Condition and details for this copy below:
The Sleeve FAIR : The sleeve Is a bit battered but still nice and bright colours on the front pic., edges have splits and wear ... The cover is a bit floppy. See photos
Inner Sleeve VG+: - Original 'use emitex' has some creases, light discolouration but in VG+ condition.
Labels: VG Wear around the centre hole, no writing , a few light marks hardly noticeable - see close up photos
Vinyl - G Visually just Light scuffs and hairlines scratches visible, no deep scratches, nothing feelable. Read playback below.
Playback- G This album has obviously had many plays. There are some light sizzly/fuzzy sounds present on the left channel which maybe the start of some groove wear . It is more noticeable through my sensitive headphones rather than my linn speakers. The music is still enjoyable and it plays through fine without any sticks or skips and very little crackle.
With the extra 33⅓ on the labels -this is probably the rarest edition of this album.
Discogs blurb starts with :"This version is the rare third Mono pressing with the small 33⅓ at 9 o'clock on the labels."
