I hear you asking, what on earth is NUDE VINYL?!?!
I am sorting through a large amount of vinyl (finally after 100+ days of Covid-19 lockdown I can get access to them again!) and I have a number of interesting albums that some low life has taken the cover off and not returned it!
Nude means exactly this ...
Vinyl record, exactly as described below
New inner plastic liner sleeve
New outer white cardboard sleeve (completely unmarked)
New outer protective sleeve
I know the covers and the pictures on albums are what makes vinyl so much fun and interesting but it's also about the music ... this offering is just the music and no pretty/interesting pictures or information (other than that on the record label)

Vinyl record is in good condition, visually inspected under a white halogen light source and I can see a number of light scratches on either side. I then played both sides ENTIRELY, every single track, and listened carefully. Yes, the surface noise is slightly higher in level than normal and there is the occasional low level click or pop (but absolutely no horrible nasties!) - a great nostalgic trip down memory lane with the band, just fantastic! and there is some underlying surface noise at times, it does not detract from a great listen - this music is outstanding, very nice rock n roll - rock.
