The record has been heat damaged and has warped. This is most pronounced on the first tracks of both sides. The quiet start of side 1 has a phantom “heartbeat” for the first couple of minutes where the warping is at its worst. On track one of side 2 I found that sometimes it jumped a little, again where the warping is at its worst, sometimes it did not! The record has plenty of scratches and scuffs but it plays with only some “crackles” especially noticeable on the quiet parts mainly between the tracks. There are no other sticks or jumps apart from the one mentioned on track one side 2. It would probably benefit from a thorough clean.
The centre labels have a few shallow scratches and some spindle hole wear – see pictures. Note KT embossed on the centre of side 1.
The laminated cover has a fair bit of edge and corner bumping – see pictures. There are also quite a few creases on the front lamination, a few small marks and a little of the record outline. The front is not completely flat – it has some undulations – I would guess caused by tension between the lamination and the cardboard sleeve. The rear has a few creases, some discolouration and some record outlining - see picture. It is not completely flat either
The white inner sleeve has some discolouration, creases and a small split to one side – unsure if original.
I am currently listing other LPs from the 1960s, 1970s & 1980s
PLEASE NOTE there are extremely long postal delays to Russia at present – thought to be due to customs
