Nice nostalgic video clip around a city I know very well, Dunedin
THE HIT ALBUM - Compilation (original artists)
CBS Records
Cat# HITLP 001
1984
New Zealand release
Cover is in good (minus) condition, no seam splits, no writing but it looks to have been handled a fair bit although no tearing. All clean but just a bit "tired" looking.
New plastic inner sleeve is supplied
Vinyl is in good (minus) condition, visually inspected under a white halogen light source and I can see quite a few very light ~ light scuff marks or scratches on either side, particularly Side A. But a simple visual inspection is often not good enough to judge vinyl records so I then played both sides ENTIRELY, every single track. Surface noise is slightly elevated at times but still of a low level, the music "buries" the elevated surface noise! I did note some "click click click" on Side 1 Track 3 (The War Song - Culture Club) and right towards the end of the last track on Side 1 there is a "swishing sound" as Sade is finishing her song "Your Love Is King". All other tracks were fine, overall a good playback of these 'old school' songs.
NO mis-tracking at all!
Supplied in new outer protective plastic sleeve
