1983
New Zealand release
Cover is in good condition, no seam splits, no writing however some "grubbiness" to the front cover in particular (white is such a poor choice from a record cover) and on the front/top right hand corner is the remanents of an ID label.
The front lower right hand side also has some marks/small hole as this is where the heavy object hit the record.
The rear of the cover top/left corner has some graphic damage/lifting too - liquid spill which stuck the cover to another piece of card and separation lifted the small area of graphics.
New inner plastic sleeve
Vinyl is in very good condition EXCEPT Side A Track 1, I had an unfortunate mishap with this vinyl and a heavy object fell onto track 1!
NO OTHER TRACK IS AFFECTED
NO VINYL CRACK!
So what happened to Side A track 1?
See the mark/hole on the front cover? that's where the vinyl underneath suffered the hit. Two marks are visible, one is out in the lead-in area before the music begins. The other is the main issue, it measures 5-6mm long.
The song begins, the instrumental intro is fine, guitar plays then along comes the kick then up comes the snare drum - here SOMETIMES there is a missed beat, other times not. On it rolls, you can now hear the dreaded rhythmic clicks (low level) then ...
Around 30 seconds in, it gets a little "hairy" - I heard up to 3 mis-tracks from this point until around 50 seconds play time. After 50 seconds, the torture ceases and all is well with the world.
Now these 3 mis-tracks are beat "skips" or part of a word like "Three blind ....(mice was skipped) see how they run" - the tonearm does NOT go drifting off all over the place!
Once the 50 second point is reached, that's the end of the mark and onwards plays the band - the remainder of Side A and ALL of Side B are fantastic - really good play.
Quite frankly the mark looks worse than it sounds.
