RECORD CONDITION:
BOTH SIDES CAN ONLY BE DESCRIBED AS CLOSE TO MINT WITH JUST ONE VERY SMALL, ULTRA FAINT SURFACE TRACE ON EITHER SIDE. ABSOLUTELY NO OTHER MARKS OF ANY DESCRIPTION ON THE VINYL WHATSOEVER. EVEN IN BRIGHT SUNLIGHT THERE IS NOTHING TO BE SEEN EXCEPT THE ODD TINY SLEEVE REMOVAL LINE. IT'S QUITE OBVIOUS THAT THIS RECORD HAS ONLY HAD VERY LIGHT USE. A SUPERB COPY. YOU WILL STRUGGLE TO FIND A BETTER COPY THAN THIS ONE.
BOTH LABELS ARE EXCELLENT WITH JUST A COUPLE OF FAINT SPINDLE TRACES ON EITHER SIDE. ORIGINAL 1st PRESS PLUM LABELS. IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND LIKE THIS.
PLAYBACK IS SUPERB AS YOU WOULD EXPECT. NO BACKGROUND NOISE, NO NOISE BETWEEN TRACKS, MAYBE JUST THE VERY OCCASIONAL TINY STATIC TYPE TICK. PLAYS LIKE IT WAS BOUGHT YESTERDAY.
OLD 1960s LPs HARDLY EVER COME ALONG IN THIS KIND OF CONDITION. YOU WILL STRUGGLE TO FIND A BETTER COPY OF THIS LP ANYWHERE.
POSTAGE WILL BE 24 HOUR TRACKED
