THE VINYL   MINT-    INCREDIBLE  CONDITION

As you can see, this vinyl is the  ORIGINAL 1974 PRESSING - Stored from new this LP remains in pristine  condition.

ARCHIVED FROM NEW WITH BARELY ANY PLAY AT ALL-QUITE HOW AMAZING HOW A VINYL LIKE THIS HAS REMAINED WITH SUCH LITTLE PLAY..A BEAUTY!

This 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 vinyl gleams in stunning fashion!

There are a few light whisp lines, and a couple of little hairlines that do not sound -and thats it-  nothing else!  Clearly this LP has been archived for many many years, a few little dust specs are on the vinyl when we slid out the vinyl.

a couple of tiny spider lines around the centre hole-

IT REMAINS IN SUPERB PLAY CONDITION. There is some dust on the vinyl where it has stood for so long untouched!

On playing through we heard nothing in the dead grooves bar the tiniest of static in the dead grooves...the odd dust pop that probably will not sound next time.. and the odd little static crackle which could benefit froma  hoover cleaner.

OVERALL THIS IS SIMPLY A MUST FOR ANY FINAL UPGRADE COLLECTION. YOU WILL NOT SEE BETTER.

THE LABELS   MINT  FLAT MATT LABELS

THE SLEEVE     MINT-  WOW!!!!!!! 

UK issued earliest MATT TEXTURED   GATEFOLD  sleeve  -with the DOUBLE WIDE spine.

ARCHIVED AWAY FROM NEW SINCE 1974 IT IS QUITE SPECIAL.

 This is in superb condition, quite amazing how it has survived so clean.. Most copies we see have bad white rubbing on the edges..The  ink being a terror to keep unscuffed..but not this one

THE  INKS ARE MAGNIFICENT..
