Play Tested? Yes

The Vinyl: 

Appearance: EX Full original deep black gloss. No spindle marks. Labels are glossy and like new. Under very strong light there is a hint of faint sleeve rub/hairlines. Overall probably one of the best you are likely to find.

Full Sound Test: VG++ The album plays very well through both sides with no skips or evidence of scratch noise. There is a little soft rustle which is mainly evident in run ins and quieter sections. Not at all obtrusive, in our opinion. The recording is exceptional with vocals and instruments at times literally jumping out of the speakers with a very generous image and soundstage. Overall, this is a well looked after LP which is a thoroughly enjoyable listen from end to end.

The Cover/packaging: VG++ - A very well looked after copy. Fresh, flat and just a hint of corner scuffing and edge rub. Inner gatefolds slightly rubbed mainly along top edge as seen in the photos. In all a lovely example of this rare album. The original paper inner is quite ruffled but no writing or rips/tears.

Grading & Valuation

Our Grading Guarantee explained:

We Grade your record carefully following the Record Collector Guide using many years of experience. However, grading is ultimately subjective and despite being very strict, we may not always please everyone. Please do not leave negative feedback if you are not fully satisfied. We offer a full No Quibble Return, Swap or Refund and we are here to help.

In order to assist everyone who buys and sells rare discs, Record Collector magazine has originated a set of standards for the condition of second-hand records, cassettes and CDs. Anyone buying or selling records through the magazine must use our conditions to state what amount of wear and tear the disc, its sleeve and/or contents have been subject to. The seven standard condition categories, and a description of what each one means, are listed below:

MINT (M) : The record itself is in brand new condition with no surface marks or deterioration in sound quality. The cover and any extra items such as the lyric sheet, booklet or poster are in perfect condition. Records advertised as Sealed or Unplayed should be Mint.

EXCELLENT (EX): The record shows some signs of having been played, but there is very little lessening in sound quality. The cover and packaging might have slight wear and/or creasing.

VERY GOOD (VG): The record has obviously been played many times, but displays no major deterioration in sound quality, despite noticeable surface marks and the occasional light scratch. Normal wear and tear on the cover or extra items, without any major defects, is acceptable.

GOOD (G): The record has been played so much that the sound quality has noticeably deteriorated, perhaps with some distortion and mild scratches. The cover and contents suffer from folding, scuffing of edges, spine splits, discoloration, etc.

FAIR (F): The record is still just playable but has not been cared for properly and displays considerable surface noise; it may even jump. The cover and contents will be torn, stained and/or defaced.

POOR (P): The record will not play properly due to scratches, bad surface noise, etc. The cover and contents will be badly damaged or partly missing.

BAD (B): The record is unplayable or might even be broken, and is only of use as a collection-filler.
