Leonard Cohen - Recent Songs
CBS Records
Cat# 86097
1979 - original issue not a subsequent reissue
UK release
Cover is in good condition, light handling wear to the spine and on the rear a couple of areas have small graphic damage. Seams are fine and no tears. Original thick inner printed sleeve is included although it has quite distinctive mildew type marks on both sides - otherwise it is in good condition.
SPECIAL NOTE: Something strange about the print on this cover, on the front it feels slighty "tacky", the rear even more so - just like it had recently been printed! Attempts to clean the rear of the cover end up removing some of the colouring so I stopped immediately. Didn't touch the front of the cover at all....too risky.
New inner rice paper sleeve
Vinyl is in very good - excellent condition, inspected under a white halogen light source and I can see just a couple of very light scratches on each side so I have played both sides - no problems at all with surface noise, sometimes a little low level background surface noise but that's all.
New outer protective sleeve
Tracks: The Guests, Humbled In Love, The Window, Came So Far For Beauty, The Lost Canadian, The Traitor, Our Lady Of Solitude, The Gypsy's Wife, The Smokey Life, Ballad Of The Absent Mare
