1989
Australian release
Cover is in very good condition. meaning there are no seam splits, no tears and no personal writing with only light edgewear from normal handling. The inner printed lyric sleeve is included.
New plastic liner sleeve
The vinyl is in good condition, visually examined carefully under a bright White halogen light source and I can see NO scratches or marks on each side of the record. Just looking at the vinyl is not a great way to judge the condition so I then played the ENTIRE album, every track, and it is then that I struck a problem ...
While the complete album plays very nicely, unfortunately Side 1, track 1 (She'll Be Coming Around The Mountain) has a glitch right at the opening bars ... two mistracks in fact. I took a much closer look at the vinyl and there is the dreaded "careless handling of the tonearm" scratch right at the beginning. Once the two mistracks are done with, the rest of the track (and in fact the rest of the whole album) play very nicely. There are no issues with surface noise nor clicks/pops - a really fun "Australian flavoured" album for the kids.
