Labels

Excellent++ No damage at all ! Beautifully maintained, with no rips. No tears. No graffiti. No crusting. No mottling. An extremely light spindle trace ONLY observed on all four sides ! Absolutely amazing ! Hardly played ! So rare in this incredible condition.

(((Audio))) Phenomenal delivery !

One of the best I have heard from this Stones monster classic. Tones are very sharp and concise. The loud cut delivery projects magnificently, to convey a wonderful array of tones and the bass frequency is so vibrant, it is unbelievable! Instrumentation is a delight, with the percussion beat delivered with exquisite, mellow tones, especially on Shine A Light ! With only a handful of plays, an exceptional audio, with very little to fault. Clear channels for most of play, and will find very difficult to match . Remarkable and extremely scarce in this lightly played condition . At least an excellent aural delivery ! Phenomenal audio with that EXTRA LOUD CUT that only these very first pressings can project ! Absolutely magnificent .

Vinyls

Mirror like appearance and a pleasure to view! Thick cut, heavyweight feel ! Excellent +++ visual and appears unmarked on first inspection. If angled 45 degrees, you may observe several extremely faint surface marks visible , on a couple of the sides, where outer sleeves have brushed the surface . STUNNING visual ! Any surface marks are quite difficult to observe, as they tend to disappear beneath the high gloss of the vinyls .One of the best examples of this historic Stones’ classic!

What a sensational album release !

Plain, white inner sleeves,(normally found missing) which are the genuine originals ,with PATENT NUMBERS in blue text , are placed within the thicker outer coloured picture sleeves.. They have been neatly inserted into each picture sleeve and they appear to be in really good condition.

Complete set of 12 post cards – all 12 are found in concertina format .They feel and look as fresh as the day they were printed and are in excellent condition. They have a smooth finish and are the genuine 1st issue postcard set ,only found with these very earliest 1st pressings of this monumental Stones classic!
