Mellin Ltd.The sleeve is the UK variant & not the south African variant it has lots of wear, with very some fading, & damage (please see photos for more detail).Having played the LP today & whilst I'm not a professional record grader, when you hold the Vinyl up to the light you could see some small fine hairlines on both sides, however running a finger over both surfaces you couldn't feel any marks & you can't hear them when the record is played.When playing the vinyl there are no flaws on either side such as skip, stick, repetitive clicks / ticks, loud pop, there is some very light crackle between tracks on both sides, but this disappears once the tracks starts & you can't hear any distortion or hiss throughout the tracks.Track Listing :1.
