****************************************************************

This is an original 1st pressing bought in the UK at the time of first release. It is not a reissue. It has the original grey and white labels, die-cut card inner sleeves and heavy clothbound outer with the original ribbon. The matrixes are A1/B1/C1/D1 and the runouts are etched EG and stamped TOWNHOUSE with 'The chicken won't stop', 'The chicken stops here' and chicken feet etched in the run-out grooves.

The vinyl is graded as Excellent (Ex) apart from side two which has a couple of surface marks and is graded as VG+ to Ex-

The sleeve. outer cover and inner sleeves have no seam splits, tears, writing, stickers etc, and are clean with just some minor signs of age or use. The ribbon is original but is a little worn.

Detracting features not covered above:  None.

All photographs are of the actual item for sale. Please look at the photos and ask any questions before you bid or buy.

Where gradings are given these are based on the UK Record Collector grading system (see below) and are visual gradings only, unless the listing specifically states that it is a play-grading.

I use the UK RECORD COLLECTOR GRADING SYSTEM. This grading system differs from some other grading systems, in particular the Goldmine grading system. Please make sure that you are familiar with the UK record collector grading system before you bid.

Mint: The record itself is in brand new condition with no surface marks or deterioration in sound quality. The cover and any extra items such as the lyric sheet, booklet or poster are in perfect condition. Records advertised as Sealed or Unplayed should be Mint.

Excellent: The record shows some signs of having been played, but there is very little lessening in sound quality. The cover and packag­ing might have slight wear and/or creasing.

Very Good: The record has obviously been played many times, but displays no major deterioration in sound quality, despite noticeable sur­face marks and the occasional light scratch. Normal wear and tear on the cover or extra items, without any major defects, is acceptable.

Good: The record has been played so much that the sound quality has noticeably deteriorated, perhaps with some distortion and mild scratches. The cover and contents suffer from folding, scuffing of edges, spine splits, discoloration, etc.

Fair: The record is still just playable but has not been cared for prop­erly and displays considerable surface noise; it may even jump. The cover and contents will be torn, stained and/or defaced.

Poor: The record will not play properly due to scratches, bad surface noise, etc. The cover and contents will be badly damaged or partly missing.

Bad: The record is unplayable or might even be broken, and is only of use as a collection-filler.

Plus (+) or Minus (-) are added where items fall between gradings. I only ever use one plus or minus.
