CONDITION
RECORD EX I have played the record from beginning to end. Bright shiny heavy vinyl which plays beautifully. Just occasional light crackle but a wonderful listen with fabulous musical quality.
COVER VG- Please see images. Some creases to front; a minor tear next to the spine (both sides); stubbing to corners, notably bottom right front/bottom left rear. Rear of album is discoloured; some disc wear to cover.
LABELS EX- A few spindle marks but not excessive
Generic white inner sleeve
I use Record Collector gradings
