ORIGINAL '1170' INNER AND THE VERY LIGHT BROWN COVER .

THAT'S THE GOOD NEWS; THE NOT SO GOOD NEWS IS IT HAS FIVE TINY SKIPS. IT IS ONLY BECAUSE IT IS THE  ICONIC WRECK VERSION THAT I HAVE LISTED IT. I HAVE GIVEN A VERY DETAILED AUDIO PLAYBACK DESCRIPTION SO IF YOU ARE STILL INTERESTED PLEASE READ ON.

COVER :: THIS IS THE VERY LIGHTEST BROWN 1ST PRESS GATEFOLD PRINTED AND MADE BY E. J. DAY & Co, LONDON W11 :: FRONT HAS SOME HANDLING MARKS :: THE SPINE IS SOLID AND FULLY READABLE BUT HAS A BIT OF SHELF WEAR :: TOP AND BOTTOM EDGES ARE SOLID BUT ALSO HAVE SHELF WEAR; BUT THIS DOES NOT EFFECT FRONT AND REAR FACES :: OPENING EDGE STILL QUITE SHARP :: INSIDE GATEFOLD REALLY NICE :: BACK HAS SOME RING WEAR JUST LIKE MOST OF THESE COVERS :: EACH CORNER HAS A RUB, AND A BIT MORE OF A RUB ON THE SPINE CORNERS :: THERE ARE NO SPLITS, WRITING, STICKERS, DENTS, HOLES ETC, SO OVER ALL GRADE :: VG.

((((((((PLEASE SEE PHOTOS FOR VISUAL DESCRIPTION))))))))

VINYL :: THERE ARE QUITE A FEW HAIRLINES, SLEEVE REMOVAL MARKS SEEN UNDER BRIGHT LIGHT AND A LIGHT SLIGHTLY FEELABLE SCRATCH ON TRACK 1, SIDE 1 ; AND A VERY TINY VERY SLIGHTLY FEELABLE MARK IN THE MIDDLE OF TRACK 2; SO VISUALLY UNDER LIGHT :: VG.

I WILL LET YOU GRADE THE AUDIO, BECAUSE THIS IS A DIFFICULT ONE TO CALL.

HERE GOES!!!!!!

SIDE 1 :: TRACK 1 : JUST AFTER THE START THERE ARE A COUPLE OF SOFT TICKS FOLLOWED BY A TINY SKIP THEN A COUPLE MORE SOFT TICKS. THERE IS ANOTHER TINY SKIP JUST BEFORE DRUM SOLO, AND ANOTHER SMALL SKIP AT THE END OF THE DRUM SOLO. THERE ARE A COUPLE OF SOFT TICKS TOWARDS THE END.

TRACK 2 : HAS A BIT OF SOFT CRACKLE AT THE START. THERE IS ANOTHER SMALL SKIP IN THE MIDDLE FOLLOWED BY THREE TICKS. IN BETWEEN THIS TRACK AND TRACK 3 THERE ARE A FEW SOFT TICKS.

TRACK 3 : PLAYS OK .

TRACK 4 : HAS A COUPLE OF VERY SOFT POPS TOWARDS THE END .

SIDE 2 :: TRACK 1 : HAS A BIT OF SOFT POP AND CRACKLE THEN THE FINAL SMALL SKIP IN THE MIDDLE OF THIS TRACK .

TRACK 2 : PLAYS OK . BUT HAS A BIT OF CRACKLE IN BETWEEN TRACKS

TRACK 3 :  PLAYS OK .

TRACK 4 : 'MOBY DICK' HAS SOME SOFT TICKS FOLLOWED BY A QUICK 'SHSUSH' NOISE AT THE START OF THE DRUM SOLO. THEN OK.

TRACK 5 : PLAYS FINE .

I MAY HAVE MISSED A SOFT TICK OR SOFT POP, BUT I HAVE BEEN AS HONEST AS I  POSSIBLY CAN. PLEASE JUDGE FOR YOURSELF THE AUDIO GRADE, AS YOU CAN SEE IT IS A HARD ONE TO CALL.

LABELS :: SPOTLESS WITH ONLY SOME SPINDLE LINES SEEN UNDER LIGHT AND ALSO 'LIVIN LOVIN WRECK' ON SIDE 2 :: EX/EX+ .

ORIGINAL POLYLINED INNER :: 'PLASTIC BAGS CAN BE DANGEROUS' AND 'MADE IN ENGLAND 45  1170' :: NO SPLITS JUST SOME NUMBERS WRITTEN IN TOP LEFT CORNER AND A BIT OF BROWNING ALONG THE TOP :: VG+/EX- .

APART FROM THE TURQUOISE ZEP 1, THIS MUST BE THE SECOND MOST COLLECTABLE ZEP ORIGINAL ALBUM EVER. THE AUDIO IS WHAT IT IS, AND WILL NOT GET ANY BETTER EVEN IF THE POST FAIRIES GET THEIR HANDS ON IT. BUT IT IS STLL A WRECK!!!!! THANKYOU AS ALWAYS FOR YOUR TIME.
