sale records. The ultimate owner will have their special way of doing things.
Condition of cover: VG+ without tape, but a few small scattered areas of front cover wear, general edge wear taking chips off of the paint, heavy wear at bottom edge with a small split there approx 2"+/- at center, some handling, age, wear and use, small spots on front, some age and scuffs to the back paste-down.  I'm being picky, for your sake, so your decision can be informed. The disc comes with a new generic white paper inner sleeve, but we do not put the disc back into the jacket.
Samples are difficult for LPs [since there is so much vinyl territory from which to select], but we are just doing one from the first cut on each side, in order to present a general example of the sound.

The samples are from the actual record in the listing.
