This is one of my treasured vinyls from when I grew up in New Zealand
I LOVE music, all music but its now time to find a new home for these records.
I am hoping this vinyl will find it's way to someone who also appreciates great (or quirky) New Zealand originated music.
This vinyl was last played about 30 years ago (until today) and then put away, bought over to Australia and then put away in safe/dry storage once again (upright)
My background is technical, particularly relating to the professional music/audio industry and because of this I give a LOT of detail about what I am offering.
Prior to advertising this vinyl, it has had a standard wet wash & vacuum and dry.
The vinyl is first visually inspected and then played ENTIRELY. None of this "played the first 30 seconds" stuff, what good is that!
Visual inspections can be deceptive, the only real way to judge a record is to actually play the whole record entirely (unless still sealed of course)

New Zealand release - THIS IS THE 1987 REISSUE OF THE 1986 ORIGINAL
1987
Cover is in very good - excellent condition, edges are all great, one tiny dot on the front opening edge near the bottom seam. Rear looks great. No seam damage, no tears no splits and no writing. Includes the special "record shaped" inner printed sheet (white on black paper).
New plastic inner sleeve
Vinyl is in good - very good condition, inspected under a white halogen light source, I can see nothing of any significance on Side B BUT Side A has quite a long mark (not really a scratch) going from the run-in area to the middle of track 3.
I then played both sides entirely, and there are no issues with surface noise or clicks/pops at all - even in the area of the mark mentioned above - it's all fine.
