Matrix / Runout (Variant 1 - Side A): SHVL 814 A-1 Matrix / Runout (Variant 1 - Side B): SHVL 814 B-3
It plays through with no skips, some occasional pop and crackle in the quiet sections - the build up at the start is very quiet compared to lots I have hear, and when it gets going it is a very good listen.
The sleeve has ORIGINAL BLACK SHRINK WRAP , with shaking hands logo, still covering it and original price sticker a few light marks,in great condition as a result , no rips or large stains/handling marks
The 3 corner cut inner with lyrics is intact, except for a split along bottom edge , quite clean, a few of little marks
Labels and vinyl show small signs of past use, no major marks, a few light wispy hairlines, and there a few light pops here and there as a result. Both sides play through without any skips or sticks and it is a very pleasant listen overall - there were 3/4 light clicks on SOYCD side one. The rest SUPERB!
HAS POSTCARD WHICH IS RARE; OFTEN MISSING , WHICH IS IN EXCELLENT SHAPE...
