Sound quality of the record is great and I consider the condition to be Very Good to Excellent – there are some minor clicks on playback in one or two places. The sleeve has not been cared for to the same standard and I consider this to be generally good, although a sticker has been pulled off on the front (see white mark top right) and taken some of the laminate surface with it so I am grading it as Fair to Good for this reason. See grading guide below. When all’s said and done this is an important record made in a period of invention and experimentation, and it’s a cracking album. Please email if you have any questions, and thank you for looking. Neil Record Collector Magazine's Grading Guide: "MINT: The record itself is in brand new condition with no surface marks or deterioration in sound quality. The cover and any extra items such as the lyric sheet, booklet or poster are in perfect condition. Records advertised as Sealed or Unplayed should be Mint. EXCELLENT: The record shows some signs of having been played, but there is very little lessening in sound quality. The cover and packaging might have slight wear and / or creasing. VERY GOOD: The record has obviously been played many times, but displays no major deterioration in sound quality, despite noticeable surface marks and the occasional light scratch. Normal wear and tear on the cover or extra items, without any major defects, is acceptable. GOOD: The record has been played so much that the sound quality has noticeably deteriorated, perhaps with some distortion and mild scratches. The cover and contents suffer from folding, scuffing of edges, spine splits, discolouration, etc. FAIR: The record is still just playable but has not been cared for properly and displays considerable surface noise; it may even jump. The cover and contents will be torn, stained and / or defaced. POOR: The record will not play properly due to scratches, bad surface noise, etc. The cover and contents will be badly damaged or partly missing. BAD: The record is unplayable or might even be broken, and is only of use as a collection filler."
