NOT ONLY THAT BUT THIS LP IS IN GREAT CONDITION OVERALL (THOUGH NOT PERFECT!) - AND CLEARLY HASNT BEEN PLAYED MUCH AT ALL!!!!  JUST TAKE A LOOK AT THE PICTURES!!!!  THIS IS THE ORIGINAL 1971 UK VERTIGO 1ST PRESSING ON THE 1ST PRESS 'LARGE' VERTIGO 'SPIRAL' LABEL, AND 1ST PRESS GATEFOLD COVER!!!!  THIS LP IS SERIOUSLY RARE AND VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO LOCATE - SO DONT MISS OUT ON THIS AMAZING OPPORTUNITY!!!!  This is the ORIGINAL Vertigo UK 1st Pressing from 1971 and is in GREAT condition overall!!!!  The record is pressed on THICK quality vinyl.  The Cat. No is 6360 028 on the ORIGINAL 1st Press 'Large' Vertigo 'Spiral' Label (see picture) and is a UK Stereo 1st Pressing (there were NO Monos)!!!! 

The record labels are in SUPERB condition (see pictures) with NO wear, NO writing, and only a few VERY light spindle marks!!!!  IT IS VERY CLEAR THAT THIS RECORD HASNT BEEN PLAYED THAT MUCH AT ALL!!!!  The vinyl is in GREAT condition overall!!!!  Most of these 60s/70s LPs had been to a lot of wild parties and are usually found totally worn out, and almost unplayable. This one is NOT and at first glance looks VERY nice indeed!!!!  However, under light you can see 2 or 3 TINY surface marks, 2 or 3 light scufflines, only a few VERY light hairlines, and only a VERY few of the lightest paper scuffs only visible under light!!!!  THE RECORD STILL RETAINS ITS ORIGINAL JUST PRESSED LOOK!!!!  And whilst the record does play with NO nasty loud pops, only a few VERY light clicks, NO sticking, NO jumps, and barely ANY crackle AT ALL - it does strangely play with some audible background, though I no idea why?  The sound quality is simply SUPERB with NO distortion and NO groovewear either!!!!  The record must MEGA STRICTLY grade Good (PROPERLY graded, NOT trashed!) if not better - though most would grade FAR higher still!!!!  Believe me this record is NOT overgraded in ANY way!!!!  I use STRICT RC grading standards - it is not in my interest not to!!!! Brillant!!!!  The record comes in an ORIGINAL plain inner sleeve which is in BRILLIANT condition!!!!  The ORIGINAL 1st Press Gatefold Cover is in BRILLIANT condition!!!!  The cover has NO rips, NO tears, only some VERY slight 'touching in' traces to the VERY edges, NO sticker residue marks, NO splits, NO spinal wear (apart from the odd VERY isolated 'touching in' trace), only VERY slight corner wear (NOT through the colour!), only a VERY few light creases (cover is VERY flat looking!), barely ANY rubbing AT ALL to the cover front, only some VERY slight rubbing to the cover back (way WAY better than most!), only 1 VERY small area of 'touched in' wear to one corner (this is VERY hard to spot!), and NO writing!!!!  The opening edge is beautifully straight with barely ANY feathering AT ALL!!!!  Even the inside of the cover is in BRILLIANT condition with NO yellowing, NO grubbyness, NO ringwear, only 2 VERY small faint grubby marks on the white area of the cover, barely ANY rubbing, and NO writing!!!!  The cover must grade Very Good+ if not better!!!!  THIS LP IS SERIOUSLY RARE AND VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO LOCATE - SO DONT MISS OUT ON THIS AMAZING OPPORTUNITY!!!!
