Because of the high degree of interest in this record, I have replayed it and offer a detailed description: The light scratches I mention do not affect play except for about a minute of extremely (really) light ticks at the beginning of side 1. One has to pay attention to hear them. Other than that, there are two instances of a a group of similarly light ticks on S1, just 3 ticks at a time. Side 2 plays with no problems except for 8 ticks in the very last band.
