Labels :

Classic UK 1st Press Orange Warner Bros labels Both sides are FANTASTIC with NO real signs of age, NO writing, NO stickers, and NO tears whatsoever Just has a small black dot to the left of side A from manufacture and only a very small amount of ultra light spindle marks which suggests that this has barely had any play over the years at all AWESOME for a 46 year old record Both must grade overall at the very least as Excellent minus

Record : Visual -

Spectacular Original 1970 UK 1st Press Vinyl Nice bright, clean and shiny as if it was just pressed Fantastic jet black mirror like surfaces, it looks INCREDIBLE with NO nasty scratches, groovewear, or nasty deep scuffs whatsoever The only blemishes off perfection are just a few of the lightest, wispy sleeve traces, literally one or two incredibly light hairlines, and a TINY amount of mega mild non sounding paper scuffs only visible in strong angled light mostly caused from where it has sat or been removed from it s cover over the years Of course, none of these ULTRA light blemishes interfere with play AT ALL PHENOMENAL for a record of this age and rarity AWESOME condition - you ll be amazed by how generally clean and unworn it is Must grade overall at the very least as Excellent minus graded STRICTLY to the UK RRPG standards, not overgraded AT ALL Customer satisfaction is of 100 importance to me

Record : Audio -

Thankfully, it plays AMAZINGLY with fantastic stereo separation and clarity It really sounds incredible with NO hisses, hops, distortion, sticks OR skips Only like nearly ALL records has only a few ultra light ticks on very rare occasions, and just the MEREST TOUCH of low level static in the rarest few and far between places such as on the run in grooves and between some tracks, but that s about it The vast, vast, majority of the music is TRULY crystal clear - It really does mostly play with a CD-like near black silence, but with that depth, bass, warmth and clarity you can only get from UK 1st Press vinyl EVEN most of the quiet sections Absolutely ESSENTIAL ASTONISHING for a record of this age and rarity Must grade overall audibly as Excellent graded STRICTLY to the UK RRPG standards, not trashed or overgraded AT ALL Customer satisfaction is of 100 importance to me

Sleeve :

Original 1970 UK 1st press unlaminated GL sleeve complete with original inner IMPOSSIBLE to find this sleeve in anything approaching a good condition - most are spent, torn and worn due to age and the lifestyles of the buyers of this particular LP This one is NOT, and looks BRILLIANT, especially considering the nature of these fragile sleeves NO tears, NO writing OR graffiti, NO seam splits, and still ULTRA strong and solid after all these years Only has a few mild signs of light ageing such as just a small amount of light creases and the merest hint of a record imprint, only the very slightest hint of whitening to very rare parts of the bottom seam from where it has sat on the shelf over the years being extremely picky here - truly next to nothing and absolutely NO splits whatsoever and possibly just the very slightest touch of the mildest ink rubbing in few and far between places barely anything at all , a touch of denting to the four corners which basically ALL vintage LP s have, and POSSIBLY just to be sure one or two other minor signs of age here and there, though nothing that really stands out to note at all And that s truly about it I tend to bring it down by listing the every minor negative I can possibly find, but this remains a MAGNIFICENT sleeve, and a TRUE rarity to find one as absolutely outstanding as this - most have been virtually destroyed or are just about being held together, but not this one It remains ultra strong, solid, unsplit and unspoilt, and even the spine remains ultra strong, solid, unsplit and 100 readable Must grade overall at least as Very Good graded STRICTLY to the UK RRPG standards, not trashed or overgraded AT ALL Customer satisfaction is of 100 importance to me

I ve realized that most countries have their own unique grading system. I base mine strictly on the UK RRPG grading system occasionally with a or a - to indicate the higher and lower ends of the grade, though I only use these if i m having real trouble deciding , so please check their chart for further clarity if you are unsure of what my grades mean. As a general rule, a mint record will be 100 perfect, an excellent record will be in fantastic clean condition with the occasional mild mark and minor use from the years, and a very good record will have noticeable, yet light visual markings and obvious signs of age and use, but will still remain clean with relatively light wear and will play fantastically well with plenty of life remaining in it. I very rarely offer records below the very good region unless they are of an EXCEPTIONAL rarity and playing quality...I hope this helps
