THE VINYL   EX+  INCREDIBLE  CONDITION

As you can see, this vinyl is the  EARLY TRANSITION MATRIX  pressing- We believe after the initial transition run from the switch from 'Plum to Green labels'  they all had the K prefix only and a thinner glossier sleeve

 Stored from new this LP has seen VERY LOW plays only, and remains in pristine play condition everywhere.

THIS IS  A BEAUTY!

This  pressing is a superb vinyl which has retained its amazing glossy sheen and finish. There is little dulling anywhere and overall it is in incredible condition for an LP of this age. The edges are silky smooth, typical of these vintage pressings. We are seing fewer and fewer copies of this LP, so rarely do we see a copy at all, let alone like this.

A few spider lines around the centre hole, and no wear to the spindle hole whatsoever. Such obvious low play for this classic vinyl.

There are just a few fine whisp lines, and a couple of tiny feint hairlines and thats it-  nothing else!  Clearly this LP has been archived for many many years, a few little dust specs are on the vinyl when we slid it for checking..

IT REMAINS IN ASTONISHING CONDITION.

On playing through we heard nothing bar the tiniest of lead in static in the dead grooves..it sounds amazing with no hiss or pops or unwanted noises.. we have not hard a copy play this clean for years in fact!!!

OVERALL THIS IS SIMPLY A MUST FOR ANY FINAL UPGRADE COLLECTION. YOU WILL NOT SEE BETTER.

The open edge remains in nice sharp condition -just the tiny tip rub either end- and the lightest feathring, overall tho superb.
