Description
Please.....before you consider buying this, please read my description :-)
The LP has been play-graded, cleaned on my RCM before hand.
From my own collection, played and enjoyed by myself.
The Gatefold Lyric Inner is in GOOD+ condition, very clean BUT has tape to the fold, a seam split and a 1cm rip to the front ( please see pics ).
The Flipback sleeve is GOOD only, with wear all round, some heavy scratches and paper peel to the rear ( again please see pics ). The vinyl has a nice sheen, but a lot of light surface marks, it's obviously been played many times, but looked after pretty well. Looks VERY GOOD.
Overall the album plays well. No sticking or jumping, plays through fine in that respect. There is, as you would expect from the visual, some light background.
The main detractors are these:
Side 1: Sailors Tale intro 2 pops with one pop on outro. The Letters has some light clicks and a pop on the outro. Side 2: Prelude has a series of clicks throughout the track, 3 clicks then 4 then further 2. Islands has a run of 3 "double clicks".
So, please be aware this is not in a mint or even excellent condition, neither is it just a filler either however.
I take pride in what I sell, and pleasure from the recipient being happy with their purchase - if you have any problem with my description upon receipt, please just return it for a refund ! :-)
The album will be carefully and very well packed, posted any which way I can, asap.
Thanks for looking.
