                  LISTEN TO THE SAMPLES BELOW !!!!

VINYL...Play-tested 3 times....A-side grades VERY GOOD for playability and condition. Still has a relatively healthy surface  appearance considering usage and plays well.     A-side has light surface scratches & faint grazes. There is some moderate run-in surface noise at the start which fairly quickly disappears (hear the sample). Some mild noises on run-off but they are minor. 

B-side is GOOD+ with visually more surface rubs and tiny scratches but it is mostly superficial. The rubbing resembles that caused by the disc surface rubbing against another disc leaving 'bruising' or 'snail trail' effect. It plays well with the first 20 or so seconds having more surfaces noises than the A-side equivalent (hear the sample) but it improves with just a few other sporadic noises noted and in fade-out.    A & B-side labels have a name written in biro. Centrepiece still all intact. Comes in a Brunswick sleeve (VG+).
