Description

I have been collecting LPs since 1980. I grade very conservatively. If you are unhappy with how an LP is graded please return it for a refund.
Please check my seller feedback for verification. 

Gradings:

Note: I don't use the grade EX, if it's not M-, it's VG++.

Sleeve Grades:
VG++ (Overall looks great. Please refer to the images for a clear view of the minor age browning to the top and a light brown ageing patch in the centre of the front. Slight ring wear from storage to the rear and some age browning).
Sleeve is signed on the rear by Gifford Rolfe and Andrew Mullins.

Vinyl Grades:
M- looks perfect! Visually and aurally this is a really lovely copy, it has hardly been played.
It is going to be hard work to find one in better condition.
I have play graded the LP and it plays only with one or two light  'pops', exactly what you would expect from a private pressing.

Labels Grade:
M- perfect (please refer to images).


Postage and packing:

Please click the Postage and payments tab, then select your Country from the list and click the Get Rates button. I post worldwide.
I separate the LP from the sleeve (to avoid seam damage) and use a sturdy custom mailer. 

Music:

*Killer* acid folk LP - really deep, introspective vibes and superb playing. A few tracks feature fuzz, notably, 'Legend' that kicks off Side 2. 
A missing piece in the puzzle of the Holyground label private pressings. Definitely, to my ears, in the same league as Astral Navigations and A-Austr.
I am going to regret selling this, but it will fund other vinyl projects.
