Description

As many of you may know, this is the rare "unboxed" mono Decca version, considered to be the best sounding mix of this LP available. I tend to agree.

As far as condition goes, this is a decent play copy. It's not a "mint" or "stunning" copy or any of those other BS terms you continuously see used here on EBay, but I play tested it through on my VPI Scout and Ortofon Bronze cartridge and it played fine. No skips, some surface noise between tracks (which would likely be reduced with a dedicated mono set-up, which I'm not running at the moment), and overall a solid play copy. I would give the overall condition of the LP a visual VG, but plays at least VG+. This is an honest grade and not some trumped up grade to try and sell the record.

The cover is the laminated Decca Mono gatefold version. No significant seam splits, looks good for the age and holds the record just fine. Has the original "written by Mick Jagger and Keith Richard" credit on the back, signifying a first press.
