Audio: Play tested -8/10 Sounds fantastic - an enjoyable listen without undue crackle or pops. A record that has been respectfully played - not abused. Usual minor light static/crackle at the start of each side that doesn't continue beyond the first few seconds ...No annoying loud pops or clicks, needless to say: no jumps, skips or ticks. Cover: EX+ the US pressing always suffers from ring wear and this is a rarity because it has none - see photos: A couple of corner creases but otherwise No significant creasing, no slits or tears On the back cover the "line" above Noel's hair is a fault inherent in the printing - not damage. Comes with 2 x Reprise inner sleeves. Appears to be a Pitman Factory Pressing - all sides from the mother stampers but early pulls can have "drag marks" in the polymer - not on the polymer.
