THE VINYL   MINT-  SUPERB CONDITION

As you can see, this vinyl is the 1st /1 /1 SPIRAL pressing -Stored from new this LP has seen possibly a couple of careful plays only, and remains in pristine condition everywhere.

THE VINYL REALLY IS LIKE NEW..AND HAS BEEN STORED SINCE 1970 -!!!!!

This first pressing is a superb vinyl which has retained its amazing glossy sheen and finish. There is no 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.

No visible spider lines around the centre & no wear to the spindle hole whatsoever.

SURPLUS WAX AROUND THE CENTRE HOLE

There is barely a hint of any whisp lines - and thats it-  nothing else!  Clearly this LP has been archived for many many years..IT REMAINS IN ASTONISHING CONDITION.

ON LISTENING THROUGH IT SOUNDED SUPERB WITH JUST THE FEINTEST LEAD IN STATIC -

 The whole LP is simply incredible..as good a copy of 'Rising' as we have ever had- and check the sleeve.....!!

IT IS A SUPERB EXAMPLE, AND AS GOOD AS WE HAVE AUCTIONED.
