This record is in excellent condition. It has some spindle marks and rubbing visible on each label but there are no pen marks or stains anywhere. There is minimal wear around the centres and these are not loose or worn.
As for the vinyl itself, both sides have a lovely lustre and have nothing remotely serious showing in normal light. There is however a few faint minor sleeve 'scuffs' showing in places and the odd thin faint line visible. There is also a few more thin light wispy lines or faint sleeve marks visible under bright light but not loads and of course nothing remotely deep or serious. So overall the record is used but is in good shape, has a lovely lustre and shows only minor light lines in places.
I play tested the record and it played really well and sounded great throughout. It lays flat on the deck and upon playing there is next to no movement noticeable in the record arm. The sound produced is excellent with no distortion caused by excessive use and of course no skips, sticks or annoying clicks. There was only the most minimal hint of surface noise in places and of course nothing at all severe. Overall the whole album was a pleasure to play test and I noted little other than really nice, solid EX+ audio throughout.
The sleeve is in good- condition. It has considerable wear and rubbing to the edges and corners which has caused a 1" split in the centre of the bottom edge and a much larger 4" split in the centre of the top edge(pics). Other than the edge wear there is creasing, ring marks, grubbiness and indentations to each side, There is no pen marks or scuffs but there is a 1cm tear to the front right(record entry) edge. So overall a generally fairly shabby sleeve with the splits, creasing, wear, grubbiness as mentioned. Please study the pictures provided to gain as much information as possible as to its condition.Its original inner sleeve has gone missing unfortunately and so it will be sent in a brand new plain white replacement.
