This 55 year old vinyl plays through superbly my opinion! Clear and very vibrant with that deep bassey feel , only found like this on these earliest mono originals! I heard (no) loud constant clicks or pops during the main audio and amazingly no real nasty surface or background static during the audio and importantly no distortion or signs that this has been overplayed at all!

Please note, THIS IS THE ORIGINAL . The Cover The original Original UK PRESS E.J.Day & Co Ltd Printed. super glossy laminated front, with large flipbacks at the rear of the cover! Overall exceptionally clean concidering that this is 55 years old. There are no real nasty creases on the front worth to mention. Very minor edge creases noted on the front in the laminate and minor light lines at the spine edges but in my opinion nothing too bad at all. The rear is generally clean and free of any handwriting any marks/fading are light only in my opinion. Some creases noted at the flipbacks but very very clean in general very rare to find like this indeed!. This cover must grade at least better than excellent in my opinion.
