All This Crazy Gift Of Time
LABELS: NEAR MINT
An immaculate set of labels - clean and unmarked with just one or two light spindle traces
VINYL Visual: NEAR MINT
Both surfaces shine like new
VINYL Audio: EXCELLENT
Plays beautifully throughout with little to fault - some light ticks/touches of surface - nothing really - in my experience impossible to find playing with pristine sound - I simply do not think they exist - this copy is one of the earliest pressed, barely played and carefully stored - they really don't come much better - I certainly haven't heard one - great copy
SLEEVE: EXCELLENT
Apart from some shop creases/top rub to the wide spine the gatefold is crisp, clean, sharp with a deep gloss to the laminated surfaces
