The Record
The vinyl itself is in SUPERB condition, it is bright and shiny with virtually NO groove wear (this is common on most albums of the era, caused by the big heavy needles of the 60's and 70's). It does not skip or jump at all and just has a few ticks here and some very faint spider webs, and waxy superficial surface scuffs. It has NO Heavy scratches, and is one of the best copies of this LP we have seen here in a long time!!!! The centre labels are superb with no tears or marks and just a few spindle lines. This vinyl plays like a dream and easily play grades as EX!!!!!!!!! It looks stunning and visually grades as VG+ at the very least!!!!
