An overall lovely copy of this 1970 UK 1st press folk/rock rarity.  Very good plus (VG+) condition weighty and completely flat glossy vinyl still retaining a nice jet black sheen with a few light hairlines and very light, small scuff marks on each side, only really in evidence with close scrutiny under a bright light and with all being non-feelable and appearing to be superficial only (though there is a slightly more obvious 1cm surface scuff line traversing A1 and a 5cm hairline on side 1 - both non-feelable but each just about visible in normal daylight);  excellent (EX) condition labels with just a couple very light, small and barely detectable spindle trails on each label;  very good plus (VG+) condition non-laminated original outer sleeve with firm edges and just a few sporadic light scuff marks on each, well defined right angled corners still with minimal rubbing on each, firm opening edges with no fraying, and a few very light handling/shelf wear surface marks. Overall excellent (EX) STEREO sound quality with no skips, repeats, jumps or interference, and background crackle is at a minimum - just the hint of some very minor crackle during the first track on side 1 and during a couple of the quieter moments/intermissions, but all very minor and not impinging upon the overall impressive sound tone and clarity, with every track a great listen. 

Comes complete with excellent (EX) condition original CBS advertising inner sleeve with no edge splits or creasing, some very minor age discolouration and remaining fully functional.

A nice condition and highly collectible copy of this underrated and "under the radar" (when first released some 50 years ago) 1st press folk/rock gem - rare and now highly sought after.

I do provide posting and packaging discounts for multiple purchases. I make no profit from postage.

Note that I always insert the vinyl into a new plain white poly-lined inner sleeve in order to protect the original during postage, and separate this from the outer sleeve to prevent seam splits. I use thick cardboard stiffeners and take great care in my packaging to ensure as far as possible that these precious records reach their destination in exactly the same condition as when they leave me.

 If you require any further information, including photos, then let me know and I'll do my best to oblige.

A bit about myself : I have been collecting UK vinyl for over 54 years from a variety of sources : my own collection, friends and family, car boot and garage sales, door-to-door leaflets, and even through placing an advert in my wife's shop window! My ebay feedback speaks for itself so rest assured that you are buying from a trusted seller and in the very unlikely event that you are unhappy with your purchase just e-mail me and I will sort out the problem. I offer a "no questions asked" refund policy. If you require any further information, including photos, then let me know and I'll do my best to oblige. There is NO RESERVE on this item. Richard
