Tracklisting & More Information

More Information
The sleeve with this example is printed with the Island logo and Basing Street address along the bottom edge on the rear. This was only present on the first issue sleeves. The second issue had a slightly different shade of green on the front, manufactured from a thicker card and the back just has a small 'i' logo where the address is printed on the first issue. The tracklisting lists track 4 as Day Is Done and track 5 as Way To Blue.

Condition
The matt sleeve leaves nowhere to hide - there is ring/shelfwear fading evident to the green border, although nothing drastic and a little edgewear and corner rubbing. The reverse has little sign of wear and interior has just a small area of discolouration to the top on both sides.

The labels as previously stated are the black block 'i' logo design, and they remain very clean with no paper loss or writing. There are just a few faint spindle marks indicating very limited play indeed.

The matrix numbers are machine stamped into the 'dead wax' areas:

ILPS 9105 A-2
ILPS 9105 B-2

The vinyl retains a deep sheen and visually is easily Excellent throughout with minimal signs of play.

We have professionally cleaned and playtested and can confirm that there is neglible ambient noise during playback giving at least Excellent reproduction.

Not Mint, but an ideal copy of this extremely hard to find first issue.
