Another vinyl from my 1970's - 80's collected vinyl from my youthful days in NZ
Nico is different, very different! At the time, she was part of and surrounded by rich musical influences the likes of Lou Reed, The Velvet Underground and Andy Warhol. This music takes your head into realms that no other can ...

New Zealand release
Cover is in very good condition, practically unmarked (which is amazing considering the colouring used) except for a little depression near her lips (to the right of). Edges are in great condition, as is the opening side. Absolutely no tears or seam splits. No writing on the cover. Side A, Last track printed on the rear is incorrectly named Das Lied Von Einsanen Madchens instead of Das Lied Vom Einsamen Mädchen
New inner plastic liner sleeve
Vinyl is in very good condition, inspected under a white halogen light source and I can see just a couple of very light marks (they don't look like scratches) on each side.
I then played both sides of this album and there are no problems with surface noise or even clicks/pops - very nice music if somewhat strange!
New outer protective sleeve
Tracks: Camera Obscura, Tananore, Win A Few, My Funny Valentine, Das Lied Vom Einsamen Mädchen, Fearfully In Danger, My Heart Is Empty, Into The Arena, Konig
