CONDITION
Cover & Inner-sleeve: EXCELLENT
Light crease on the front and light wear on edges. Nice and solid - excellent condition for a sleeve of this type.
Labels: EXCELLENT
A fine looking set with a moderate amount of spindle trails around each centre hole.
Visual: EXCELLENT
Both playing surfaces are clean with just some light surface wear caused mainly by inner-sleeve storage.
Audio: EXCELLENT
Easily the finest sounding of their early stereo albums, this 1st class sounding disc retains all of its warm & clarity throughout with no clicks, pops or groove/playwear. Play-check did detect a little low-level vinyl background in the usual places i.e. 'I'll Follow the Sun' & 'Mr Moonlight', but no clicks, pops or any other issues or distractions. A very enjoyable listen!
