All records are graded according the UK Record Collector grading system 2008 with +/- indicating the higher or lower end of the grade.

Cover;         Ex/Ex+

Full, vibrant colours. No stains, writing, tears. There is a 2 cm seam split that has been coloured in at some point (not by me) on the top edge that is very difficult to see but nevertheless there (please see photograph). Lovely square spine with titles that are fully legible. Bit of rubbing to spine top and small dink to bottom. Inside GF in beautiful condition. This would be an easy NM without the split.

Vinyl;          NM (visual)  

No warps, scratches, marks. Some unavoidable handling marks can only be seen when held to the light. Beautiful sheen. A lovely example.

M- (audio)       

Clearly not been played much. Plays through very cleanly with no loud pops, crackles etc. Perhaps a little background static during the quieter passages but nothing at all obtrusive and definitely does not interfere with the musical presentation.

Labels;        M- both nice and clean.

Inner;           NM original swirl inner (not to this album in my opinion though) in nice clean condition. Just some unavoidable ageing-related colouring around the edges.

Other info;

Recorded live in Holland this features music from their back catalogue and dialogue from the band members between songs. Both band and audience appear very well behaved. Less well produced than ‘Seasons’ this still possesses excellent dynamics through the top and bottom ends. Either the time or the music but not like any concerts I’ve been to lately! This is not a rare record by definition and is not impossible to locate. However, in this condition it is not so easy to find. Only pressed with the smaller swirl on side B this is a 1st press and stampers are very early. (1Y//1 matrices do not always denote a 1st press like many sellers seem to claim!).

Terms and conditions –PLEASE READ CAREFULLY

Payment to be made within 48 hours of auction end. I only accept payment by Paypal - no surcharges apply to these payments.

Record will be removed from original inner and placed inside separate inner and packaged outside of sleeve to prevent knifing in transit. I sometimes reuse cruciform boxes etc and stiffeners/bubblewrap for P & P purposes. As a buyer of vinyl myself (see my feedback) you can rest assured that records will be very well packaged to make sure the item reaches you in the condition it leaves me. I take lots of extra photos for full peace of mind for both parties and want you to be as happy with the item as I have been. This will be a heavy item and expensive to post from Denmark when boxed for packing.
