********ON HOLD******** Managed to pick up a minter of this brilliant and tough item. One which has gone down well when I've played it out. It has some very faint heat damage along the right hand side (can't see it in the scan and it isn't that easy to spot anyway). This does cause a small amount of 'swoosh' in the opening few bars but once the music kicks in fully, it doesn't notice at all. Otherwise a very clean record with faint label wear. I would look for £175/200 for a minter, £125 for this posted within the UK (overseas shipping extra). Paypal F&F or bank transfer.
