CONDITION
DISCVisual: EXCELLENT -
Both playing surfaces are clean & glossy showing just a couple of light surface marks in strong daylight but nothing we would call a scratch. Closer examination directly directly beneath halogen light reveals little more than some harmless wispy inner-sleeve storage/removal marks and a sparkling rainbow shine. Both labels are bright and clean with a small collection of light spindle marks around each centre hole.
Audio: EXCELLENT
Played with care on quality equipment only, the sound quality overall is rich and clear with a warmth and presence missing from any other subsequent cutting or pressing. Aside from some light background between tracks and on some quieter passages, there is little to fault on this great sounding pressing.
Cover: EXCELLENT -
A clean and strong example with glossy front and rear laminates displaying a faint disc impression form storage slight storagewear rubbing, but no further significant signs of wear. All corners are in nice shape with no heavy bumps or bruising and both opening edges are sharp and unworn. Both seams are unstressed and the spine is clean and fully worded.
Clean & flat with no tears or seam splits.
