The record grades Excellent. The vinyl surfaces on both sides are clean and bright,with no
deep scratches or scuffs on either side. there s just a few non- sounding surface hairline
scratches.
The record play on both sides without major faults,without clicks or skips with just mild background
noise static ,here and there .A note about background noise: Even new and Near Mint records
have background noise .I have been collecting records for over 53 years now and there is no
such thing as a completely noise free record .Bottom line is that,this record sounds just fine
and i am being very critical and conservative.
This is a rock album and it s meant to be played loud and when it is,it sounds outstanding
This record cover grades Excellent This beautiful glossy MacNeill Press Ltd. laminated is
one of the top five that I have ever seen .It s a BEAUTY It has retained its gloss and shine
to the front and back covers .There are no seam splits,tears,writing or any other damage.
There are some trivial signs of storage and a few laminate pinches,a couple of corner bumps,
there is light laminate lifting to the front and back covers near the spine edge,this is common
with this sleeve and is caused by the laminate being pulled too highly over the sleeve in
the manufacturing process see scans .Again,one of the best covers I have ever seen.
Comes with the original die cut poly lined inner sleeve.
