Rod Stewart - Every Picture Tells A Story (Classic Edition)
Mercury Records
Cat# 6338 063 (Blue Label Repress)
1972
Australian release
Tri-fold cover is in good condition, no writing and relatively clean but the top edge in particular has some light handling wear due to the tri-fold design. The cover opens up from the bottom (the top edge is the seam, not on the side as you might expect. A small area of previous retail label damage at the top, left hand corner.
New inner plastic sleeve
Vinyl is in good condition, visually inspected under a bright white halogen light source and I can see just a couple of very light scratches on Side A but Side B has more and slightly "heavier". Just looking at a vinyl record isn't good enough so I then played both sides of this release ENTIRELY, every single track, and Side A has no issues with surface noise or click/pops and Side B just some occasional click/pops can be heard (not at high level though)
New outer plastic protective sleeve
Tracks: Reason To Believe, That's All Right Mama, Tomorrow Is Such A Long Time, Seems Like A Long Time, I Know I'm Losing You, Mandolin Wind, Every Picture Tells A Story, Maggie May
