CONDITION: (vinyl/cover) NM/NM ***TOP COPY!*** (Please read detailed information below!)

The amazing debut from these pioneers in the second wave of Swedish progressive. Has all the right ingredients and more than well-crafted musicianship all the way. This is a top copy and is really tough to score nowadays...

COVER; the unlaminated gatefold cover is in fantastic condition, with just some insignificant wear at the corners. Clearly graded as NEAR MINT.

VINYL; the vinyl shows great lustre with just some very light hairlines visible under strong light from some angles. Visually graded as NEAR MINT. It plays pretty much flawless and is aurally graded as NEAR MINT.

LABELS; both labels are very clean with just the most insignificant rubbing near the centrehole. Nice.

EXTRA; comes with original poster in pristine condition.

GOLDMINE GRADING STANDARDS

MINT ---- It should appear to be perfect. No scuffs or scratches, blotches or stains, labels or writing, tears or splits. Mint means perfect.

NEAR MINT ---- Otherwise mint but has one or two tiny inconsequential flaws that do not affect play. Covers should be close to perfect with minor signs of wear or age just becoming evident: slight ring-wear, minor denting to a corner, or writing on the cover should all be noted properly.

VERY GOOD PLUS ---- The record has been handled and played infrequently or very carefully. Not too far from perfect. On a disc, there may be light paper scuffs from sliding in and out of a sleeve or the vinyl or some of the original lustre may be lost. A slight scratch that did not affect play would be acceptably VG+ for most collectors.

VERY GOOD ---- Record displays visible signs of handling and playing, such as loss of vinyl lustre, light surface scratches, groove wear and spindle trails. Some audible surface noise, but should not overwhelm the musical experience. Usually a cover is VG when one or two of these problems are evident: ring wear, seam splits, bent corners, loss of gloss, stains, etc.

GOOD ---- Well played with little lustre and significant surface noise. Despite defects, record should still play all the way through without skipping. Several cover flaws will be apparent, but should not obliterate the artwork.

POOR ---- Any record or cover that does not qualify for the above "Good" grading should be seen as Poor. Several cover flaws
