INSIDE THE GATEFOLD IT STILL HOLDS ITS ORIGINAL VIBRANT COLOURS, WITH ABOUT SIX VERY TINY SPOT MARKS ( PLEASE SEE PHOTO ) :: THIS REALLY IS A VERY NICE SOLID COVER AND WITH THE OPENING EDGE STILL SHARP AND NOTHING ELSE TO REPORT, I WOULD GRADE ::  A VERY STRONG EX . 

VINYL :: THE AUDIO PLAYS BEAUTIFUL, AND IS NEAR FAULTLESS, AND EVEN BETWEEN TRACKS, RUN INS, AND RUN OFF'S THERE IS SILENCE. ALL I HEARD WAS ONE FAINT TICK IN THE MIDDLE OF SIDE 1, AND THAT'S ALL !!! VISUALLY SPOTLESS, AND AWAY FROM BRIGHT LIGHT THE VINYL STILL HOLDS ITS ORIGINAL SHINE, AND ONLY UNDER BRIGHT LIGHT CAN YOU SEE A COUPLE OF FAINT SMALL COSMETIC FINE HAIRLINES, WHICH ARE NOTHING TO WORRY ABOUT AS THEY ARE HARMLESS!!! THIS REALLY IS AN AMAZING PLAYING EARLIEST PRESS, AND THIS IS NOT OVERGRADE JUST A WELL LOVED AND LOOKED AFTER VINYL, AND I WOULD GRADE THE AUDIO :: EX++/NEAR MINT .

ORIGINAL LYRIC INNER :: NO WRITING, JUST A SMALL SEAM SPLIT IN THE MIDDLE ON THE BOTTOM EDGE :: EX .
