STONES  "ALL TIME CLASSIC" ALBUM. 1969 UK ROLLING STONES BLUE DECCA LABEL, Matrix Side 1 :- XZAL 9363-P-2W, Side 2 :- XZAL 6274-6W.  RECORDS" Scratched into the run-out.

COVER:- VERY GOOD+.... Most would say better please look at the pictures, and read the description. 

VINYL:-  EXCELLENT.... 

INNER SLEEVE :-  ORIGINAL ALSO EXCELLENT.

This is the STONES eighth Studio Album.... The Rolling Stones......This STEREO Original 1969  Press is now so Rare, Making this one of the rarest Rolling Stones albums of all time due to the flip back sleeve. Not forgetting in 1969 most people didn't have good Stereo equipment so most records were ruined by being played on dancette type of gramophone. With heavy playing arms that often damaged the vinyl. A true ROLLING STONES Classic!  You would be hard pushed to see a better vinyl records they look hardly played. I don't need to tell you how many Lp's got scratched and ruined by heavy weighted arms and metal needles.  This is the SUPERIOR 1st PRESS version... So hard to find in any playable condition, as they have been squirreled away in collections or worse thrown away, Nearly all copies that turn up have terribly worn Covers, mostly with the owners name written on them. I believe that there are very few better Condition Stones albums, you would be hard pushed to find better.   

The sleeve is laminated to the front not on the back, NO WRITING OR MARKS. Mega Rare true stones classic.

RECORD LABEL:-   DECCA Records

YEAR OF ORIGINAL RELEASE/ COUNTRY OF MANUFACTURE:-  1969 UK

MODE/SPEED:  stereo - 33RPM

VINYL VISUAL:  EXCELLENT : - The Records very few plays, background crackle, more noticeable on the quite tracks,  No Marks, No Deep Scratches, The vinyl is bright and has a shine No Major damage. 

SLEEVE:   VERY GOOD + Look at the photo's... The wonderful original 1st press sleeve is clean, except for the top corner which has a corner bump! The laminated cover is remarkable consider it's age, It has the see through hole on the back plate, With a few very small creases in the laminated front cover most there from new. Please look at the photos the cover is prone to wear due to the it's age. The  back cover has no handling aging, blemishes, and a Perfect Spine. A Sharp opening edge, please  (see photo's) still the back somehow it has survived without picking up much staining, so prone on 60's backs. No so rare in this condition as they were not cheap at the time at over a pound and  the average wage being £35 at the time. Most copies were played to death. This Sleeve is in amazing condition.

INNER SLEEVE:  EXCELLENT. Original Unique "Let It Bleed" blue poly lined Decca paper type, ... No tear through, writing, or damage, being the very fragile inner sleeves are a great indicator of the amount of usage the album has had. I would say the inner is the best you could find! and considering how fragile these are.....it's now 49 years old, quite unbelievable intact condition.  

LABELS:  Clean, very light spindle marks, label stain on side 1, no damage or writing    

GRADING SYSTEM: 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, I have added a (+) or (-) to my gradings where applicable.

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